As for the zip, you may want to grade the intersecting seams as much as possible without losing the strength/integrity of them. It's also a good idea to reinforce them before grading. Also you may want to prep the zip prior to installing. It does help to lightly press it and if it's going into a curved area shape it over a pressing ham.

I think one of my strengths is my ignorance lol I kind of just jump into things without the knowledge and apprehension that they're difficult lol It's been working so far lol<br />And it's weird. I have NO problem with them on a straight seam, but add in that intersection and I'm just at a loss.TheTellTaleTashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03537226937891698569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2924569835026299549.post-27531644346446072122014-10-14T08:14:39.839-04:002014-10-14T08:14:39.839-04:00I love that this is your basic black skirt!

I think you did a great job recreating your inspiration skirt, and I agree with Sasha, you were working with some tricky fabrics, so well done! You look amazing and it turned out awesome! Invisible zips are always a bit touch and go for me too. Sometimes, for whatever reason, they just don't want to behave! sallie oleta barbeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00184217699471081340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2924569835026299549.post-21214785400953684102014-10-14T07:50:40.198-04:002014-10-14T07:50:40.198-04:00Thanks, Sasha!

For the arch I actually just folded under, stitched, and pressed REALLY well lol<br /><br />What do you do when you hit that zipper problem??TheTellTaleTashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03537226937891698569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2924569835026299549.post-8630945035958951812014-10-14T04:17:19.278-04:002014-10-14T04:17:19.278-04:00Those are really tricky fabrics to work with and y...Those are really tricky fabrics to work with and you did such a fantastic job! I love the way the arch holds its shape and the finish on it - what is it there- a sort of bias edging? Those pesky zipper insertions bum me out too. Can't wait to see the results of your binge pattern cutting ;)Sashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13189832250103362452noreply@blogger.com
