I've just watched 3 lapped zip tutorials and you're the ONLY person who has explained how to make the lap in a way that makes sense. I've been sewing for 30 years and it's never made sense until now. Thanks heaps!

Thank you very much !For years I've been sewing zippers with slightly looped sides. Today I'm proud of my neat sewing .Thanks to you tube and you ❤

Thank you so much! after watching a lot of useless lapped zipper tutorials , and getting more and more frustrated, finally I came across your brilliant video !! You are the best teacher !! Thank You🎊

Your video so far has been the best... I been watching videos on lapped zipper for days..

I've been sewing since I was ...10? And I'm 41 now. (Pretty much self taught) I've always hated zippers with a passion. I decided to figure out what I've been missing that makes it so hard. I've been watching videos for 2 hours. Everyone teaches a lapped zip but they skip over exactly how to get those edges and seam allowances where they need to be. You explained it exactly how I needed to hear it Thank you!

I have watched so many lapped zipper videos but it's only now that I really understand it. Marking the original seam allowance made it so much easier to understand. Thank you!

So far the best tutorial for a lapped zip! Thank you.

I think this is the easiest tutorial I've seen . Thank you for the details in the explanation you've saved me so much time and given me a much better finish on my dress ❤

Brilliant and very clear. Subscribed!

Very good with clear instructions.

Very nice demonstration. I've watched a few videos on lapped zips and yours is the only one that showed how not to get a bubble at the bottom.

I tried other videos but didn't come out the way I wanted. This video was so helpful to learn placing the zipper. Thank you!

This is the best and fastest method for heavy gowns made from expensive fabrics. There are other tutorials on KZfaq using wonder tape or using machine basting which are not really useful unless you're making a simple project esp using cotton material. Not everyone has access to wonder tape. Also the basting method by machine can even cause bubbles and wrinkles which after you seam rip the material will cause further damage I recommend this method only. Esp for beginners

Thank you so much for this video - I feel like I have mastered the zip and all down to your clear instructions. So thanks!

I'm an experience sewist, but have never done a lapped zip before. Thank you for your clear and concise instructions; I'm just off to insert my first lapped zip!

Wonderrful video. I havent put a zip into clothes for years. I realise now where i was making my mistake. I will try one today in a dress i am making. Thanks

Amazing tutorial. Thank you very much. Following your instructions I was able to install my best lapped zip to date.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I've just completed my 1st ever lapped zip while sewing along to your video. It's in the centre back of a denim skirt and looks sooooo much better than the "centred" zip I've always used. I love it, thank you 💗.

I've been trying to find a tutorial with precise instructions and close up , straight to the point. Thanks so much for this!!

Awesome instructions

I love the way you give details

Loved your precise teaching

Best instructions ! Thank you

Will definitely try this.thank u.

Nice thank you. You are so helpful and precise with details, nice close up.

The best tutorial so far

There are so many lapped zip tutorials on KZfaq, and I think I've tried them all. I do believe this is the best I have ever seen. Beautiful result. The only thing I struggle with, but you don't seem to have this problem, is topstitching over the tacking guide threads. I find that they are locked in by the topstitching and can never really be completely removed. So annoying!

brilliant. thank you!!!

Wooooow amazing

Great video, thank you!

well done!

Great tutorial! It was easy to follow and looks great for even the first time. Thank you to share it!

Thank you❤you made it look very easy🙌

Thank you ma'am

So grateful 🙏

thanks for this tutoral

Thank you very much

This was really clear, thank you! I'm thinking of making some summery pants and was wondering if you recommended inserting the zipper this way or another way like the fly zip or invisible zip?
