Applications

Bartack Buttonhole for Medium to Heavy Weight Fabrics

The Bartack Buttonhole is the most common style of buttonhole. This wide version of the bartack buttonhole is good for medium to heavyweight fabrics because the cutting space is wider than the Narrow Bartack Buttonhole, so it accommodates the larger buttons used on these types of fabrics. Use a fabric stabilizer underneath to help prevent the dense stitches of the buttonhole from puckering the fabric. Adjust stitch length and stitch width as desired for the thread you are using, as well as, the look you want for your project.
