Sewing tutorial: How to shorten a zipperI have a huge stash of zippers I’ve picked up through the years.  I find it’s easier just to have a bunch of zippers on hand rather than running out to the fabric store every time I need one.  But… those zippers are rarely the right length!  Luckily, it’s easy enough to shorten a zipper.  Vicky from Vicky Myers Creations has a great tutorial showing how shorten zippers.  Her tutorial includes how to shorten nylon zippers and also metal zippers.
