    Thanks so much for this content. Neophyte seamstress here 🙋🏾‍♀️. Getting ready to put in the zipper and of course I ran to CZcams 😂. I had to watch a couple of times to understand the basting stitch step, patience with comprehension so important for a beginner. Thanks to you, I believe I’ve got this 😊

      @@SewAnastasia so it turns out, it wasn’t that easy, for me. My sewing machine is 22 years old and the presser foot doesn’t raise up very much so it was difficult to pull the zipper closed and once done my sewing line was off. Should I keep trying or throw in the towel and buy a new machine? LOL

  • @danlehman1895
    @danlehman1895 Před rokem +2

    Great technique, though I'm wondering if this exact approach only works for zippers with small pulls? I was creating a bag with a heavier zipper, which made it impossible to fold sideways to allow the presser foot to pass by. Since the outside is basted shut, I had to rip the seam open while the piece was still on the machine in order to pull the zipper through and past the needle. Is there a better way to use this same method with bigger zippers?

    • @SewAnastasia
      @SewAnastasia  Před rokem +1

      You can leave your zipper fully zipped up when you do this. Just be sure that it is center to the seam.

    If you are putting the zipper in a dress, do you still put the zipper tape all the way up to the top of the dress back. I'm guessing that you would have to add a hook and eye at the top. But what if you don't want to add a hook and eye???????

    • @SewAnastasia
      @SewAnastasia  Před 5 měsíci

      The zipper tape goes to the top of the dress so you have something to sew over for finishing it. A facing, bias tape, bias facing, lining etc. You do not have to put a hook n eye. Check out this video where I finish the zipper with the lining. I think it will help you . czcams.com/video/wbXGlbMEAb4/video.html
