Greetings to all sewing lovers! Let's talk about such details of our clothes as buttons. They are present in almost all of our things and from time to time they come off, are lost, and they need to be restored. How to sew on a button correctly? Surely, many of you have encountered this problem. Not everyone likes this activity, but sometimes it is simply necessary to do it.

At first glance, it may seem that nothing can be easier than sewing on a button. I think so too, but to my great surprise, some of my clients bring me their things only so that I can sew buttons on them. And, oddly enough, there are women among them.

It would seem that such a thing should not be a problem for women, but not everyone likes to do something with their hands, including sewing on buttons. Although this is not at all difficult to do. But, it is desirable to do it correctly. This is what we're going to do. Perhaps you will learn something new for yourself.

Buttons are different. The most common ones are:

Buttons with two holes

Buttons with four holes

Buttons on the leg (half-leg)

Each of them is used for different types of clothing. It depends on the size of the button and on the product to which it will be sewn. Let's consider some options for such an application. I have prepared a detailed step-by-step photo report. For clarity, I took thick threads and materials of contrasting color, so that you can see better. On real products, it is advisable to select the threads to match the button.

How to sew on a button with two holes

These buttons are used the most. First you need to draw a cross with soap, the center of which will coincide with the center of the button. Tie a tight knot and cut off any excess thread if it sticks out of the knot. Pierce the fabric with a needle as shown in the photo. The knot should be between the lines diagonally, and the needle should come out on the button sewing line.

After that, we put the button on the needle and sew it with several stitches to the fabric. If the thread is folded in half, then it is enough to pierce three times. It is advisable to hit the same punctures. Before completing the process, the needle should be brought out between the fabric and the button on the front side, and tie a knot, grabbing the threads. For strength, it is enough to make two (three) such knots and cut the thread.

Here is the button and sewn on. Pay attention to what the reverse side looks like. There are no knots on it. The threads are straight and concentrated in one place.

How to sew on a four-hole button

These buttons are also used on different types products, from shirts to coats. I took a large button. Since there are more holes in it than in the previous one, there can be many options for sewing. It depends on your imagination. I decided to sew with a diagonal cross, so I positioned the holes at an angle to the intended soap cross. If the holes are located along the lines, then the principle of sewing will be the same.

Similarly to a button with two holes, we make three punctures each, in the directions we need, and we draw a needle between the fabric and the button on the front side. This can be done both from below and from above.

Buttons with four holes are not very convenient in the sense that the area where they are sewn to the fabric is larger than the slot in the buttonhole into which they are inserted. Therefore, very often they stretch the loop. In order to prevent this from happening, it is better to pull off the threads a little. To do this, under the button, it is necessary to make two (three) windings of the warp threads. After that, tie a knot on the threads.

Cut the thread and finish the job. The button is sewn, with back side it turned out to be a neat cross.

How to sew a button on a leg

V in this case the knot also remains on the front side, but can be located on the button sewing line.

After several punctures, the thread is brought out to the front side and secured with a knot under the button head. The knot is attached to threads, not to the fabric.

No nodules are visible under the hat, but everything is clean and smooth on the back.

How to sew a button to a coat

On such products as coats (fur coats, sheepskin coats), and on those with rather thick collars, buttons are sewn in a special way. In one place, not one, but two buttons are used. From the front side and from the back side. This is for durability.

A knot is tied and the fabric is pierced as in the case of a button with two holes. The thread is passed through one of the holes in the upper button, and a match is placed under it. This is done in order to create a distance between the surface of the material and the button.

Then at the same time it is necessary to sew the upper and lower buttons through the same punctures. After several punctures, the thread is brought out to the front side, the match is removed, and all the threads are pulled by several turns of the main thread. A false leg is created on which the button will be held. You need to tie a few knots and secure the thread. The height of the leg depends on the thickness of the selection of the product.

Here's what happened as a result. Buttons are sewn on both sides.

As you can see, there is really nothing complicated, and everything is done in an elementary way. Now you know how to sew on buttons by hand. If you have never tried to do this, then now you will definitely succeed.

BUTTON-STITCHING TIPS

1. If you use a double thread (when sewing on buttons with holes), make sure that the thread is not twisted. Otherwise, the threads may not lay down very evenly, which will ruin appearance buttons.

2. For thin fabrics, it is better to use thin threads, for denser fabrics, thicker.

3. When using twofold thread, there should not be many punctures. Two or three is enough. If there is a single thread, then there should be more punctures, which may not be very good on the material.

