I have a sweater but it’s too long I can’t shorten this zipper. Even the fact of a world pandemic Corona I can’t go outside from my home. I have a sewing machine in my home when I see your video and read your article very attentively then I have done this work at my home. Thank you for sharing these great tips.

It isn’t quite perfect, there’s some puckering and wrinkling, but I love it anyway. It’s mine and I designed and made it all by myself!

I am in the middle of a project with a separating zipper that is too long and I am waiting for the right size zipper to be shipped to me but I don’t feel like waiting. I’ll give this a try!

I believe about 2″ for an added 1″ in length. I used the Brunswick band lengths actually, if you happen to have that.

The tutorial is very detailed, thank you so much! When you say you lengthened all the bands how much did you lengthen them by?
