You can only get better and slicker at doing it - practice, practice (without fear). Good work!

Thanks jitkaau! I am sure I will stock up on zippers now. lol

Wow that is really cute. I have a 6 yo girl so I know the need for easy removal. Was it hard to do? I've only put one zipper in a purse I made like five years ago and it took many attempts before it turned out right. Haven't tried one since. LOL

No, it was really simple. I had to remove one seam but that was my fault for not reading correctly. lol

Congratulations!!!

Great job, pillow is adorable..............

Beautiful pillow, great job on the zipper! Now you are not a novice!! Do it again!!

Good job!! Sometimes the thought of doing something is really worse than the actual doing it. I've felt the same way at times.

I love the cushion it looks very beautiful and I'm with you I hate working with zippers too, I always go with sewn pockets vs putting a zippered one in.
