Sewing in zippers
The zipper foot E can be attached so that
it is located either to the right or to the left
of the needle, making it easy to sew both
sides of the zipper.
Lapped zipper
Baste the opening together with a
decreased upper thread tension and long
stitches. Leave approx. 2 cm (%") open at
the top. Turn the work so that the wrong
side is up. Fold the left seam allowance
outward a couple of mm from the basted
seam.
Attach the zipper foot to the left of the
needle. Use the lower needle stop position.
Place the zipper with the right side up
under the folded seam allowance and sew
the right edge of the zipper, starting at the
bottom. Open the zipper a couple of cm (
1 ")
before the seam is finished, raise the zipper
foot and pull the tab behind the foot. Lower
the foot and finish the seam.
Move the zipper foot to the right of the
needle. To sew the other edge of the zipper
on the right side of the fabric, start with
perpendicular stitching at the lower edge
and then sew from the bottom to the top.
Remove the basting.
