Sew a Fabric Tab End on a Zipper!

Sew a Fabric


Slice a piece of textile that measures 1 3/4 " (4. 5cm) N x 4" (10cm) They would. Press 1/4 " (6mm) to an incorrect side on both short ends of the fabric piece. *Note: the width cutting dimension is if you are utilizing a 1" (2. 5cm) wide zipper. Adjust your width measurement to suit the width of the zipper that you are using. You may also adapt the height or length you cut if you need a longer or not as long zipper tab too.


Then fold the part right-sides-together with the press edges at the top and sew a 0.25 " (6mm) seam on the 2 sides. The top is open and the bottom is where the fold is. I actually used yellow thread in the picture so you could see where you can sew, but you would want to match your carefully thread color to the cloth color when you affix your tab.


Subsequent trim off the four corners at an position and turn your part right-sides-out. Gently poke out the corners so they may be nice and square.



Provide a good press.  anda then Slip your freezer end into the little zipper tab.



Then simply you will top-stitch around all four sides about 1/8" (3mm) from the advantage. Now you have a nice zipper end to grab on to when you are zipping your zipper closed.
