How to Install a Zipper Using the Butler Method

How to Install a Zipper Using the Butler Method.
In this video we do a lil DIY of installing a zipper into a pouch, using the Butler Method. I ramble a bit. If that's a problem, you might want to try Whitney Sews or a Crafty Gemini tutorial instead. They're great!
Change Purse, Coin Pouch, Zipper Pouch, Zipper.

Thanks. I’m learning to do zippers now with the tabs I’m going to try this method

[@kimgold100]

I think you did a great job of showing this method. You explained everything very well.

[@invisiblegoddesscreations]

Thank you so much!

[@Dulceknits]

Great method and tutorial.👍🏼I like to make zipper pouches and you explained this method very well. Thank you.

[@invisiblegoddesscreations]

Glad it was helpful!

Could you please explain what is different about the Butler method?

[@8SmileyLady]

You are an excellent and meticulous instructor! I am going to save this in my video library. If (Lord, please no) I ever do a project that needs a zipper I will adhere to your lesson. I absolutely hate machine sewing and do as little hand sewing as possible. My mother was a seamstress until her eyes have played out on her. My sisters can sew. I wanted to craft and paint and...everything but sew. 😉 I love that you use those little clips. Thank you for this.

[@invisiblegoddesscreations]

I loathe hand sewing! Everything I can do on the sewing machine, I do. The clips are Amazon. I've broken a few, but at less than 10 bucks for 100 of them, I'm ok with that. Lol. The "Clover" ones are quite pricey!

Yes black fabric and bad lighting????

You're commenting on a nearly 3 year old video.

❓ to me a butler end leaves an open space at the end of the zipper. Am I wrong ❓

[@invisiblegoddesscreations]

There's an open space at one end. Are you asking about both ends?

[@barbarasaracini1271]

I have NO idea what you just did and why. I personally love the look of the zipper tab and it's so much faster than what you just did. But....if it works for you, that's all the matters.

[@invisiblegoddesscreations]

I respectfully disagree with you. When not filming for a video, the Butler method is a faster than installing zipper tabs.

[@barbarasaracini1271]

@@invisiblegoddesscreations It may be faster, but as I said, I like the look of the zipper tab myself. But we can't all like the same thing and I think it's great that you've done a tutorial for those who are into it. 😀

Lady we can’t see???

[@invisiblegoddesscreations]

Would you like to elaborate so I may improve my filming? Have you filmed video's for TH-cam? As you can see from my video, it's really not that easy to get a good angle on a sewing machine. I am open to your suggestions. Please share them.

90* angle

I feel so dumb when I can't get the right term out!