4. Make sure that the direction of the threads when sewing on the buttons is parallel to the buttonhole, not perpendicular to it.

Knowing these little tricks, you can sew on any button without any problems. And, if you want to make an unusual detail out of it on your product, then I suggest you take a look at the article "How to sew buttons in an original way". There you will see how creative these ordinary objects can be. With your own hands, you can make from a button not just a decoration, but a talisman that will fulfill your desires.

I hope that in the matter of sewing on buttons by hand, everything became clear to you, and now you can easily cope with it yourself.

Respectfully yours, Irina Shirokova.

• If you are replacing a four-hole button, see how the other buttons are sewn on. Sew in the same way (diagonally or parallel) as for other buttons.
• The button should be sewn just as neatly on the seamy side as on the outside, so watch the seamy side to see if you are creating a thread nest there. Pass the needle and thread in approximately the same places.
• Make sure to use at least 12 centimeters of thread.
• Some people prefer to fasten the thread to the fabric with a few stitches before starting to sew on the button.
• Ordinary thread will do, but there are special threads for buttons. It is thicker and stronger than ordinary thread. If the buttons you are about to sew need to be very well secured, such as on a coat, use special thread for the buttons.
• Another way to tie a knot at the end of the thread is to make a tiny stitch on the wrong side, pull it almost all the way down, and then pull the needle and thread through the loop before pulling it tight. If you do this twice in the same place, then you get a double knot. Then you can cut the thread closer to the knot.
• Sew with double thread when you want to reduce the number of stitches for securing the button.
• You can thread two threads through the needle and make both of them double, thus using four threads to really speed up the sewing process.
• It would also be good to choose the same threads that are used to sew the rest of the buttons. There are many buttons in fabric stores, and if they do not have the right one, then you will definitely find a very similar one. If it doesn't fit, you can replace the entire row of buttons - this will make your clothes look much better.
• Button thread is usually easier to use if you lubricate it with beeswax after you thread it through the needle. You can even use two double strands for the buttons, which works well for buttons on a coat.
• For a piece of clothing you often wear, try wrapping the end of the thread on the needle around the threads holding the button at least 4-5 times and then threading the needle through this tight bundle of threads. Try to thread the needle parallel to the holes in the button to avoid resistance. Use a thimble to push the needle through. (The reason for this is simple: worn threads will cause the button to fall out faster unless you wrap the exposed threads in another bundle.) After pushing the needle through, thread it back through the fabric and tie a knot. If you wrap the threads, the button will be better secured, and the thread that holds it in place will last much longer.

Hello again!

In previous articles, we got acquainted with the rules of correct sewing to finished product, by hand and on a sewing machine, flat buttons with through holes.

But fearlessly, therefore, you can only sew on linen (on bed linen) and decorative (only for beauty) buttons, as well as buttons on children's clothing and "adult", sewn from light fabrics.

For clothes made from already denser fabrics, for flat buttons with holes (2 - 3 - 4) for a puncture, you need to make a thread leg or, if you like, a thread column. Why is this needed?

Firstly. The fact is that in button fasteners, the width of the cut L1 of the welt loop (the distance between the long longitudinal sides of the loop)

quite small. It can be 1 - 2, maximum 3 mm, for eyelet loops on thick coats. And the width of the stitches L2, with which the button is attached to the product, is much wider than L2> L1.

And yet, more buttons for products made of dense fabrics are chosen, which means that the distances between the holes can be much wider.

Secondly. Have outerwear(jackets, coats, raincoats, jackets, etc.) the edges of the two sides of the fastener are much thicker than those of lightweight fabrics.

So, in order to avoid deformation (turning out the edges) of the loops and, as a result, the stress of the material in the fastener area, the distortion of the fastener line, and in order not to get an unpresentable appearance of the product, on such products, buttons with two or four holes should be sewn on a "leg ".

The height of such a leg depends on the thickness of the product at the place of the slotted loop. And it can be from 2 to 6 mm.

How to make such a thread leg?

1. A flat button with through holes for punctures, made on a thread leg, the beginning of its attachment to the finished product, exactly the same as for those made without a leg. We do everything in the same way, exactly until the moment when the first stitch was made through the holes of the button and the button was set in place.

So, the button fell into place.

2. Now you need to shape the thread leg.

To do this, you need to raise the button to the desired distance up above the material. This can be done using a variety of tools, gadgets and the most common household items. For example, using an ordinary pin.

