Beginner’s Guide to Sewing (Ep 12): Zippers & Buttons
Published on  Updated on  

Welcome back to the Beginner's Guide to Sewing! If zippers give you the shivers, then you've come to the right place. In Part 1, we go over the anatomy of a zipper, the different kinds, and how to insert a Standard Closed End Zipper, Invisible Zipper, and Exposed Zipper.

There is a ton of information (like always), so we broke this video into 2 parts. In part 2 (release next week), you'll learn all about buttons, snaps, grommets, and velcro.

Remember, there is more than one method for installing zippers. These are the ones that work the most for me. If you have any of your own zipper tips and tricks, leave them in the comment section below- we love to hear from you!
