Zipper Sewing - Kenmore 18221 - Drop-In Bobbin Sewing Machine Owner's Manual

Zipper Sewing (Continued)
[]Raise and release foot, and re-attach it on left-hand side
of pin.
Take the upper fabric layer and lay it flat over the zipper.
Starting just below zipper bottom stop, sew across fabric
to about 3/8" to 1/2" distance from the basting stitch line.
Turn fabric 90 ° and sew a seam the entire length of
zipper tape. Before reaching pull-tab, stop the machine
with needle in fabric and raise the foot. Use seam ripper
to open a few inches of basting stitch, then unzip a few
inches to clear a path for the stitch. At end of seam, sew
in reverse a few stitches to lock.
Once both sides of zipper are sewn, use seam ripper to
open the basting stitch.
