Hello,
I am new to all this so please be patient!

I am a sewer and would like some instruction/advice on how to fit an "invisible" zip. I have recently started making dresses for my daughter and she prefers zips in the side seam which I have never either seen done, or done myself and am finding it really difficult. Am I likely to see a demonstration of the technique at one of your workshops? If so, which one?

Also, am just starting on patchwork/quilting. When is your next course on this subject?

I live in Southern Spain and I wish there was an Abakahn here! I am a very frequent customer at the Mostyn branch and never come home without at least one suitcase full!!
