Video Tutorial: The Zipper Flower

by Sal on November 18, 2009 · 15 comments

How did that crazy zipper neckpiece get made? Well, I’ll tell ya. Or, at least, I’ll tell ya how to assemble the basic zipper-y unit.

And I will do so WITHOUT THE BENEFIT OF A HEAD. Heads are so last season anyway …

OK, I"m at a course so I can't watch this now but I want to say that, for a woman who doesn't sew, you sure have some fancy equipment!! I love it. Can't wait to see this later.

I love your necklace. I've been meaning to try making a zipper brooch for ages but watching your video tutorial finally made me get around to it. There's a picture of it here Zipper Rosette
