Thank you for going slowly and thoroughly….I always have a hard time with zippers

[tanyadavid]

❤ love this. Thank you so much. I'm new to your channel and already learning alot.

[ChristineLusk]

Thank you so much for your great videos, I have watched three so far today and have subscribed. You explanations and steps are easy to follow and I appreciate you breaking down the skills in ways that I can understand. I am terrified of zippers and have never made anything with a zipper but now have more confidence and will practice using your steps so that I can make something with a zipper in the near future. You are a nature teacher as I have been trying to learn how to sew for many years now and have not made much headway so far. I have learned a lot so far from your videos. Thanks!

Zippers by the yard is something I've not tried. I think it's adding the pull that intimidates me. Thank you for your videos

Zippers are so hard for me. This video makes it seem so simple. I'm going to make another attempt this week. I want to convert a hoodie sweatshirt into a zippered sweatshirt, but have not done well with my practice attempts on scrap fabrics.

Thank you so much Jan, I really really enjoyed watching you putting in these zippers. And what a great idea of using two different coloured zips, and I really really Love ❤️ this. Can I please ask, is that double sided tape just ordinary tape or does it have to be special tape for fabric? Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤

[Joy-eqqg]

Thanks for a great zipper demo. Would you consider installing an invisible zipper in your next how to video? That's what I have issue with😮

[peeshyholland]

So glad to see you back. I always learn so much from you. I love the tricks for basic sewing. There’s no one in my town that really teaches sewing. Yes, there are classes but it’s mostly bring a project and sew with others.
