Technical Module: All About the Zipper! (Level 3)

After discovering the first techniques related to zippers in level 1 and level 2, do you want to go further?
Do you want to install zippers (neatly) in your intermediate and advanced projects without any worries, for example to install detachable zippers on your jackets and coats like professionals?
Do you want to know our tips for adjusting their length?
Do you want to have 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 to sew:
- a detachable zipper on a jacket or coat
- a detachable zipper that is not necessarily the right size -> adjustment method
- an invisible zipper with facings, a hook, ...

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