Description
What is a Buttonhole Buster™, and what is it for? The Buttonhole Buster™ is another problem solving invention from the SN Designs Co., the small company that invented the Original, one and only Hump Jumper®, and the quilter’s third hand, the Puts-it™; the sewing tools that solve such frustrations problems. The Buttonhole Buster™ is Sandy’s solution for sewing buttonholes in those impossible places: collar bands, narrow cuffs, and areas with lumpy, bumpy seams such as thick seam allowance in small places.
The bi-level bottom of the Buttonhole Buster™ is its creative feature. This unique bottom allows the presser foot to fit snug where thick seams cause the general purpose or buttonhole foot to sit unbalanced. Narrow pattern pieces such as collars and neck bands are examples of where seam allowances, on three sides, cause the presser foot to wobble due to uneven thickness.
Using either the general purpose or the buttonhole foot, lower the foot into the grooved-out section of the Buttonhole Buster™ between the long front feet, then sew the buttonhole. The grooved-out area holds the foot in place, the elongated feet press the fabric firmly for a smooth, even feed helping to eliminate skipped stitches, and the metric/inch measures help to gauge the buttonhole length. Placing interfacing between the fashion fabric and the facing will help ensure perfect buttonholes in impossible places: those hard to stitch areas. To help sew buttons with shanks, use the keyhole opening on the opposite end of the feet.
The Buttonhole Buster™; is designed to help you make better buttonholes. Remember, before you start your buttonhole, make sure your have done all the prep work: placement, measure, interfacing if necessary and double check buttonhole length with circumference, and diameter of the chosen button.
The Buttonhole Buster™; is the perfect tool for your hard to sew buttonholes. Adding it to the toolbox, right next to the Hump Jumper®, and Puts-it™; you will have the sewing tools that solve such frustrating problems! Hint – use a piece of Velcro to attach it to your sewing machine, right next to your The Hump Jumper™; they will always be handy when you need them!
