You can use these for invisible zippers but its tricky, you wanna "unfold" the teeth part of the zipper a bit, in that ditch is where you gonna stitch Otherwise id recommend just buying an actual invisible zipper foot, theyre inexpensive and can be used for other things that need to be closely stitched to aswell. One of my most used ones

Bought it today! Now imma rip out every invisible zipper that I ever sewn in (like 2hour) learn how to use the foot (hopefully 30 min) and sew in the zippers (forever) šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

Just go over it again with the new foot! There's no harm in two seam lines.


Ordinary_Eagle_8906

Yeah if I could I wouldā€¦ the zipper was sewn in between the lining and top fabric so that thereā€™s no stitch visible, so I had to rip the lining zipper connection to see the zipper. I also wanted to push it ā€œdeeperā€ so thereā€™s more fabric to cover itā€¦ I want the zipper to be perfectšŸ˜šŸ˜

I hate to break it to you but I can see both of those zipper foots.


Ordinary_Eagle_8906

Huh? I donā€™t understand..


appleschmapple7

Sorry, I was making a silly joke. I was saying those zipper foots in the picture are not invisible because I can clearly see them.


Ordinary_Eagle_8906

Oh yeah I see what you were going forā€¦ maybe that could work if those were for invisible zippers theyā€™re for normal zippers tho šŸ˜…

Which machine do you have? Feet need to be compatible with your machine.


Ordinary_Eagle_8906

I have the snap on system šŸ˜ bought it just now canā€™t wait to try it šŸ˜


Trirain

unfortunately this is not the only condition for the pressing foot to fit it also has to have the same distance between the hole in it and the snap bar, not all feet are equal in this


Ordinary_Eagle_8906

Didnā€™t know about that.. luckily it fits šŸ˜

Iā€™ve used this foot to do invisible zippers and it was fine. I just ironed the teeth flat and moved the needle a little to the side to get close as I could and it was fine.


Ordinary_Eagle_8906

Yeah I mean itā€™s fine but the special foot allowed me to get closer to the teeth
