How To Put In A Zipper For Pillow With Cording

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Inserting a zipper into a pillow can seem daunting at first, especially if you're making a pillow with cording or piping around the edges. But, I promise, it's really not hard to do! My tutorial will walk you through each step, and in no time you'll be making your own custom-looking pillows!

Fine tutorial. East to follow…no music to distract and I will be using your instructions as I have some pillows I wish to make in this fashion.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Thanks for watching!

[@kelleygarfield737]

So I have to tell you! I have watched many videos on adding a zipper next to cording and yours was by far the easiest to understand and navigate! Thank you so much!

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

I'm so glad this tutorial was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[@RebeccaJester]

This is hands down the best video tutorial I've seen for putting in a zipper on a corded pillow! (and I've watched a bunch in the past few days) I made new covers for 3 large pillows that are the back cushions on my son's favorite (well-loved and dirty) sofa. I found your video after making one pillow cover using a different technique. The two I made using your instructions came out so nice that I'm going to take the other one apart and redo it! Thanks for teaching me a new skill!

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Thank you so much for your cording and your zippered pillow tutorials. I've been struggling with these sewing functions for years. I now know how to do it in a reasonably easy way!

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

You are so welcome!

[@little1942]

I am so glad I found this! I was asked to make a pillow as a gift for the national president of an organization I belong to from our unit. (No pressure, right? Lol.). I decided on a cathedral window with an embroidered emblem on the front and an embroidered back. Then decided on cording too. As I applied the cording, it dawned on me, “ I’ve never installed a zipper with cording!” Thanks to this wonderfully explained tutorial, all went well on the first try! It turned out so beautiful! My local unit was stunned when I unveiled the finished product. It will be presented to the president of our organization on the 10th of may. Thank you so much for guiding me through the proper technique of a perfectly installed zipper!

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

I am sooo glad this tutorial was helpful to you! Sounds like you did a great job!

[@melswen1]

[@cindyhappel7376]

Jan your video was very well done. I used to do a lot of zippers like this, but that was almost 25 years ago when I had my professional draperies soft- furnishings business. This is the way I did it but couldn’t actually remember all the steps, your video was as close as I did it before and was very straight-forward. Thank you!!

[@nan0908]

Thanks for this tutorial! I learned to do this around 2003 with a tutorial on a VHS tape that I think came from The Pillow Lady! That tape went missing and now 16 years later I want to make pillows but all I have are my notes from that tape. I am so happy I stumbled on your video that does such a nice job of explaining this technique.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Oh my I’ve watched this a bazillion times I’ve been trying to sew a zipper and thick cords to two sticks of butter 😂 aka velvet with a 1/4 inch seem , Lady you are a saint for posting this many blessings your way for coming to my rescue!!! 😅😅😅😅

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Thanks for watching!

[@acuteteacher]

Thanks so much for this! I used your directions to make three pillows, one with fringe and two with self-made piping. I used down alternative inserts. Each one cost about $25 in materials but they feel and look like more expensive pillows. I used 20" squares of fabric to begin with which fit my 20" inserts beautifully. For future reference, this was what I did the first few days during the Corona virus pandemic isolation.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

[@BebopTreuheit]

Thank you, Jann, for all of your very clear videos. These are helping me a lot. I have a question. Does an invisible zipper need a placket? I noticed in one pillow zipper video you put a placket in with a regular zipper and in the invisible zipper video you didn’t use a placket. Does an invisible zipper on a pillow look better without a placket? Or just not need one? Just FYI: I never sewed before. Now I make silk pillows with my own cording, masks, and now drapes, all because of your very clear videos. I have a new hobby thanks to you.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

No, an invisible zipper does not need a placket. Thanks for watching!

[@susanross2000]

Good advice I was wondering about that myself! Thank you!

[@marciahenden5334]

Hello Jann. I have already left a comment, but have been watching so many of your videos this last week and feel so inspired! You really are a such great teacher and your voice is calming! I really do not need to go nowhere now on You Tube as you have everything covered! I really do love this tutorial and am about to start making the cushion, and wanted to know the exact width size of the zip that you used please (I know the zip measures 11" in length)? Loved the Ottoman tutorial too! I really am spoilt for choice. Thank you so much for your videos, you are such a professional!

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Thank you for your kind words. I probably used a professional zipper roll for this zipper, but any zipper you find at JoAnn's or Hobby Lobby work too. Thanks for watching!

Thank you!!

[@marciahenden5334]

This is such a great video which I have just come across ... Your fabric measures 14.5" and your zip measures 11". Can you get pillow forms that measure the same as your fabric (14.5"). What size pillow form do you use? Your work is just excellent!! Thank you so much for this most informative video Jann.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

14" pillow form. I always cut my fabric so that the pillow cover is a little snug.

Love this video!! Can't wait to use your method on three pillows I have to make for a friend! I was going to use another route I'm going to nix that and sew it your way... I do have one question tho, do I need to cut the back side a little bigger than the front side to allow for the flap? Thank you so so much!

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Nope, the front and back are the same size.

