This has helped me so much with my college project, I love the way you explain everything so clearly. Thank you! You are a great teacher! Also, your nails look beautiful.
Thank you, made it so easy to understand. I'm 63 never put in a invisible zipper before and am teaching two young girls to sew and trying to understand the directions for the zipper was not working for me, so now I feel ready to teach the girls after watching you!
Why is there not a "love" button for RUclips? This video solves ALL the zipper problems I'm having right now! I'm basically self-taught and default to using the machine for all of my stitches. It's so easy to forget that hand stitching is often the much better choice!
You are amazing! A wonderful, clear, knowledgeable teacher. Thank you so much for sharing. You have made it possible for me to sew again, and with no intimidation. Everything is very clear.😊
I USE YOUR VIDEOS IN MY WORKROOM. THE LADIES ARE ENCOURAGED TO VISIT YOUR VIDEO LESSONS AT ANY TIME AS THEY FEEL THE NEED. WE LOVE YOUR TEACHING METHOD.
Before sewing, seal polyester zipper end tabs (no cotton) by cutting them off w/hot scissors or soldering iron to prevent raveling as well as eliminating the hassle of folding it to sew into the garment creating more bulk. To prevent melting plastic zipper stops &/or teeth, use a thin spacer like a metal ruler or knife blade between teeth & line of cutting ...
Thank you so very much for posting this video. I have sewn for over 20 years and today was the first time I installed an invisible zipper. If I didn't have your video I would have never got my project finished. Keep up the great work, you are awesome!
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I have been sewing for 15 years and dreaded to attempt the invisible zipper. However, after watching your video tutorial I felt quietly confident in having a go and...I did it! Finally, I can sew my daughter a dress to wear at her upcoming party. Thank you once again for such an indepth tutorial. Many regards from England.
all your videos are great. but this one is one of the best I have seen. you gave so much valuable information, I know it is long but it was so precise there is no way I can mess this up. keep them coming, this video gets 2 thumbs up.
Aaah! This is the first time I've seen anyone else have those weird interchangeable plastic sewing feet! And now I actually know what all those parts are for. (I've kinda inhereted my mom's sewing stuff since she doesn't use them anymore)
Thank you so much for this tutorial - I"m discovering all of your tutorials now for the first time (I'm an amateur at sewing =) self-taught!) and this has helped so much. Zippers were always tricky for me and this explained invisible zippers so well - thanks again!
This was so very very educational and easy to understand. I have avoided this for so long because there were too many questions. I feel like this is something I could tackle in the near future! Thanks so much, Crystal C.
Now i know i have the idea on how to sew an invisible zipper. I never tried it because i think it would going be untidy. Your tutorials make it seem easy. thanks so much
Great video! Very informative. I would never have been able to sew my invisible zipper into my dress using only the instructions that came with my pattern. Thank-you! :)

