FIXING - zipper replacement

The ladies seem to love their jeans from urban outfitters, but the jeans on those have some severe QC issues. I can only imagine how many gals are pinning them up/closed, or have given up and thrown them in the back of the closet.

Look at this ridiculous zipper. How many teeth is it missing?!! I found my awesome stitch ripper. It was so much easier using a stitch ripper than an x-acto knife. I like this larger stitch ripper (thanks Grandma and Grandpa). It is so nice being able to hold it with the control of a pen.

There is an earlier post that that goes over taking apart the seams and putting a new zipper in. That is exactly what I did. I paid attention to where things were. Then I put the new zipper in very carefully.

I guess someday I will make a more detailed post, with what feet I use and the order I do it.

 

It looks like new. I even had a black and brass one. Here it is done. It looks like nothing happened. That is the goal.
