Basic sewing techniques
Sewing zippers
The Zipper Foot E can be snapped on either the right or the left
of the needle, making it easy to sew both sides of the zipper. To
sew the other side of the zipper, reposition the Zipper Foot.
Move the needle position far left or far right to stitch close to the
zipper teeth or cording.
Center Zipper
1. Sew the two fabrics right sides together along the 5/8’’
(15 mm) seam line, stopping at the notch for the zipper
placement.
2. Baste the remaining seam where the zipper will be placed.
Press the seam open. Place the zipper right side to the pressed
open seam allowance, placing the zipper stop at the notch. Pin
the zipper on the right side so it stays in place.
3. Select straight stitch and move the needle position to the left.
Snap on the Zipper Foot E so the needle is on the left side
of the foot. Place fabric under the foot right side up with the
zipper foot on the right side of the zipper.
4. Begin stitching across the bottom, turn the fabric and stitch
the right side of the zipper to the top.
5. To avoid fabric shifting, sew the left side of the zipper in the
same direction. Snap on the Zipper Foot E so the needle is
on the right side of the foot. Move the needle position to the
right.
6. Begin stitching across the bottom, turn the fabric and stitch
the left side of the zipper sewing from the bottom to the top.
7. Remove the basting stitches.
NOTE:
To adjust the position of the stitching line, adjust the
needle position with the stitch width buttons.
