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.
