About this Event
In this class, students will learn how to use a sewing machine to install a zipper. We will focus on (and practice!) basic zipper installations using acrylic coil zippers. We will also discuss more complex applications such as invisible zips, metal zippers, and zip flies.
Prerequisite: Sewers of all levels are welcome, as long as they have at least a basic practical understanding of machine sewing, including terms such as backstitching, seam allowance, and stitch length.
About the instructor, Amelia: Amelia taught adult general and apparel sewing classes for four years. During that time, she taught zipper classes for beginning-level sewers as well as a backpacks class and some garment sewing classes which involved more advanced zipper installations (beefier zippers, invisible zippers, etc).
Our sliding scale for classes helps to reduce barriers for participation while retaining sufficient income for Seattle REconomy, which owns and operates the NE Seattle and Shoreline tool libraries. Please choose the level that best fits your family’s income.
