You’re a lifesaver! A day before a wedding and my dress zipper broke! I was freaking out! Your video saved me
Ouch, glad to help!
How has your life changed compared to when you made this comment?

Thank you! One of my little students was so upset today that he "broke his marker case". I brought it home, found your video and now I have a happy 3 year old!
This is going to cut my production time in half 😍😍 thank so much Brenda you are amazing
Thank you so much for your AWESOMELY informative video. I took on a task to recover my outside swing cushion and I accidently took the pull off the zipper and couldn't get it back on. I tried for an hour. Then I watched your video and I fixed it!!! Too bad I was all alone cuz I was cheering and jumping up and down!!! Thank you so much!!
You are definitely a lifesaver. The zip came off on my overnight bag which was full while I was travelling. I used your technique on my away bag and it worked brilliantly. Thank you so much!
Thank you Brenda .. is been fighting with a zipper for hours .. then you came along !!!

OMG ... in 2022 this is still helping people .... I came... I sewed.... and I conquered ! I have been fighting a zipper on a purse for about 3 months ... not even 1 minute after watching this video ... I fixed it .. thank you so much!!
Excellent. As zippers continue to get broken it's possible that this video ought to outlive me. My legacy!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! You saved my project!
My goodness! I looked at many other sites but your video fixed my problem in a couple of minutes. thank you so much for sharing this tip
Omg you're a lifesaver Brenda! I really appreciate your time to make this video! I did the exact thing you described in the beginning, it was like you were reading my mind!
Thank you so much! I got a handmade pillow cover for my MIL and the zipper pull flew off when I put the pillow insert in. You saved the day!
Glad to have saved the day. Merry X-mas!

OMG YOU’RE A LIFE SAVER THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I TRIED FIXING MINE FOR LIKE 30 mins then I gave up and searched on how😭 to fix it and here I am(Fixed it less than 2 mins😂😂)
Super! I'm happy to have simplified your day!
Thank you! That just saved a bag from going into landfill here in beautiful New Zealand. Feeling very pleased and grateful now!

U literally saved me. I am out on a trip with limited no. Of pants.. and i just got the zipper out. Thank you. Thank you soo much
Thank you soooo much. I just pulled off the pull & I totally freaked out. You saved me!! Thank you Brenda
Your instructions are the only one to follow, exceptional thank you so so much looked at other You Tube videos that say to remove coils etc on the zipper tape. Yours works without any of that every time. Thank you.
THANK YOUU!! YOURE A LITERAL LIFESAVER MY BAG WAS BROKEN AND I WAS GONNA RETURN IT BU THANKS TO U I FIXED IT THANK YOUU! YOUR VIDEO IS THE ONLY ONE THAT ACTUALLY WORKED
Thank you so much saved my baby Halloween costume ❤️
Thankyou so much! Been struggling for hours and the angle trick worked first time I went back and tried it. Fab.
I have to say that I have tried 5 other ways here on youtube to fix my zipper and none of them worked at all then I watch your video and I got it right away thank you
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was messing with this for days and finally after seeing your video, I did it instantly. The ANGLE is the trick
Thank you so much! I got a new bag for Christmas and broke the zipper almost right away! You video saved me from an embarrassing moment of having to ask for the receipt from the person who gave it to me to return it!
Those situations are always awkward. Glad to have helped.
Works perfect! My problem was at the bottom of my boots' zipper. The fact of giving it an entry angle changes the whole thing, thank you!
Wow, not nice to not have use of your boots due to a zipper issue. I'm glad I could help. B.
Brilliant!! Had a favourite outdoor jacket which had a detached slider and after watching Brenda's video I was able to reattach . Thank you !!
so clear and easy to follow! im quarantined and trying to make my mom a surprise dress and I made the exact mistake you mentioned! so glad I didn’t have to wait to get another!!
THANK YOU! I broke a zipper on my favorite bag going through TSA at the airport today, and your video gave me the hint I needed to fix it in my hotel room. I am so happy now :-)
Great story with a happy ending!
Oh my gosh! Total lifesaver, literally!!! My toddler has a mesh canopy tent that zips shut to keep him in his bed, and his big sister accidentally pulled the puller right off. Of course I did not find this out until bedtime, and struggled around with it for about an hour before turning to youtube. The angle trick worked first try, thank you so much!!!
You’re the best! I’ve watched so many videos trying to six my bag! Your menthol was so quick and easy !!!
You saved me! I cut off. The top of the zipper stop and forgot to secure it. I made this bag for my sister in law after my brother passed from Covid in March. The Plaid was from his shirt. I finished the bag and when I went to zip the bag it came right off. 😳 I was able to fix it because of your video. Thank you so much.😍🍁🍂
Sorry I could not add the photo
queen you saved my ass i was going to have a meltdown before i saw your video. we stan now
Watched other vids but was getting frustrated, still could nt figure it out, luckily i found your vid. You re the best Lady !!! xxxx
Stumbled across this to fix the zipper on my skirt, thank you!
5 years ago, I ended up pulling my zipper out of the track after a musical performance I was in (the bag was a prop for a show). I always wanted to fix the bag, but I couldn't figure it out for a really long time. Took me till 3:27 in your vid to fix it! I'm so happy and now I can use it again!
I’d just like to take a moment and thank brenda dearly as we had an issue with my friends tops and her zip as we were on the way to go clubbing. Your video taught us how to fix her zip and save the night! Truly you are a hero!
Aw, you make made me smile!
Wowwwww 😮😮😮😮 an absolute life saver. I had a very specific pillowcase I thought was broken for good because the fabric came off the zipper. This is legendary 😌😌😌
I thought my backpack was beyond saving, but now it's repaired! Thanks for showing us how to re-attach a zipper pull 😃

