As with all buttonholes, the size and number of buttons must be determined before drawing. The best-known piped buttonhole is worked with a piping strip. It is drawn in on the right side of the fabric and sewn on the interlining side in consideration of the thread run and\/or pattern. Once the size and division have been determined, the buttonholes can be drawn in and transferred. For thin fabrics a piping width should be approx. 2.0 &#8211; 2.5 mm. Cut the piping strip 4.0 cm wide and about 2.0 cm longer than the finished buttonhole in the diagonal thread run. For very thin fabrics the piping can be reinforced with a light interlining, e.g. with H200 from Vlieseline.<\/p>\n<h2>Sewing Instruction Piping Buttonhole<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14463\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14463\" src=\"https:\/\/www.muellerundsohn.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Naehanleitung-Paspelknopfloch-1.jpg\" alt=\"N\u00e4hanleitung paspeliertes Knopfloch\" width=\"1181\" height=\"872\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"caption-text\">Step 1<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li>1.
