Molly's Sketchbook: Buttonhole Tutorial
I always thought that making buttonholes with a sewing machine was hard but I was happy to find out that I was wrong. Follow this easy tutorial and you'll be making buttonholes in no time! I'd recommend trying several buttonholes on some scrap fabric before you do it on anything you want to keep. --Molly
Note: I have a Janome Jem sewing machine so these directions are specific to that machine. However buttonholes are very similar no matter what machine you have, as long as it has a buttonhole feature. Consult your sewing machine's manual to figure out the specifics.
