Depending on which side of the zip band you are sewing, the presser
foot must always be on the fabric.
For this reason, the presser foot is attached on either the left-hand or
the right-hand side, and not in the middle like all other presser feet.
−
Raise the sewing foot and needle to its highest position to switch
the sewing foot.
−
Place the zip on the fabric and place the workpiece in position
under the foot.
−
In order to sew the right-hand side of the zip, attach the zipper foot
so that the needle sews on the left-hand side.
−
Sew the right-hand side of the zip, creating the stitches as close as
possible to the teeth.
−
Sew in the zip around 0.5 centimetres below the teeth using a
bridge.
−
In order to sew the left-hand side of the zip, change the foot
position on the presser foot holder.
−
Proceed in the same way as for the right-hand side of the zip.
−
Before the foot reaches the slider on the zip band, lift the foot up
and open the zip, keeping the needle in the material.
Sewing in a drawstring
You can also use the zip presser foot to sew in drawstrings, as shown
in the illustration.
−
Fold the fabric over once to create a drawstring tunnel and then
sew along the drawstring, making sure the zip presser foot is
behind the drawstring.
