I've watched dozens of videos, checked the manual, and asked an online group of people and no one could help me. THIS video helped. My old singer was a little stuck and I tried testing it so many times without lifting the lever back up to reset the machine. Resetting and giving it a little nudge did the trick. Thank you for explaining that!!!!

[@macuisinesanssulfites4101]

Yes! Also make sure your bobbin is full. This stitch uses a lot of thread, and I didn’t realize it until I ended up with one button hole only half way done, which meant I had to remove all the stitches and start all over. 😩

[@ravenbyrd106]

Ha! It took me about 59 tries but I got it. The key to this is to 1. Have patience, but 2. To NOT TAKE YOUR TIME lol that will only cause the thread to build up on the fabric and eventually your needle will get stuck in the pile up or break. You have to slam on the foot peddle and allow it to go as fast as possible then BOOM... A buttonhole. Thanks for this awesome video❤️

[@denizeren8525]

I’ve been going back to this video for years every time I need to sew a buttonhole. I followed the official Singer video and no matter what I did it wouldn’t work, I thought something was defective until this video. Thank you!!!

[@RosalindElizabeth]

Thank you “sew” much. I’ve been sewing for years and never use this type of buttonhole foot. Once again, a thanks.

[@berniecelee5062]

I have been so scared of making button holes so I avoided any projects with button holes. I will give it a shot and see how I do. Thank you 🙏🏻 so much for the explanation .

[@Linny-Lou]

Fabulous! I just spent the past hour trying to make a buttonhole using the Manual instructions. Until I watched your video, I did not know there was a hidden buttonhole lever that I had to pull down! Thank you!!!

[@littlepearls4846]

Definitely the best tutorial out there, I couldn't figure out the buttonhole foot until I followed this video. Thank you so much!!

[@JPFCustoms]

This tutorial is better then the official singer tutorial thank you 🙏🏼

[@tristandash3337]

I guess it's kind of randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to stream newly released tv shows online?

[@dakarijamari8946]

@Tristan Dash flixportal :P

[@tristandash3337]

@Dakari Jamari thank you, signed up and it seems to work =) I appreciate it !

[@dakarijamari8946]

@Tristan Dash glad I could help :)

[@tonialong9277]

Can I get a larger buttonhole maker for larger buttons

[@rebeccahempe6699]

Thank you for the button hole tutorial. Teaching a young student on this machine and had no idea we needed to push the lever backwards!

[@wendyhughes2234]

Thank you for this tutorial. Very much appreciated! May you and your ministry be blessed.

[@AidanMakesStuffIGuess]

Very straight forward video that explains the parts you might get confused on throughly. Thank you so much!

[@Sewingmastery]

happy to help

[@tinikacarrington6442]

OMG!!! I now feel confident in making a button hole, thank you so much❤

[@DeadEye428]

Thank god for this video. Didnt even know you could use the button to configure the hole template. For anyone whose machine is just making balls of thread in one place, pushing that little lever back will get you on track.

[@erinlyy]

Thank you so much!!! I was struggling until I saw your comment, finally got my first button hole done!!!! ❤ thx!

[@alfredopalomo372]

Thank you. i went through a few tutorials until finally found the best one.

[@duanesmith2105]

Omg thank you so much. You’re the best teacher. Great lesson on buttonhole. Now I have to see if you have a video on threading. I just got this new machine for Christmas. My other one is 29 yrs old. 😂😂

[@bernadettehawes]

I found that buttonhole foot so intimidating until I watched this video. Heck I forgot I had 4 dials! (Still a new user) I don’t use the manual. I’m a visual learner so a clear video is brilliant. This is the first buttonhole one I came across and it’s brilliant. Will give a like and a comment so it continues to be deservedly at the top! Thank you!

[@katherinemcelroy7846]

I agree with all the comments that you unlocked the secret of making a buttonhole on this machine! The Singer video was not at all clear. Thank you!🙂

[@Tiannaksm]

Bless you! I've had this machine for years and couldn't figure out how to use this foot!

[@chianacharity215]

This was great thank you! No one ever mentions the machine settings, thats what I was looking for!!

[@katjatanis2977]

The singer app does not tell you what to do at all and this video was such a quick and very clear tutorial! Thank you! :D

[@barbevcl917]

Thanks, I just purchased the 44S, my 4411 presser foot take up lever broke. $150 to f8x it. I needed to make sure I didn’t break anything. You know sometimes your so eager, you don’t pay attention. Well I did. Thanks appreciate your time. 🤗🤗💕💕

[@PrettyOptimisst]

Thank you thank you thank you!! I've been like three hours trying to figure this out, but this tutorial was the most useful!!❤

[@amymeseberg4030]

Thank you so much. I watched many videos but you are the best.

[@michelleberlijn6330]

Thank you sooooo much for all these videos. I had never used a machine like this before and it’s so easy to learn with you! 😊😊

[@carmencastilla2072]

Thankyou very much for this tutorial . I lost without this video . You saved me .

