    • Use either a sewing machine or needle and thread for this step.

    • A bar tack is several long, narrowly spaced stitches that form the top of a T between shorter perpendicular stitches.

    • Check to make sure your button fits your adjusted buttonhole well.

    • Starting on the right of the existing buttonhole, stitch to your chalk mark or pin, matching the width of the original stitching.

    • Stitch a new bar tack.

    • A bar tack is several long, narrowly spaced stitches that form the top of a T between shorter perpendicular stitches.

    • Stitch back on your left to just past the original bar tack.

    • Tie off or backstitch your thread.

    • If using the existing button, you may have to cut it off and move it slightly to be centered in the larger buttonhole and resew it on.

    • Very near the place where your button was originally sewn on, center your button in your adjusted buttonhole. Using chalk or a pin, mark this location.

    • Sew your button on.

    • Check to make sure it fits through your adjusted buttonhole well.

終わりに

A sewing machine with a buttonhole presser foot is ideal, but this project can be completed with needle and thread.
