Buttons for Sewing

If you are needle and thread challenged, you may not know how to sew on a button. Have no fear! This simple task is easy as pie.

You'll need:

- sewing needle
- thread
- sewing button
- thimble, optional
- scissors
- that shirt or blouse that's missing a button
- glasses, if needed

1. First remove any thread from the shirt or pants or whatever it is that needs a button sewn on.

2. Thread the needle. This can be tricky if you've never done it. Trim the thread and pull out a goodly amount, about 2 feet so you have plenty of thread to work with. Hold the needle between your thumb and pointer finger. Gently push the needle onto the thread so the thread lines up with the hole in the needle. It seems to work better to push the needle onto the thread rather than the other way around. But do what works for you. If the thread starts to come apart, trim the thread again. And don't forget to lick that thread as needed.

3. Okay, once your needle is threaded, pull both ends of the thread so they meet at the ends. Tie a knot by bending the doubled thread over itself and pushing it thorough to knot it. Double knot if the knot seems very small.

4. Now you're ready to sew on a button. Get the button, using either the button that fell off or match one from your stash, if possible.

5. To sew on a 2 or 4-hole button, start at the back of the piece of clothing. Line up the button on the front with where the button goes. Push your needle from the back through the fabric and through one of the holes on the button. If your needle hits the button, simply move the needle so it goes through one of the buttonholes.

6. Pull the needle up to the front of the clothing so it is on the front side of the clothing where the button is. Take the needle and push it through a different button hole moving the needle to the back of the fabric. Pull the needle through and continue moving the needle from back to front, front to back, at least three times until you feel the button is securely sewn on. Note: Use a thimble if desired. Use the thimble on your index finger to push the needle through the fabric. A thimble is great if the fabric is heavy, like denim.

7. Tie a knot. Use the needle to tie a knot. Make sure your needle is at the back of the fabric or piece of clothing (on the opposite side as the button). Push the needle through the fabric without going through to the front of the blouse or shirt or pants. Leave a small loop of thread and push your needle through the loop. Repeat this a couple of times and your thread is knotted. Trim the thread close (but not too close). You're done!

8. To sew on a shank button, the process is very similar to sewing on a button with buttonholes. Start at the back of the fabric (on the opposite side as the button). Push the needle through to the front making sure to line up the shank (hole) of the button with the correct spot. Move the needle through the shank/hole and push the needle through the fabric to the back of the piece of clothing. Repeat this process three or four times or more until you feel like the button is secure. Use the same technique to knot the thread.