[@katherinesimpson6148]

Hi great video. Just wondering whether you add a little extra material to allow for the placket ?

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

No, I don't add in extra fabric for the placket. The front and back sides are cut the same size. Which is the same size as my pillow form. Thanks for watching!

[@ellenharwood7617]

Putting a zipper into a corded cushion is not an easy task. You broke it down into component parts so that I was able to follow. To reinforce my learning I make drawings and annotated them. We are in lockdown as people around the world are. My aim is to make beautiful cushions as you see in the posh magazines for my garden and that will bring a smile to my face when I have completed each one.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

[@SK-ph2nv]

Hi Jann, Thank you for the informative video. Everything looks great, but when I turn the pillow right side out, the corners at each end of the zipper PUCKER. Can you tell me what I may be doing wrong? Thank you.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Hmmm... without seeing it in person, it's very hard to tell what may have happened.

[@AnnoulaXeni]

Wonderful, useful video. I'd have had difficulty just figuring this out on my own so thank you very much. Also -- can you recall the manufacturer of that beautiful fabric?

No need. Make as shown in the video.

Hi Jann what model Brother sewing machine is it your using? Do you recommend it, I’m looking for a good machine that will handle any fabric light or heavy with ease. Regards Steve

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

This was filmed a few years ago in my drapery workroom. It is an industrial sewing machine, and it was a workhorse. Bought it used. I don't have it anymore, don't have room for it in our new home.

[@marycain7424]

Thanks for a very helpful tutorial. Can you tell me how wide you made that seam allowance?

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

The seam allowance is 1/2"

[@cacciatoredianatre]

thank you Jann. What tolerance do you allow for the placard? The back side of the pillow would need to be slightly larger than the front to allow for that finger hem to the cording. correct? It looks like the back would need to be about a 1/2" longer. Great video.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Both sides of the pillow are cut the same size as your pillow insert. For instance, if your pillow form is a 16" x 16' insert, then you would cut both the front and back sides of the fabric at 16" x 16". This makes for a nice fit, not too baggy. Thanks for watching!

[@chrbx13]

What is the name of the material you used for this pillowcase?

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Pretty sure this fabric is discontinued. I bought more than ten years ago from Greenhouse Fabrics.

[@dianearredondo8180]

Hello and thank you for this great tutorial. My pillow is 24 inches in length and the packaged zippers come in even numbers only (e.g. 20, 22, 24). If my zipper should be 3 inches shorter than the fabric size I would need a 21-inch zipper, which I am not able to find. Can I use a shorter or longer one? Thank youl.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Use a 22" zipper, or cut down a 24".

[@drummergirl9481]

If you were sewing an 18 x 18 pillow, should I cut 19 x 19 squares, or should it be something else? Just want to make sure I do it right. thank you for sharing this video. It will be my first time making a corded pillow that has a zipper.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

No, follow the directions in the video. I like my pillow covers snug, not loose and baggy. Thanks for watching!

How can I prevent sewing THROUGH the cording?

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

May take some practice, and using a zipper or cording foot helps.

[@candicehodge5346]

Thank you for your tutorials. Question, is it better to zigzag or serge? I’d like to invest in a serger but am wondering...is there a such thing as a good brand/line of sergers or is it strictly preference? Thank you

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Either works fine. If you'renot going to do a lot of serging, I would not invest in a serger. Mine is an industrial model.

[@heleni0]

The Brother 1034D is a good entry-level/budget serger. A zigzag will do you just fine though.

[@debbieborrie3528]

Thank you that was a great help. But anyone reading.. you must leave zip open before sewing all around to finish or you can't turn right side out.

[@katstr51]

I like this video a lot, except I am confused on the length the zipper is supposed to be. ;you say it should be 3" shorter than the fabric, and your fabric is cut 14-1/2" and your zipper is at 11". That is 3.5". , not 3 inches. Half an inch is not very much, but in a project, it can make a BIG difference. So, if my fabric is cut at 12", should my zipper be at 9.0" or 9.5"? Do you mean to say that the zipper should be cut at 3" shorter than the finished size of the fabric? I am trying your method on a gift project for a good friend, and I don't want to flub it up. Also you refer to the zipper that you have"already prepared"---this video does not contain any of that prep. Easy enough for me to "wing it" on that--but I'd like more clear info on the zipper length. I have a drawer full of very long zippers which I cut down for various projects.

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

So sorry! I should have said that my fabric is cut at 14". I like to cut my fabric the same size as my pillow form for a snugger pillow cover. So, for a 14"x14" pillow form, I cut my fabric at 14"x14". Thanks for watching!

I would love to have an industrial machine with a table. I've got a domestic Janome. I suppose it could be my fault, but I swear I've followed the rules - it's just so noisy and it doesn't seem to want to co-operate. It's a newish machine, haven't done that much at all on it - so it can't be fatigue. I really wish I'd have saved-up for a Bernina or something. Your machine hardly makes a sound. I contemplated buying a second-hand one, but I would have no idea who to trust, or even what to look for. I'm just venting!
