How do I make buttonholes?

Buttonholes

Mark your buttonhole placement carefully, insuring that they are straight and evenly spaced. Read the directions in your sewing machine manual for buttonhole instructions. Practice using the same number of layers of fabric. Don't cut any open until all are sewn so you are sure of proper placement.
