has anyone made a button hole WITHOUT the button hole foot? If so, I would love for some instruction how to do it.

Thanks in advance.
I've always used a buttonhole foot so I can't help you.

If you are pressed for time, and fearful of ruining your project you might want to contact your local dry cleaner. Many of them do tailoring and repairs, so they might be able to sew a buttonhole for you for a nominal price.
