Great video! Creepy foot never seen one move like that!! I have a pfaff 4.0 and sewed over thin zipper tape and my needle broke. What am I doing wrong?
I used this method to sew a zip into our sail cover - but I pinned the zip to the fabric to do the first seam - I think you could also use small pieces of basting tape at the match up points to ensure the zip was in the right place - though I haven't used basting tape yet on anything.
+Anne Parker You are correct! We have a new basting tape that sticks to Sunbrella and many other fabrics that is now much thinner for zipper applications. You can order it here: www.sailrite.com/Seamstick-1-4-Basting-Tape-for-Canvas-50-Yds
I wanted to see how you add a zipper to a mattress cover without the plaque procedure.I can't find a video that shows it.I do mattress covers often but usually do it like regular cushions.I would like to add it to the corner instead ...like they do on a suitcase.
Sailrite Thank you, the stitch looks so beautiful. I recently bought an old Husqvarna Viking 6440 and after some maintenance and learning I’m quite happy with it but it doesn’t have a walking foot and the LSZ-1 still remains my dream machine. :)
Thank you. All great ideas. I use small clips to hold zipper to fabric and remove as I approach the needle. 👍🏼
Use stapler to hold zipper like I do in Saudi Arabia
Yup, great work as always.
Basting tape also acts as a water barrier doesn’t it? Makes sense to me to baste & double stitch

Can you show me how to sew fold under Zipper on a curve?
Do you have an example photo of what that is? Send it to eric@sailrite.com

Your foot is literally walking! 😳
It's enough to give me a foot fetish!
Would that be waterproof if it was up on a roof?

I love this way of adding in a zipper, can it be used also on dresses?
Just what I needed thank you 👏🏾👏🏾
Perfect video!!
I was wr..wr..wr... WRONG! LOL. Great Vids! Thanks
What stitch length did you use please?
When sewing canvas we try to use about a 6mm stitch length.

@@JuhaEerikki Sounds good! Thanks!!!
So basically you eased the zipper into place that's what it's called. Just f y I
