Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the zipper?
The invisible zip is installed at the center back seam, from the waistband down through the skirt. It is invisible from the outside when properly installed.
Is the invisible zip hard to install?
It takes practice but is very doable for beginners. The key is to press the zip coils before sewing so they lie flat, and to use a dedicated invisible zipper foot.