You just saved my bag project! Thank you so much!
Thank you for the video. A couple of weeks after changing out a leaking waterbed tube, I had to unzip the topper and make sure all was well and yessiree, the zipper tab pulled right out 😳. With your video I was able to put it back on and all is as it should be! Thank you! 😁
Thank you Brenda, this saved my life today. I am forever indebted to you lol!
I have dreaded the cold weather my entire life. Unfortunately, I live in Massachusetts. It gets BEYOND cold. I have a horse, so I have to be outside all winter. 4 years ago I found a miracle. A winter coat that I jokingly call my “sleeping bag coat”. It is SO warm that winter became tolerable for the first time in my life!!! Well, 2 winters ago, one of the 2 zipper pulls came off and I thought my magic coat was done for. I froze all winter last winter. Nothing I bought came even close to the warmth of my magic coat. Tonight, it’s going to be 20’ F. I was so dreading going to the barn to take care of my horse, as I’ve been dreading it since my coat “broke”. My favorite thing; playing with and riding my horse has been something I have been forcing myself to do, and I’ve been miserable because I freeze. Well, I decided to just check UA-cam to see if there was any way I could fix my coat because I’ve been online for weeks and it’s been discontinued and no one has it anywhere. I’ve even checked Germany, Canada, and the UK!!! I was desperate!
After watching your video, I sat down with my coat and the pull tab that I had saved, and within 8 seconds, my coat is FIXED!!!!! I can not thank you enough. Words can not express my gratitude to you. You have saved me and have made going to play with my horse during New England winter more than fun again. I thank you from the bottom of my heart and I’m sure my horse will thank you too. I can’t believe I didn’t check sooner!!! #facepalm
Thanks! this probably saved me a trip to the tailor
You made my day!
I loved your video, thank you. Frustrating to finish a pillow and then find I hadn’t secured the zipper end properly! All is not lost!!
Worked like a charm! And on a zipper already sewn into a mattress cover. Thanks!
I just fixed the zipper on a nice American Tourister nylon bag. I was ready to haul it out to the trash. Now I just have to find a heavy-duty needle repair the area where the zipper ended and stitch in a new end for the zipper. I feel so satisfied with my little self today. Love unexpected little victories.
So nice!
Just had a sewing kit delivered and the slider had come off the zip, this worked thank you for sharing
Thank you, helped me fix my favorite top!
Thank you! Saved my project.
OMG amazing. I was able to reattach a zipper on my dog stroller. Thank you so much!
You are amazing!! I bought my girlfriend a $200 leather purse and she had my wallet inside and when I closed the zipper it just ran right off the track! 🤯 it has a zipper exactly like this with no end on them! THANK YOU SO MUCH that’s her current and Favorite Purse! 💙
Good to hear that you got that fixed for her!
This was clear, informative and engaging!
Fixed my zipper :)
I tried and tried on my own to reattach a zipper slide - and one try with your method and I had it on! Thank you!!
You are welcome!
So happy to have found this video! Just fixed the damn invisible zipper on my silk pillowcase that's been broken for months 😭🙏 Thank you!
AAAA I FIXED MY FAV BAG, GOD BLESS U BRENDA
Not everyone that watched this is woman or even a seamstress.
I came here because I pulled the pull off the zipper on my safety vest at work. Thank you very much for showing me how to get it back on
Thank you so much!! Just fixed a throw pillowcase that is super sentimental. Total win!
