How to use it

• To sew a foot button, make several passes through the holes and then wrap the thread under the button to create a strong stem.
• Choose an elongated eye needle or a 90 to 100 jeans needle so that the thread passes without fraying.
• Use it in a bobbin for strong decorative stitching, lengthening the stitch.
• On the machine, loosen the tension of the upper thread a little to avoid gathers on the fabric.
