Inserting Zippers
Zippers may be inserted in several ways.
The type and location of the zipper will help you choose the right method.
A zipper is lapped when one edge of the fabric opening overlaps and conceals it, allowing only one stitching line to show.
· Machine-baste the zipper opening together on the
seamline, and press open the seam allowance.