Wow! Thank youuuu😍 I fixed my bag's zipper😍
Thank you this worked for me saved my favorite bag I've had for years but couldn't fix it til now 🌹♥️
You just saved my zipper! Thanks😻
this kind of stuff doesnt usually bother me but lately i feel like it wont be wrong to say something... in your video your clearly speaking as if only women would be watching this video- i consider myself a domesticated blue collar dude and i looked up this video so i could fix something myself rather than ask my mom or the closest woman to me at the time. dont want this to turn into a big deal - just hoping the next time you make a video you realize that there are men out there who appreciate these helpful lessons on things like this - if i ever make a how to video on something for plumbing (my trade of profession) i will make sure i make it so that i am speaking to both a man and a woman,
thanks for the zipper problem tips much appreciated
You're a lifesaver. Thank you! 💖
You're a lifesaver. THANK YOU!!!
Thank you so much! The zipper on my luggage came off during my trip and I was so devastated... I did the same as you taught and the zipper went back as normal!
Thank you so much! I was being chargers £20 for this and I did this at the second attempt (I'm rubbish at this sort of stuff too) - thanks once again 😃
Thank you sooo much!!! I was sewing a little bag and I tried out the zipper. Then it separatet, but it was the last zipper I had. I watched many videos and it just made it worse lol🤣. After trying what you said I fixed it🤩
Thank you so much. I spent ages fiddling before I found you.
I'm very glad this helped you out Kim.
thank you soooo much!!! I was so mad cause a dress I spent wayy too long making, eighth when I was almost finish the zipper broke, but thank goodness for ur video 😊
Thank you thank you thank you! I thought I was gonna have to get a new phone case and my phone is so old it's nearly impossible. You saved me!
I'm making a bag and did exactly what you described - cut the end, pulled on the zipper without thinking, and OOPS!!! Followed your steps, and the zipper is good to go now. Thank you so much!
Super, I am glad to have helped.
This is the most useful and easiest technique I have found after going through other videos showing too complicated techniques using pliers which also apparently had views in millions. In true sense, this video deserves more views.
Well thanks Dev, that's nice of you to say!
Brilliant. The best thing I’ve learned in years. Think of all the clothing and bags I’ve thrown away. 👍
Thank you so much! That was a super easy and well-timed explanation for how to fix it! I hope I remember for the next time I make that mistake :)
Thanks Rachel! There's always Google to find me again!
Thank you so much for this video 🥰
I second that! You are a LIFESAVER !!!
I thought I had ruined a couch cushion zipper!! After 30 seconds of your clear video it worked!😭 thank you so much it made all the difference!!
Thank you! My short was fixed because of this video!
Oh my word! Thank you thank you thank you! I was about to bash my head open because this happened to me with a pant alteration. I almost used my pliers to bend the slider open lol
Thank you so much Brenda!
Thank you!!! Tried for 45 minutes!! Had the zipper pull upside down! LOL Thought my project was doomed!
Thank you so much for this! Fixed my clothes storage
Thank you so much, I fixed my colleagues zipper and now I’m gonna go plead my case of getting a promotion! 🥳🥳🥳
You just saved my life! Thank you darling!
:)
Oh my goodness thank you so much on showing how to thread the zipper pull onto the zipper! My zipper to my purse broke so I had to find a way to fix it without replacing the zipper.
