Sewing – All about zippers (Level 3)

After discovering the first zipper techniques in level 1 and level 2, do you want to take it a step further?
Would you like to insert zippers (neatly) into your intermediate and advanced projects without any hassle, such as sewing separating zippers onto your jackets and coats like a pro? 
Would you like to learn our tips and tricks for adjusting their length?
Do you want flawless finishes for your invisible zippers?
Then the technical course: All about zippers is made for you!

In this 3-hour workshop, we will create technical samples to learn the best methods for sewing:
- a separating zipper on a jacket or coat
- a separating zipper that isn't necessarily the right size -> adjustment method
- an invisible zipper with facings, a hook and eye, ...

You will head home with your samples to guide you in your future projects.

Prerequisites: from intermediate level up and/or knowing how to insert a visible and invisible zip and/or having taken module 1 and/or 2 on zippers