[@agapi_nikolaou]

This was the most useful tutorial in the whole KZbin! Thank you so much!

[@mubarakbinlimerick9446]

Thanks for the tutorial! I had never done buttonholes before and it's much easier than I thought!

[@kckazcoll1]

thank you, I had to remind myself how to make buttonholes on the singer HD as it's been a long time since I last did them :)

[@ladycactus110]

Thank you, this was so helpful! I got stuck for a while because I didn’t pull the “PUSH” thingy down far enough. Finally figured it out.

[@user-ic5fo1um9k]

I was here for the same problem, She is great !!!! I was about to return it tomorrow :) problem solved 👌

[@MyYTReplyNotificationsAreOff]

even the official singer buttonhole tutorial did not mention that you had to push the buttonhole lever BACK as well as down, nor did it mention that you had to pull the lever down all the way, nor did it mention to put it on the buttonhole setting on the wheel or what width to put it at. i kept trying to make it work but, until i watched your video where i found that I didn't push the lever back, it didn't work. thank you so much!

[@bernadettehawes]

I haven’t looked at the singer manual. I would have been crying by now if I had from what you describe. So thrilled for this clear video

[@ashleyehlen6037]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I've owned this machine for over 3 years and can finally use the button hole foot.

[@liadanducky]

Omg best tutorial ever?!!

[@RhinestoneQueenCostumes]

I make buttonholes VERY seldomly because I mostly sew on Lycra making dance costumes - no buttons! But, sewing for my grandbabies, I need buttonholes every now and then. So, each time, I watch your video to refresh my memory. Thanks so much for being there every time!

[@leahfoard-ambrose2293]

This is by far the most helpful video I've watched! Thank you so much for breaking everything down.

[@susilajames6556]

Oh thank you so so much, I send half day trying to do button holl, but don't how but your video just help me a lot. Excellent Tq so much for sharing the tutorial .🙏🥰

[@JulietCrapulet]

[@andag.3713]

[@polaropposites96]

Excellent tutorial. Thanks for covering all settings and observations.

[@lavendertreesdemello9016]

I didn't know I could do this. Thank you so much!

[@ivyyeo3383]

Waw! now I know how to use the gadget, thank you very much , you make it look so easy . I am going to try it now

[@joanneisham2016]

Fantastic!! You saved me so much time and frustration. Thank you!!!

[@anazays66]

Yay! I have succesfully made the button hole..thank you to the video owner. You have made my day. The only problem here my buttonhole push button very hard to go up

[@willaminaviolet]

Thank you for the tutorial...you’re so much better than the Singer instructional!

[@gypsygirl731]

Very cool tutorial. Mine came as a gift handed down with no handbook. Thank you and KZbin for these educational videos.👌

[@dianem9765]

Thank you....I finally understand how to do this!

[@gracythomas2958]

Thank you..your video saved my project

[@blackconch]

Thank you! This video was so helpful - I'e now made the perfect button hole :)

[@aheartofworship27]

Fantastic demo. More informative than the others out there.

[@maryhull531]

Excellent . You are amazing and such a good teacher . This machine is great one for the price .

[@anneellereve8087]

Amazing! It worked right away thanks to your tutorial!

[@amethystanne4586]

The last time I did buttonholes was with my 1970 White machine, using the buttonhole maker attachment with a cam inserted in the bottom of it after opening the little “door”.

[@sweetoneloves6811]

Thank you so much ....it finally work for me . thank you for showing this video

[@nancyfarrell2334]

You are a wonderful teacher. Thank you!

[@allabout4019]

Yay! I just made my first button hole!!

[@phrenologicalmess]

Thank you! The manual doesn't mention the pull-down lever at all?! Was getting so frustrated, watching one minute of your video solved my issue :)

[@carolcronin6773]

Thank you for this super helpful video.

[@DebbieBuckland]

thank you so much. I was wondering why there was the thing at the back lol. gone from an old Elna to a this singer heavy duty machine.... it is slightly different in many ways

[@felitang2207]

Hi I bought a Brand-new Singer Heavy Duty 4423. Please show me how to use Stretch stitch on the T-shirt knit fabric or Stretch fabric. I'm new at sewing so your instructions will be greatly appreciated.

[@mariagdesjardin1000]

Cool! Honestly I have no need for button holes in anything I make, but it looks like so much fun that I'll look for an excuse to try some : )

[@galinaS8775]

Do you know why my machine hitting on one place not moving or start move and gathering fabric , I have new mashine

[@Hannekes]

I had the same but then i found i have to pull that ‘push’ leaver even further down. Really it goes lower and then you can push it back better as well

[@dannim6269]

I’ve tried this and my machine doesn’t move. And all the thread builds up and gets stuck. I did everything like this video. Idk what the problem is

[@danatran6225]

@@dannim6269 I had the same issue, then I noticed in the manual that the "length" was supposed to be somewhere BETWEEN 0 and 1 (I had it at 0) and moved it to halfway between 0 and 1. But I also figured out that I needed to pull the lever farther down before pushing it back - it sticks at a point not quite all the way down to the buttonhole foot - so I'm not sure which adjustment made it work for me.