JHONATTANFF The 1/4 inch seam allowance is for regular zipper installation. The stitching line is super close to the zipper teeth in an invisible zipper installation.
I am glad you covered how to do a lining except my dress is a true vintage from 1950s it had a beautiful satin waist and ribbon in front so I am taking it in the back where the zipper is and cutting it up the back. IT has a fold over one side of the zipper that is tailored so well. so... I think this is the best idea. Wish me luck.
I like your sewing machine, in that it has a nice speed that is not so fast. What model is it? I enjoy your videos-the are very clear. You are a great teacher and you are able to anticipate where a person may have difficulty and therefore making it very clear to avoid confusion..
+Kittyququmber In this video, I'm using the husqvarna lily 530. I don't think they make this model anymore but sometimes I see them pop up on ebay. I've had it for almost 20 years and husqvarna makes really good sewing machines
Excellent Video Tutorial! Thanks! Have you ever done a sleeveless dress with lining by sewing shoulders of both lining and dress, then armholes, then somehow pulling lining through shoulders? I used to do that years ago and have forgotten how. It was so easy, the only two extra things to do were to sew in the zipper and hem. Thanks!
@@PeaceandLove3236 My Dressmaking & Design program says to put the zipper in at the earliest possible stage while the garment is still flat. Through trial and error, I learned that does not mean before the lining and self pieces are sewn right sides together at the neck and armhole. There should be 7 pieces- 2 back pcs for the self and for the lining or facing/lining unit, one front piece for the self and for the lining, then the inv. zipper is the 7th. Sew the self RS TOG at the shoulder. Then do the same for the lining. If the self and lining pieces are sewn RS TOG at the neckline and armhole [neckline sewn in a continuous seam from center back (CB) to CB, and each armhole sewn side (S) to side] WITHOUT connecting the sides, each back lining pc can be carefully pulled through its corresponding shoulder, flipping the lining or facing/lining unit so that the wrong side WS of the lining faces the WS of the self fabric. At this point, the curves of the neck and armhole seam allowances S.A. need to be clipped and understitched as far as possible. Press. Then the zipper needs to be attached to the self CB (assuming the CB has already been interfaced). Then hand sew in any hooks and eyes at the top of the zipper tape and hand sew the lining to the zipper tape neatly and out of the way of the teeth. Test by opening and closing the zipper. Next, sew the front side seam to the back side seam in a continuous seam. (Each seam will have one part self one part lining. It'll look funny, but it's correct.) Do the same for the other side, pressing seams open throughout. The only thing left should be to hem. Finished hem of lining should be 1/2" to 1" shorter than the finished hem of the self fabric. This works best for light- to medium-weight fabric, especially cotton and cotton blends, broadcloth. Keep in mind that the thicker and stiffer the fabric, the more unsuitable the technique of pulling the lining through the shoulders. If you have further questions, please ask. I'm happy to share what I have learned.
I was wondering, if you use the reference lining for your zipper (the red/orange one) don't you skip a part of your seam allowance? or... besides that, perfect tutorial! gonna try it now haha ^^
Great video! I have one question though: So if you added the lining at the end after sewing the invisible zipper to your garment, what was the white fabric on the inside? Do you add another lining into the dress? That is the only thing that I'm trying to understand. Other than that, thank you SO much for this tutorial!
Oh ok I see, that makes sense. So if I understand you correctly, you DO add the lining to the garment after you sew the invisible zipper to the dress. Thank you again!
I absolutely love all of your videos. I come back to them constantly because you go through everything slowly and it's easy to learn I am subscribed but I never get notices of your new videos are you still hosting?
yup, you can see our library of videos here: ruclips.net/user/ProfessorPincushionvideos Also, if you register on our site, you'll automatically get added to our newsletter list and will get a newsletter every tuesday with the new tutorial.

Great video but need tutorial on how to attach the lining to dress after installing the invisible zipper and sewing the lining to the zip...pleez thanks
I know the video is a little old but I have two questions 1. I observed you didn't back stitch when you started from the teeth part of the zipper ?am I supposed to back stitch? 2. What is I want to use the machine to sew the lining to the centre back and not hand sewn ?
Thank u for a very clear instruction 😍😍😍👏👏 is there any way except hand stitching to attach lining in a zipper? Because i have numb fingers and it will take a long time to do hand stitching. And and do you also have other tutorial to attach zipper, lining and neckline area? Thank you for a great youtube channel 🙌🙌
The reason why you don't machine stitch the lining in place, is because then you'll have two rows of stitches on the right side of the garment next to the zipper and it might not look the neatest. If this doesn't bother you, then you could just machine stitch instead of hand sewing. This is the only tutorial we have that's like this. Thanks!
another great tutorial...great nails my gf loves them..you are a awesome teacher...I'm making her a skirt ,so this is a very important video for me..very best wishes,,Bill a man who sews
in this tutorial, I'm using an invisible zipper and then an invisible zipper foot attachment. the attachment is usually in the same department as the zippers
What if you still have an unfinished neck facing attached to the top of your neckline? Does this change the zipper placement of 3/4" down from the top?
Great video! However I was a little confused. Which was actually the lining, the white fabric or the spotty fabric. Also you didn't show the inside of the dress at the top to see how you finished of the zip at the neck edge. Thank you :)
So that's how dresses hide their invisible zippers in the inside :D Great tutorial! I'll be making my bridesmaid dress, and I do have a question that maybe can be answered. What zipper length is recommended for a strapless floor length dress? Any tutorials on that topic would be great, too. I'm assuming 14" or shorter because it will be starting from my mid back, but I'm not sure. That and Joann's only carries 7-8", 12-14" and 20-22". Thank you in advance :D
the zipper is really to help you get over the widest point, which for most people is the hips. You can measure someone from their mid back to their hips and that should give you a rough idea on how long the zipper will need to be.
I was wondering why you turned the dress inside out when you went to sew the second side of the zipper but then you attached the right side of the zipper to the right side of the fabric? Great video though....
It's from coats. I got it from JoAnn's and it's usually hanging up by the zipper section: www.joann.com/singer-invisible-zipper-foot-use-with-candc-art-f84/1033018.html?gclid=CP_i95CR4M4CFUGTfgodH14KdQ
Is the reason an invisible zipper foot should be used rather than a regular zipper foot because an invisible zipper foot will sew much closer to the zipper teeth than a regular zipper foot would? I'm just trying to understand why an invisible zipper foot would be necessary.
I've never used an invisible zipper foot. I've sewn since I was very little. I just use my zipper foot but opposite of a plain zipper... sews just as close with no issues.
hello thks you you teach us how to sew an invisible zeaper it is interesting and it help me a lot sometime I have to go to a tailor but now I can do it
are you talking about the basting stitch I did at the beginning in the contrasting color? I just did that at my seam line. So if yours is 1cm seam allowance then do it at 1cm. Just use the longest stitch length on your machine to make it a basting stitch
love your nails.....thnx for this tut I have seen these in stores never brought bc I didnt know how to use I hate I brought the foot for my machine now 35.00 ugh

