Tips for Sewing Buttons on Garments

Sewing on a button is easy if you can sew. If you can't sew you can probably figure it out. A button should match the hole that you are going to be putting the button into.

A flat button needs to have a little extra space so that you can maneuver the button into the hole and out of the hole. To make sure you keep a space under the button you can put a coin or a match stick under the button as you sew the button in place. A button that is sewn too tightly onto the fabric will be hard to button and unbutton.

If you are sewing on a button that has four holes in it then just sew two holes at a time. First take two of the buttons holes and sew them down to the garment. Then make a knot to hold those two holes onto the garment. After you have sewn the first two holes down then sew the other two holes down onto the garment and make a knot to hold those two holes down. This way if one set of button hole becomes loose and unravels the other two button hole will hold the button in place for some time until you can sew the loose holes back down.

You can make the thread you are using to sew down the buttons easier to pull through the fabric with a little wax. Just pull the thread through an old wax candle before you start to sew on the button to make the thread slide through the fabric easier.

As you sew the button on try to imitate the way that the rest of the buttons are sewn on. If the buttons are sewn on in a vertical pattern then make sure the new button you sew on is sewn in a vertical pattern.

When you sew buttons on don't make your thread too long or you could easily tangle the thread as you are working on the button. And when you do make a knot to hold the button in place put the knot on the underside of the fabric not on top of the button.
