UPDATED: How to Use an Automatic Buttonhole Foot| Button hole sewing |One Step Buttonhole Tutorial

In this video, we show you how to use and install the One Step Automatic Buttonhole Foot. It can also be called the Automatic button hole foot or a one step buttonhole foot. This foot makes button hole sewing a breeze. Create perfectly sized buttonholes for the exact button you are using on your project. No more guesswork or uneven buttonholes! Sewing buttonholes is great for creating drawstring holes- not just for buttons.

In this video, I show you the Babylock Verve buttonhole foot; however, the concept is the same for any sewing machine that has the one step buttonhole option.

I also show you a sensor buttonhole foot, a 4-step button hole foot, and a snap on buttonhole foot. Seeing multiple types of buttonhole feet make it easier for you to determine what kind you have or what kind you would like.

Hi, may I know your good name.. as you suggested, went through page 36 in brother LX27NT for g etting equal thickness in button hole. It’s mentioned, that using fine adjustment screw, we can set equal thicknes. You must be knowing know, which side should we turn the screw ‘+’ or ‘-‘ sign, . Pl ease tell know. I have been trying to adjust it towards plus sign point by doing trials. Still didn’t get. So only asking you again. Sorry for the trouble.. pls don’t mind. 😊

Just got one and had no idea what I was doing. Glad I found this before I returned it.

I've been sewing for a while now and I never knew how to use this so I really appreciate this video....

I just bought a compatible buttonhole foot for my singer Quantum 9960 stylus. The part number that singer either does not make anymore or I cannot find it anywhere, is #HP32948. The compatible foot in your video does NOT look like the one I was sent by singeronline. It looks to me that the one you have here would work in the 9960. Can you check to see which one will work? My problem with the one I just recieved is that the upright bar on the foot does NOT seem to work with the buttonhole lever on the quantum...thanks

thank you for this! can you also do tips on how to do buttonholes on denim waistbands, or any thick/uneven fabric?

Very clear and such a great refresher! Haven't done much with buttonholes in quite awhile!

[frederickkirkland]

Very informative, I am a beginner and would like to know more about sewing.

I've had very good results using the automatic buttonhole foot that came with my 4452 Singer machine. However...it doesn't allow for making buttonholes for larger buttons! I would very much appreciate information regarding purchasing an automatic buttonhole that can make buttonholes for larger buttons. I await the collective experience response for this, sadly waiting to be able to finish my Painter Coat. Thank you anyone who can help me on this!
