Lightning McStitch replied to the topic Invisible zipper in the forum oliver + s: fairy tale 10 years ago
Once you’re happy with the zipper, and you’ve sewn the bottom skirt, you will stitch the extra zipper tape to the skirts seam allowance.

I am so glad you got to sew Masha. We are all thinking of you here.

I find if I carefully stretch the main to match the binding, just a bee’s whisker mind, there are less puckers.

I would slash and spread along the middle of the buttock and mark the point on the facing adding the same amount to that.

Is there a direction written to place one side on a fold?
