Press the seam open. Finish raw edges if necessary. Apply glue stick lightly on the right side of the zipper. Place the zipper face-down, so that the zipper's coils or teeth are directly over the machine-basted seam. Pin in place, if necessary. Spread fabric flat, right side up and place ½" wide transparent or perforated marking tape on top of the centered seam line. The tape should be the length of the zipper (7" long for this exercise). Replace the Standard Presser Foot with the Zipper Foot. Adjust the foot to the left of the needle. On the right side of the fabric, stitch around the zipper. Pivot the fabric on the needle at the corners, using the edge of the tape as a guide. Turn fabric to right side and remove the tape and the basting. Press. 8
