I WANT TO SEW ZIPPERS

6.04.2006

Allright, this is just a little post to get something off my chest. I really really really want to sew zippers. I have never sewn a zipper and I my machine does not have a zipper foot, sooo no zippers. For the longest time I never dared to try a zipper, but now, I am really up for the challenge. I dream of little zipper coin purses to go with my bags and fun summer skirts (not being of the flat tummy crowd it is important to have zippers and not elastic waists- it's one of the rules on What Not to Wear) but alas I can only dream to find the perfect zipper foot for my random 12 year old brother sewing machine.
I even bought 10 zippers for $1 at the thrift store. I sit and zip, up and down, up and down. Okay, I feel much better now that I have voiced my need. I wish they had a little sewing cafe where I could use their machine, have a latte and scone and maybe try out serger and walking foot. All right off to bed with dreams of walking feet and zippers.....
