For all who fight with sticky or broken zippers here are a few ideas to help, everyone;

1. To make a zipper work smoothly,run a candle up and down the teeth. If it is really sticky,
use wax paper or a lead pencil.
2. Lost or broken pull up tab; use a safety pin or paper clip.
3. If a zipper pulls apart at the bottom. Carefully undo the stitching, remove the stop and
separate the zipper completely. Put the sides back into the pull and zip it up.
Then, run a zigzag stitch across the bottom of the zipper to create a new stop.

More about replacing zippers another day.

Looking for your creative ideas too . Joan
