Zipper sewing

This section provides 2 options of zipper sewing, one
for lapped zipper and the other for concealed zipper.

Lapped zipper sewing

Press the lapped zipper icon and the zipper sewing
window will open.
(A) To sew the left side of the zipper, attach zipper
foot E with the pin on the right-hand side.
(B) To sew the right side of the zipper, attach zipper

Fabric preparation
Add 1 cm (3/8˝) to the zipper size.
This is the overall opening size.
Place the right sides of the fabric together and sew to
the end of the opening with a 2 cm (13/16˝) seam
allowance.
Reverse stitch to lock the seam.
Manually increase the stitch length to 5.0 and baste the
zipper opening with the thread tension loosened.
To sew
1. Fold back the left seam allowance. Turn the right
seam allowance under to form a 0.2 to 0.3 cm (1/8˝)
fold. Place the zipper teeth next to the fold and pin
in place.
Set the stitch length and thread tension back to the
default.
