@OKSew474Ай бұрын
Hi! You can definitely use pinking shears for the curves in your fabric/vinyl if you don’t cut too close to your stitch line; however I would not recommend pinking shears to help shape curve of the zipper as you run a greater risk of it unraveling. If you do decide to try it I would be liberal with the fray check and/or a lighter to seal the edges but the zipper tape integrity will be better maintained with small snips than pinking shears.

@OKSew474Ай бұрын
Hi Amanda! I have not had any trouble, making sure to keep my snips about 1/8-3/16” and applying fray check, but it does matter what the weave of your zipper is like.

Thank you Susan! I use 1/8” double sided tape, this is the one I get: a.co/d/7Yv1ITv The needle type will vary depending on your specific machine and the materials you are using, so I definitely recommend experimenting on scraps before starting a new project, but I almost always use an 8/12 universal needle with success on my machine so that is what I start with; then if it is not working for thicker layers of vinyl I will switch up a 9/14 microtex needle.

@OKSew4744 ай бұрын
I perhaps surprisingly use a universal 12/80 needle for almost all of my sewing. I experimented with many different needle types & sizes and for my particular machine that is what has consistently given me the best result. I used bigger and/or sharper needles as is often recommended for bags and especially vinyl, but none gave me as good of a result as a boring old organ needle. I definitely suggest experimenting with similar material type & thickness to work out what works best for you, it can be so variable!

Oh no!! Snipping the zipper will cause zippers to fray and pull out of the seam. I strongly suggest never doing that. Otherwise, this is a fabulous pattern! Thank you for sharing!
@OKSew4744 ай бұрын
Thanks for the feedback! It is certainly optional to snip the zipper but in order to get the shape I was going for and have an even zipper I felt it was necessary for this pattern. You are absolutely correct, snipping the zipper can cause it to fray, especially those horrible striped ones 😱, but thankfully with short snips and the fray check I haven’t had any problems with the minimal amount of stress on the zipper in this pattern or those from other designers where snipping is called for in any bags I have made over the years. 🤞
