Sewists often get intimidated when thinking about sewing on a zipper, but the truth is that learning how to sew a zipper with a sewing machine is not at all difficult once you learn a few basic tips. Yes, you can sew a zipper by hand, but doing this with a machine is both faster and simpler. Even better, once you sew on a zipper the first time, from then on the process is even easier.
Using a sewing machine to sew on a zipper only involves a few steps; these steps consist of attaching the zipper with a basting stitch, ironing the zipper, attaching it with pins, sewing it on, and using a zipper foot to finish off the procedure. It may sound complicated, but it really isn’t.
