Default Sewing a button......

Just came across this when I was making some crafty things that needed buttons sewed on...on my "old" Viking I merely pushed the little button on the side that was printed BUTTON, lowered feed dogs and it sews buttons.....I was doing this on my BL ellure plus---no such easy way...went to manual...read had to put on buttonhole attachment, yadah, yadah....so went to Viking to do the job! Later emailed company, recd a lengthy return stating look in manual under buttonhole, blah, blah.........really?

I have a Project class I'm going to on Tuesday, so I will have machine and I'm going to ask

The stranger part of this is I was watching an old episode of love of quilting (2000 series) and someone sewed on a button with a BL using an attachment M...looked that up online. 8.99, but not sure it will work on this ellure plus.

How do you do buttons by machine? Curious...
