This presser foot for sewing on buttons raises the button slightly off the fabric to give a slight thread shank to enable easy buttoning, and to prevent the button from being sewn too tightly on fabric.

Engage the presser foot extra lift available on your machine to make attaching the presser foot easier.

1. Thread with matching sewing thread on top and in the bobbin. Snap-on the Button Foot.
2. Slide the Retractable Thread Shank Guide into the desired position. All the way back will give you no thread shank. The first position will give you a shorter shank for lightweight fabrics. The second position (all the way forward) will give you a longer thread shank for heavier fabrics.
3. For a button smaller than 1/4” (6 mm), use the Placement Tool. Insert the Button Placement Tool into the holes of the button. Note: Avoid using a button higher than ⅛" (3 mm).
4. Insert the Button Placement Tool with the button in place into the slot in the foot. The button will automatically be placed in the correct position for sewing.
5. Remove the Button Placement Tool.
6. Select “Button Sewing” on your SEWING ADVISOR™ feature. Adjust the Stitch Width if necessary according to the width between the holes in the button.
7. Sew on your button following the instructions in your User’s Guide.
