Upskill your zip techniques with a masterclass in zipper techniques.

Over the course of the class you’ll learn all the tips and tricks needed to create perfectly set zippers, essential for sewing jeans, trousers, shorts, dresses, skirts, and bags.
We’ll go through each zip step by step twice, once facing from the left, and once from the right, to give you experience in all options.
You’ll leave with four samples, and fully illustrated instructions for all four installations, as well as tons of tips for getting the best results.
Sewing Level: Suitable for intermediate students and upwards. Students should be familiar with a sewing machine, and have some experience sewing zips.
