Sew Many Zippers
Sew much bag hardware.
I’ve spoken before about how the zipper buy scam works. Generally zippers will get sent out from the proceeds of the thread buy, and the thread will be purchased eventually from the next open zipper buy and so on and so on.
I thought I would once and for all do a comparison here so you can make up your own mind about where and how quickly you get your zips and other hardware in the future. Ready? Here we go.

You can also find ZipperStop on Amazon
Or you can always YKK by the yard which fat cheeks is too lazy to offer.
Even Fabric.com have them cheaper though their range is a bit smaller. You could drop some in your cart while you’re shopping for fabric though. #justsayin
Carry on and let fear drive you forward.
