t) Sewing a zipper
Using the zipper foot you can sew along the
right and left-hand edges of the zipper without
damaging the zipper or the needle.
The zipper foot is also useful for sewing
edges or parallel seams.
• Attach the zipper foot , as described in
Chapter 9.
• Then select the straight stitch (A) as stitch
pattern.
• Fold over approximately 2 cm of material
and lay the zipper under the material fold
such that the links just protrude. It might
be helpful to stitch in the zipper first.
• Then sew as closely as possible along the
zipper links.
- To sew the left side of the zipper, the foot
must be placed to the left of the needle.
- To sew the right side of the zipper, the foot
must be placed to the right of the needle.