[@sandranewtond8619]

Thanks so much for this now I get it! If only I had seen this video earlier. God bless.

[@djalcam]

Thank you so much, very easy to follow!

[@thedaintyseamstress]

Thank you soo much for this tutorial ❤❤❤

[@mrsjennifercsweeney]

Thank you.. excellent tutorial! I want to make large buttonhole with a button larger that the attachment, how is this done?

[@LonjeMarie7]

Thank you! You made it very very easy!! I wish TF they would give us a book with these machines.I’m your new subscriber, it’s April 14,2021

[@rumbledelamare3310]

Best tutorial even! I’ve tried for years to make buttonhole but without much success but after watching your tutorial, I can make buttonholes! Haha, I’ve made so many practice ones! Thank you so much. My question is, how do you make a buttonhole for a button measuring 4cm in diameter?

[@AngelMarie85]

I’m going to attempt a button hole this week, after that area is sewn, do I just use scissors to cut out the middle section?

[@sunseekermama]

Thank you sooo much! I had no idea that button hole lever was even there! You saved me from pulling my hair out! LOL

[@junecorbin860]

Does the leaver stays down or how it goes back in place

[@ceejay-ct]

Thank you so much 🙏🌸for this tutorial made my life so much easier as I am a beginner to sewing… 💫Now I just want to sew buttons 😂

[@Cee1505]

Sometimes at the end of step 4 I hit the reverse button and go back to the top for a thicker button hole on the right side. It's easier than adjusting the button on the right side of the machine. I will try adjusting the tension to 3. That would be easier then either of the options I've tried!

[@Be_Kind7683]

Im glad I took the time to watch this....

[@DLWSHP1010]

Thank you! This video saved me from pulling all my hair out! 🤗👍

[@rosemayoodit2492]

Madaĺèna çòùture

[@motilalradha3090]

Nice work handie

[@tania6145]

Thank you I was looking for a tutorial to show me this

[@cesarjm6085]

Thanks, I am very very happy, this it is the best tutorial.

[@jadebabydoll23]

Thank thank thank you for this!

[@Mjl449]

Do you then take a pair of scizzors and snip the fabric to make the hole? Or do you cut the hole prior to? I’m a total newbie at this!

[@accc9090]

You snip after the buttonhole is made on the machine.

[@Elizabeth42069]

i use a seam ripper for my button holes, just be careful, but for me its easier so i dont end up snipping through the bottom of the hole

[@bevclagg1469]

Thank you!

[@natashabillie6855]

Thank you so much. Your video helped a lot...

[@jenniferdynys2046]

Super helpful! Thank you!

[@Sewingmastery]

You're welcome!

[@patriciastahlecker8241]

My buttonhole is fine going up on the left side but when it starts to come down on the right side it's not sewing it...frustrating!!

[@DJ-wi9yk]

This is so cool

[@milu54sia]

Well, this machine can create only small button holes. What if I would like to have 1.5 inch or longer button hole?

[@nitanice]

Oh, brother. I just tried doing this. Disaster! needle broke, went into bobbin compartment and spun a huge ball of thread. Now, I have to find a "how to change the needle video" and I'll give it a shot again tomorrow!

[@joannewilsonoreilly7858]

Thank you!!

[@denisemcclure8130]

Thank you soooooo much!!!

[@dcn.lyndavaldez4312]

I have my singer set as you instruct, but my the stitch remains in one place. Have stitch length on 1. Can you help me?

[@markfalina9160]

Is there something on this machine which creates the hole for the button? I imagine a knife of some sort would work, but then don't you have to worry about cutting the thread of the outline you've just constructed and fraying of the fabric which has been cut? Some of us are sewers newer than your machine!

[@sleepychimney]

This is brilliant - very comprehensive. Thank u!

[@paulcovert8778]

I've tried and only get a big ball of thread at the starting point

[@alicevalenzuela8282]

Awesome. Thank you.

[@katibh702]

thank you

[@tompeter7326]

Thank you Lady, now I got it :)

[@emh.1178]

Thank you for saving my sanity😅

[@evgeniyaberiozkina5134]

Thank you!!!!!!

[@ems8717]

It has a button option omg so cool

[@SK-kn3ov]

Omg I've been wondering why my satin stitch looks like trash and I've searched everywhere for the answer!! Thank you for the tip about lowering top tension, I'm going to try that immediately

[@kittay1000]

Yes. Yes. Yes. Thank yoooou.

[@alisontoms4986]

I have this machine but the buttonhole gadget won't open wide enough for the large buttons I want to sew onto a jacket.....what can I do?
