How do you get a smooth, invisible zip finish without puckers, misalignment or bulky seams? If you are looking for perfectly matched seams either side of your zip, this quick zip tip shows you a simple method that helps everything line up more accurately at seam junctions and gives a much cleaner result when inserting an invisible zip.
STEP 1
Sew one side of your invisible zip as usual. Close the zip and mark the seam position on the zip tape with chalk.
STEP 2
Now when you place the other side of the zip use the chalk mark to align for perfect seam matching.
TA DAH – zip perfection!
