HOW TO SEW INVISIBLE ZIPPERS?
1. Using chalk or a vanishing marker, mark the length of the zipper opening on the right side of the fabric, on both sides. The zipper should be 2–3 cm longer than the opening it will be sewn into.
2. Attach the zipper foot to your sewing machine and select the straight stitch, with the needle in the center. The stitch length is 2.5–3.0 mm.
3. Open the zipper and use your thumb to flatten the teeth, leaving the area to be sewn free, which is directly adjacent to the teeth. It's not necessary to iron the zipper.
4. Place the right side of the zipper on the right side of the opening. The zipper teeth should be on the marked seam line and begin about 1.5–2 cm below the top edge of the fabric. Pin if necessary. Make sure the zipper extends
2–3 cm beyond the end of the opening.
5. Gently push the zipper teeth to the right and place the presser foot on the zipper so that the teeth are in the groove and to the right of the needle.
6. Sew the zipper from the top to the end of the marked opening and secure the seam. Close the zipper.
7. Now place the other side of the zipper on the right side of the left side of the opening (always with right sides facing).
8. Both sides with the teeth should start at the same height. Pin and reopen the zipper.
9. Gently push the zipper teeth to the left and place the presser foot on the zipper so that the teeth are in the groove and to the left of the needle.
10. Sew the zipper from top to bottom of the marked opening and secure the seam. Close the zipper.
11. Now close the seam under the zipper, from top to bottom. To do this, attach the standard presser foot of your sewing machine, so that the presser foot holder and the presser foot
are firmly attached to the right. Move the needle to the right.
12. Turn the free lower end of the zipper toward the seam allowance and sew as tightly as possible until the last stitch of the zipper seam.
13. Press the seam allowances open.
Tip: If the zipper is very long, sew the zipper teeth about 2 cm below the opening with a straight stitch or a tight zigzag stitch and cut off the protruding zipper end. Bind the end of the zipper with a small piece of fabric.