These pins, which are called English pins, come in different sizes. So, substituting them different under the button, you can get thread legs of different sizes.

To set the length of the "legs", you can use a special tool - a template.

It has two slots with which you can set the leg length to 2 mm

You can use matches, toothpicks and any other suitable items to raise the button to the desired height.

In the army, they say, they make a leg for a button with a comb, an ordinary pocket comb.

After the button is raised to the desired height above the material, we make several stitches, in two threads, between the two holes, passing the needle and thread alternately through the holes of the button on the front and back side.

For buttons with two holes you need to make 5 - 6 stitches, and for buttons with four holes you need to make 3 - 4 for each pair of holes.

Now, the objects substituted for the "leg" must be removed, and the column formed from the threads must be formed into a leg. To do this, wrap the thread around the thread with a button several times (2 - 4).

3. The sewing of the button ends by twisting the thread leg with a couple of buttonhole stitches.

Then, with a couple of stitches, seam back the needle into the thread leg

the end of the thread is fixed, which is threaded with a needle into the formed loops.

Please, the button on the leg is ready for work!

Oh, she’ll have to get into the loop!

How to sew a button on a foot on a sewing machine?

You can sew a button with holes for punctures on the leg, you can also sew it on a sewing machine. Everything is done in the same way as with, only so that later on from the thread it was possible to form a thread leg, an object of the required thickness is placed on the button. For example, a match, or a toothpick.

Button with 2 holes.

Button with 4 through holes.

After pulling out from under the needle sewing machine the edges of the product, the ends of the machine stitches must be twisted around the columns of thread laid between the button and the material, and fastened (as, see the previous section of the article).

How to sew on an eyelet button?

Sometimes a button with an eyelet is called a leg button. And so that there is no confusion, let's take a closer look at the buttons with the eyelet.

Buttons with an eyelet are produced in different shapes. They can be - spherical, flat, in the form of a hemisphere.

On the lower part of the button there is one single protrusion-eyelet, with a single hole.

Buttons with an eyelet are of two types: with a pronounced eyelet - a loop and a semi-hidden eyelet.

Buttons with an eyelet are sewn to the product in the same way as, only Buttons with an eyelet are sewn with threads in the color of the material.

A button, with any kind of eyelet, is sewn with several stitches through the fabric and through the eyelet of the button. The tip of the ear should exactly coincide with the marking point.

How to sew on a button with a button?

One problem can arise when using the fastener on outerwear. Since outerwear is sewn, as a rule, from dense, thick, heavy fabrics, the edges of the fasteners on such products are thick and very thick, and the load on the button sewing area is very strong. And so that it does not happen that the button is torn out with the "meat", a small flat button is sewn to the main button on the front side of the product from the inside out. Sew them on synchronously.

Sewing a button with a button to the product, like any other, begins marking the future location of the button.

Then, a thread with a knot tied at the end, the needle is threaded into the material, exactly in the place reserved for sewing on the button, but only from the wrong side.

The first, ceremonially - front button is "strung" onto the needle.

Next stitch into the other hole of the top button. Here you can select the type of hole-to-hole stitching.

Now, if you continue to sew again and again, the stitches between the holes of the two buttons, and no more additional, "left" movements are made, then the main button with a button will, of course, be attached to the product. But how do you use such a clasp? Indeed, between the buttons, in this case, only one edge of the fastener will fit.

But what about the other edge? So, in order for the other edge of the fastener to fit between the buttons, a thread leg should be formed between the main button and the product.

How this is done is described in great detail above in the article.

The button rises to the desired height above the material and is sewn like this, along with the button.

Then the auxiliary object is removed, and a thread leg is formed under the main button.

Here is a button on a thread leg with a button and sewn on!

How to sew a button on very thin fabrics?

It will be very difficult for any button to hold onto very thin fabrics, and even with a loose, “liquid” weave of the fabric threads. Therefore, a spacer should be used to sew buttons on products made from such fabrics.

It can be made from a piece of braid or a small piece of the main fabric folded several times. And sew from the wrong side at the same time as the button sewn from the face of the product.

Compliance with the simple, but very important rules described in the article will help you learn how to properly sew buttons on the leg, have an excellent result and at the same time enjoy the work done by yourself.

Do you know what a slot button is? How to sew it on? Not? You can read about this button.

Well, what secret can be hidden in such an elementary task as sewing on buttons? But if you look, are there many modern people left with clothes that are not fastened with a zipper, Velcro or buttons, but with the help of a button, though traditional and tested over the centuries, but not always convenient? A couple of decades ago, almost every inhabitant of the planet knew, With 4 holes, two or on a leg, small and large, flat and voluminous - it took a few minutes to complete such a task, and the result was always satisfactory.

