Description

A delicate, pale pink. For children's clothes, baby pieces and anything meant to look light, it is the obvious pick. 60 cm runs the whole back of an evening dress. On mattress and upholstery covers it is the length that lets the cover open completely.

Invisible means: no visible placket, no topstitching beside the teeth, just a closed seam line with a slider at its end. A fine 3 mm coil on a tape in 100 % polyester makes that possible. Roll the coil flat with an iron before sewing, then your seam comes close enough to the teeth and the fastener truly disappears. Sew both sides from top to bottom, or one half travels against the other.

What Invisible Zip 60 cm Pale Pink is suitable for

Evening dresses, because this opening runs the whole back.
Costume pieces, because that seam still looks closed.
Bridal gowns, because that seam stays closed down the back.

Sewing tips

Ein spezieller Nähfuß für nahtverdeckte Reißverschlüsse ist praktisch Pflicht — er rollt die Spirale auf und führt die Naht direkt darunter.
Der Verschluss wird eingenäht, BEVOR die Naht darunter geschlossen wird. Das ist umgekehrt zum normalen Reißverschluss.
Vor dem Nähen die Spirale mit dem Bügeleisen auf niedriger Stufe flach ausrollen, dann kommt die Naht nah genug an die Zähne.
Beide Seiten von oben nach unten nähen, nicht gegenläufig — sonst verzieht sich die eine Seite gegen die andere.
Am unteren Ende so weit nähen, wie der Fuß kommt, dann den Rest der Naht mit normalem Fuß schließen und die letzten Zentimeter von Hand verriegeln.
Bei dehnbaren Stoffen ein schmales Formband oder Vlieseline in die Nahtzugabe legen, damit die Kante gerade bleibt.
Zum Waschen schließen und nicht direkt über den Schieber bügeln.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a special presser foot?

Practically yes. An invisible zip foot rolls the coil open as you sew and guides your seam right beneath it. Without one, your seam stays too far away and the teeth show.

How do I finish the lower end?

Sew as far as the foot will go, switch to an ordinary zip foot and close the rest of the seam. Backstitch those last centimetres at the join by hand, so nothing gapes.

Which needle should I use?

A universal needle in a suitable size will do; on fine fabrics a Microtex. More important than the needle is not sewing across the coil — it is plastic, and a needle breaks easily there.

What do I do with the upper tape end?

It disappears into the seam allowance of your facing or waistband. Fold it outwards there, so it cannot jam under the slider and your fastener runs right to the top.
