Try a variety of buttonholes

摘要

To make a basic buttonhole, straight-stitch a narrow, 1/8-inch-wide continuous rectangle that's as long as your button plus 1/8 inch. Do this through a single layer or through two layers with a second felted layer applied to the wrong side for support. Or, add the second layer as a decorative piece on the garment's right side, as shown in the buttonhole above.