Mastery should be in everything

Yes, indeed, to attach a small button in its proper place, it is worth working hard. Someone may say that there is nothing difficult in this, but without proper skill and preparation, an attempt to return a lost or torn-off fugitive to its place may end in vain.

It is important to attach the button symmetrically in relation to the loop, it is necessary to correctly calculate the tension of the thread and make the "leg" so that the fastener does not sag excessively, but does not sit too closely to the fabric. Aesthetic components, such as neatness, the choice of a thread that is suitable in color and thickness, and even how to sew on buttons are also important. As you can see, any business, even such an elementary one as sewing on a button, must be approached responsibly and seriously.

Frightening amulet

In our century modern technologies and the mass market, the button has ceased to be something special, people rarely order clothes from tailors, and therefore the choice of a fastener is rather a task for designers at sewing factories. And in these organizations, purchasing managers are guided by the benefits and functionality of the button, but not by its beauty and style. But a few centuries ago, she had much greater importance for a person, it was a talisman, an amulet, an indicator of his wealth and taste.

The more prosperous a person was, the more luxurious buttons he could afford. Nowadays, the majority of such products are made of cheap plastic, although samples of metal, bone, wood and glass are available in stores, and before buttons were real works of art. They were inlaid precious stones, covered with gilding and silvering, engravers applied ornate patterns, images of family coats of arms and symbolic signs on tiny fasteners. Moreover, people knew how to sew a button for good luck, prosperity, love.

The use of a fastener for clothes as an amulet has a completely logical explanation. Once small bells were attached to things, they had to wake up their owner if someone touched him in a dream. Such "signaling" helped to avoid theft, and could even save from death, but over time the bells were replaced by ordinary buttons, although they can still fulfill their deep roots of the amulet.

Aesthetics or something more?

The secret of the fact consists of several components. People who truly believe in higher power and the superpowers of the objects around a person convince that in order to acquire a special energy for such a simple thing, you need to perform several fairly simple actions.

First of all, it is important to sincerely believe in what you are doing - that is, if you are skeptical about creating an amulet, then there will definitely not be a result from this. Secondly, the work must be done independently. Sewing on a button for good luck, or for any other purpose, you need to mentally say what you want. It is not necessary to give the conspiracy some special word form, it should be capacious and substantial and contain variations of the phrase: "I sew on myself with a button, but I sew off bad luck."

It is very important to follow a specific sequence in the sewing of the stitches. It is for this reason that it is believed that for a positive result you need to use a four-hole fastener, but how to sew on a button with 4 holes to achieve this goal?

Such different luck ...

For each person, the concept of luck and luck lies in different things, so there is no one universal way of attaching buttons to clothes. The result will be different in each specific case of stitching. So, two horizontal parallel stripes in the center of the accessory will help to find friends, gain authority in the team, and the vertical ones will contribute to the development of intuition.

If you are interested in the question of how to sew on a button with 4 holes and thereby enhance its attractiveness or improve health, then the answer is simple - you need to lay a thread in the form of a cross. The stitches that fix the button on the fabric and have the shape of the Latin letter Z in its correct or mirror position guarantee the acquisition of financial wealth and an improvement in business reputation.

There are several more important points in turning a button into a real amulet. After all, if everything were so simple, then the most ordinary jacket with buttons would give any person a cloudless sky, wealth and love to the grave. Keep in mind the following:

• work should be done on days when the moon is rising;
• it is better to buy a new button;
• choosing the sample that is made from natural material and I liked it, and you need to attach the amulet not to the first thing that comes across, but to your beloved and often worn.

You can sew on a button from the inside out, best of all on the left side - closer to the heart.

Simple fix

So, if everything became clear with the issues of high matters, then you should understand the practical side of the problem, namely, how to sew a button correctly, do it carefully and, most importantly, reliably.

First of all, you need to prepare a place for future repairs. Ideally, a defect on the clothes is noticed at the moment when the fastener just strives to leave its "home" place. In this case, the button must be carefully cut without damaging the fabric, remove the remaining threads and return to its proper place.

