> Hi,
>
> I have a Kenmore sewing maching that has a fairly simple buttonhole
> attachment that you snap the button into and it makes the hole to fit
> the button exactly. It works ok until it gets to the end of the first
> side of the buttonhole, does a wider stitch at the end, then reverses
> to do the other side. The thread always breaks at that point. I have
> tried different tensions and nothing seems to help. The manual has
> instructions for doing the buttonholes without the attachment and I
> have the exact same problem doing it that way too. I've oiled the
> machine, cleaned the feed dogs and bobbin holder, etc. I've spent about
> 4 hours and a big chunk of fabric doing test buttonholes over and over
> and am at my wits end! Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I
> could try? Thank you.
