Choosing a zipper
Decide separating or closed-end. A jacket needs a separating zipper that opens fully at the bottom; a skirt, dress, cushion or bag needs a closed-end one. Two-way separating zippers open from the bottom as well and are the parka and long-coat choice.
Then the chain. Nylon coil is light, flexible and the general-purpose choice for dresses, bags and cushions; invisible zippers are coil zippers with the teeth turned inward and need an invisible zipper foot; metal zippers suit jeans, leather and workwear; molded plastic (YKK Vislon) is the outdoor and sportswear chain that does not freeze or corrode.
Length is measured from the top of the slider to the bottom stop, not the tape. Closed-end zippers can be shortened from the bottom; separating zippers are shortened from the top. Zipper-by-the-yard is cut to length with separate pulls and is the economical option for bag makers using several zippers per bag.
Buttons are sized in lines and in fractions of an inch; the Dill range here lists the diameter in the product name. Snaps are sold by size number: 4/0 for lightweight, 1/0 to 2/0 for shirts and bags, size 24 for heavy snaps set with a press.
Frequently asked questions
How do I shorten a zipper?
Closed-end coil zippers: sew a bar tack across the coil at the new length and cut below it. Separating zippers: shorten from the top, removing teeth and fitting new top stops.
Which zipper foot do I need?
A standard zipper foot for coil, metal and molded zippers; an invisible zipper foot for invisible zippers. Both are in presser feet, filtered by your machine model.
Are Dill buttons sold singly or on cards?
By the card as listed in the product name. Sizes are given as fractions of an inch.
