I've never heard of not dropping them or covering the feed dog. Probably a good idea if you Google what a buttonholer is. Ah I see Tom has explained it. Looking it up is a good idea anyway, they're the only way to get consistent buttonholes on vintage domestic machines.

Think I just learned something from KenmoreGal2: The extra thickness helps the grip makes perfect sense, and I'll be trying this out for sure. Thanks.
