LESSON 87: BUTTONHOLE POINT

Buttonhole Stitch Tutorial:

We present this Scallop Stitch and Open Scallop Stitch-Buttonhole Stitch tutorial for you to enjoy.

This stitch has a firm edge and is used for cutting work and obviously for buttonholes.

It is worked from left to right, the twisted end is at the bottom.

I work as for scallop stitch, but make the stitches closer together.

In cutting work, the excess fabric is always cut close to the twisted end so that the rest of the fabric does not fray.

From here we invite you to try it and you will be surprised by the effect. I encourage you to try and you will love it.

Follow the tutorial step by step and you will see how while you are sewing you can think of other ways to make other stitches, even combined with all the ones that I am putting here. You can use it both in borders, as in curtains, sheets, towels etc. or as a simple ornament point in one of your paintings. It is best to follow the video step by step here:

Materials

• You need a sharp pointed needle. In your trusted haberdashery they can advise you on this.
• Thimble, we know that it is not easy to get used to it, but the earlier you adapt, the better, you will avoid many punctures.
• Special thread for sewing. Or you can also use fine crochet yarn if it is to decorate something
• Frame, there are made of wood, plastic and silicone. Lately I spend the silicone ones because I like them better, but that goes to taste.
• Light, the more the better and to be able to be natural
