SEW A CONCEALED ZIP
If using a concealed zipper foot, place the
teeth of the zip into the groove; as you
stitch, the foot will uncurl the teeth and
the stitching will be placed right alongside
the teeth. If you are stitching with a
normal zipper foot you will need to uncurl
the teeth with your fingertips. It is
impossible to stitch to the end of a
concealed zip, so leave roughly 3cm of
the zip base unstitched. Back stitch and
then sew the other side of the zip in place.
