Use the same procedure as automatic buttonhole.
* Set the stitch width to match with the thickness of the
cord used.
With the buttonhole foot raised, hook the filler cord on the
spur at the back of the buttonhole foot.
Bring the ends toward you under the buttonhole foot,
clearing the front end.
Hook the filler cord into the forks on the front of the
automatic buttonhole foot to hold them tight.
Lower the needle into the garment where the buttonhole
will start and lower the foot.

Depress the foot control gently and sew the buttonhole.
Each side of the buttonhole and the bartacks will be sewn

Pull the left end of the filler cord to tighten it.
Thread the end through a darning needle, draw to the wrong
side of the fabric and cut.
