Finishing Stitches for Sewing Zippers

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Candi Cane Canncel with Expert Village. In this clip we're going to finish up our railroad zipper. Now we're going to do the other side so in order to do this side, we're going to take our zipper foot and switch it out to the reverse side. Just move it over and lock it into place. Move your threads out of the way so I'm going to move our zipper head out of the way and now we're going to do the same thing on the this side. We're going to line up your needle with the last stitch that you did and we'll go ahead put in the needle into place. Start stitching and come back; now we're just going to bring it on home. Now after we finish this side, we're going to go ahead and pop open the rest of the little threads. This is why this is such a great idea to put basting stitch in because it holds the zipper in place and it's so easy to take out to make like a really clean little seam. These little threads just come right out if you get that are a little stubborn, just go ahead and cut it. Pull out your pins and there you have it a really easy very fun professional looking railroad zipper."
