I've got the jig and still find it a bit fiddly at times, usually ending up kneeling on the floor with the jig gripped between me knees to hold it still while I fight the zip in - your way is MUCH MUCH easier, so thank you!
Heavens - that looks sooooooo easy. I remember in the not too distant past, wrestling with one for hours (unfortunately I don't have much strength in one of my hands - and found that when pulling on the zipper, I couldn't keep a strong enough grip with the other hand, lol) I shall certainly use this method next time.
I'm glad I just found this tip Philip. I could not get my zip ends onto the continuous zip despite being shown by the shop. Your method is so much better than theirs was, thanks.
I soo0o agree that this is absolutely the best way to get the little so-and;-so's onto the zipper. I used to use both hands and my teeth, and it only worked sometimes! I too contemplated buying the jig for doing this, but this method is foolproof.