The classic and most reliable sewing method is when the stitches form a cross on the right side. To make the work beautiful from the inside out, the stitches should not be done randomly, but following a simple algorithm:

1. Secure the thread at the sewing site by making several overlapping stitches.
2. Sew on the button, while the first puncture must be made from the seamy side, with the needle in the upper left hole, and the seam must be completed from the opposite side - in the lower hole on the right.
3. To make a cross stitch, you need to mirror the previous steps - bring the needle and thread from the seamy side to the front one, only this time to the top right, and direct it to the lower left hole.
4. When sewing on a button, do not forget to make a "leg" for it, loosening the thread a little. A match or paper tube inserted between the fabric and the fastener will help to avoid excessive tension.
5. The stitches should be repeated several times (5-10), then fasten the thread by wrapping it around the loops on the front side of the product under the button (after removing the match) and making a control stitch through the resulting "leg".

Beauty in the little things

All other ways of how to sew on a button with 4 holes differ only in that the sequence of stitches changes, the very principle and course of action remains unchanged.

When doing this kind of work, you should pay attention to all the stages of sewing. When the button has come off, as they say, “with meat,” and a piece of fabric is missing in its place, the product should be repaired and reinforced first. A very small hole can be patched up, a larger hole is better to cover from the inside with a patch. Also, you cannot do without a patch in leather clothes (jackets, raincoats, sheepskin coats) or fur.

Naturally, before starting the repair, you need to arm yourself with tools and materials at hand, based on what needs to be repaired. For working with delicate and fine silk, it is better to use a thin needle with a narrow eye; accordingly, the thread should be no thicker than # 40.

Less delicate jacket buttoned knitwear also needs a special approach. But here the difficulties will most likely be with the choice of thread. It is advisable to use the one from which the product is connected: both in color and in structure. If there is no suitable piece, then you can pick up a similar one from an assortment of threads for embroidery or crocheting. Also, the stores sell special plastic needles with a round tip, which helps to avoid "injury" to the knitwear.

Which is easier?

Many on a whim may decide that it is easier to work with outerwear than with underwear. Say, the fabric is denser, you took the thread stronger and you sew. But the difficulty of wearing a coat or a raincoat lies not so much in the mechanism of work or the selection of thread and needle, but in doing it right.

It is for outerwear that the presence of a "leg" is a fundamentally important point. Its absence is a guarantee that the button will come off faster, the absence of even a small (1-2 mm) gap equal to the thickness of the floor will create discomfort during fastening and unbuttoning of clothes, just like a wrong buttonhole. A button that does not fit into the prepared buttonhole, and even too close to the fabric, will not stay on the finished product for a long time.

For large overcoat buttons, it is best to use strong polyester thread (# 20). It should also be borne in mind that no matter what type of clothing you have to work with, it is best to fold a piece of thread in half. In this case, the piece should not be very short or too long - the optimal length is 50 cm. If you take a smaller piece, there is a risk that the cut will not be enough, and the larger piece will get tangled and curl up into knots.

Two in one

Another trick that is most relevant for outerwear is the use of a second button. It is sewn from the wrong side of the product, and forms a kind of "sandwich" of the top and bottom buttons and material. For this purpose, special button buttons have been created, sometimes they are also called "counter buttons", but the simplest flat round fasteners will also work.

Their use pursues two goals at once - more reliable fixation, as well as avoiding deformation of the fabric at the place of sewing on the button, due to the fact that the material does not crumple, does not wrinkle, knots and threads are hidden from the seamy side of the product.

Technology to help you

Buttons can be sewn not only in the traditional way - by hand. Owners of sewing machines can use their technique in this business. Almost all modern sewing machines, even those intended for domestic needs, and not industrial ones, have a set of feet as standard, among which there is a foot for sewing on buttons. A special plate is also matched to it, which helps to set up the machine to create loops on the product.

The work of sewing on the buttons by means of a typewriter must be done by selecting the "zigzag" stitch, at low speed. It is important to select the correct stitch width, equal to the distance between the holes in the button, to avoid chipping the eye of the needle. For such work, a regular needle is suitable, unless the fabric requires otherwise. The same goes for threads.

Greetings to all sewing lovers! Let's talk about such details of our clothes as buttons. They are present in almost all of our things and from time to time they come off, are lost, and they need to be restored. ? Surely, many of you have encountered this problem. Not everyone likes this activity, but sometimes it is simply necessary to do it.

How to sew a button on a leg

In this case, the knot also remains on the front side, but can be located on the button sewing line.

After several punctures, the thread is brought out to the front side and secured with a knot under the button head. The knot is attached to threads, not to the fabric.

No nodules are visible under the hat, but everything is clean and smooth on the back.