This is the most understandable video of invisible zippers I have seen. I like your nails, they don't distract to me.
I have been sewing ever since I was 10 and have always hated zippers! Thanks to good RUclips videos like this one, they're not so bad!
No one had explained the hidden zipper as good as you... This is great.
Thank you so much for the kind words :)

Professor Pincushion did you sew next to the zipper teeth/coil? aren't you supposed to sew like 1/4 inch away? am i missing something?
JHONATTANFF the invisible zipper foot really controls the distance of the stitch, because the groove fits over the zipper teeth.

How would a sleeveless dress with a center back invisible zipper be lined at the neck and armhole? Do you have a video for that?

You are an excellent teacher! Thank you for this. Headed to the machine 😊
you can do it! :)
Very clear instructions .. Do you recommend sewing the lining into the garment than adding the zip afterwards? Thankyou
I normally do the zipper first and then sew in the lining, that way the lining can cover the zipper tape and make it look nicer
Great explanation! :) For the first time I have made the zipper really invisible!
Just an excellent tutorial. Well developed, clearly presented. Now I can go put in that invisible zipper without fear, or picking out seams :)
I need u to know that u continously save my life
Thank you, Professor--a very nicely done presentation, … and BTW, I like the pink pull showing; I think it states that the garment is handmade.

I was wondering, if you use the reference lining for your zipper (the red/orange one) don't you skip a part of your seam allowance? or...
besides that, perfect tutorial! gonna try it now haha ^^
Instead of measuring for the second side of the zipper, you could zip it back up and pin the second side down. This way it's exactly lined up.
Great video! I have one question though: So if you added the lining at the end after sewing the invisible zipper to your garment, what was the white fabric on the inside? Do you add another lining into the dress? That is the only thing that I'm trying to understand. Other than that, thank you SO much for this tutorial!
It was just for this demonstration to make it easier to see which was the wrong and right side of the garment.
Oh ok I see, that makes sense. So if I understand you correctly, you DO add the lining to the garment after you sew the invisible zipper to the dress. Thank you again!
Viktor Bethserio I usually do, so that the seam allowance next to the zipper will be enclosed and I just think it looks nicer. thanks!

thank you i wonder the same thing, but i cant find the answer
How did you sandwich the top of the lining with the main fabric without it bulking.
Thanks but this is for regular machine we can use ?

I was wondering why you turned the dress inside out when you went to sew the second side of the zipper but then you attached the right side of the zipper to the right side of the fabric? Great video though....
Wow I just learn something new again thank you for sharing.
So should I attached the lining to the bodice first then add the zipper? Sewing MCall 7835
Do you loose length in the zip due to the sewing machine only being able to sew so far down because of the zipper pull/slider getting in the way?
Thank you for the tutorial. Much appreciated.
Can you sew an invisible sipper without a centerback seam?
can you show the inside of the garment, please?
You need to see how Mimi G does it! It is a much easier process and you can use a regular zipper foot!
This was great!! Thanks! 🎀
What make and model is the invisible zipper foot and where did you purchase it from? I've never seen one like that

Great video I appreciated it a lot because it will help me..
hello thks you you teach us how to sew an invisible zeaper it is interesting and it help me a lot sometime I have to go to a tailor but now I can do it
What if your lining is attached to the dress and not just free floating fabric?
if my seam allowence is 1cm, what is the contrast stitch width would be?
are you talking about the basting stitch I did at the beginning in the contrasting color? I just did that at my seam line. So if yours is 1cm seam allowance then do it at 1cm. Just use the longest stitch length on your machine to make it a basting stitch
Thx a lot

love your nails.....thnx for this tut I have seen these in stores never brought bc I didnt know how to use I hate I brought the foot for my machine now 35.00 ugh
dorothy davis oh no. Well, if you ever buy a new machine in the future, now you know you don't have to purchase that extra foot from a machine dealer.
Great video thank you 👍👍👍
