CHOOSING BUTTONHOLE STYLE AND SIZE
Each buttonholing will be different so you will
want to experiment with your garment,
considering fabric and placement of button.
Here are some basic applications:
Straight buttonholes are most popular for
everyday sewing - for series of buttons on
dress, blouse, vest, jacket or coat.
Keyhole buttonholes are a variation of the
above, with an enlarged opening at one end
to allow more room for button Shank. These
are normally used in tailored vests, jackets,
coats.
Eyelet buttonholes (another variation of
"straight") most often are used for studs on
skirts or holes for tongues of belt buckles.
