Ok, I'm new to sewing/quilting and I'm trying to make a wallet with a zipper.

I keep having trouble with the bobbin thread getting into a tangled mess, and I'm hoping it's because I'm not using a zipper foot?

Why am I not using a zipper foot, you ask? Because I don't know what they look like... (hangs head in shame.) lol

My late MIL (who is probably getting a huge kick out of this, lol) left her featherweight to us, and I'm really trying to learn how to use it. There are so many 'extras' with it though - it has a ton of crazy foot attachments, but I'm not sure if one of them is a zipper foot or not. I'd assume there was one in the bunch, b/c she had EVERYTHING when she was alive, hehe. (This is only one of 3 featherweights, for example.)

I tried to google it, but got several different pics so I'm no better off than before I searched.

Does anyone have one that they can take a picture of so I can look through these and see if I have one like it? Or should I take a pic of the ones I have (there are a lot) and post that instead?

I feel like such a dummy, lol.
