Great tutorial! I’m very new to sewing and I’m curious, does the thimble just help you push through without hurting your fingers? Thanks! :)

It is possible to shorten a metal teeth zipper. The process is exactly the same, just be careful to try and cut between the zipper teeth so as not to ruin your scissors.

What do you recommend for jacket with zipper because it opens up. I am not sure if you understand what I mean.

[@colleenglea]

The best kind of zippers for jackets are open ended. I hope that helps, I think that is what you are asking.
