Sew A Zipper On Jeans

"Got a favorite pair of jeans but they have a broken zipper? Easily repair them with this super simple sewing tutorial. Save money by breathing new life into pants that have a worn-out zipper. I have saved several pairs of my husband's jeans with this method. If you can sew through multiple layers, you can do this simple clothing repair. Great for all skill levels. You can get replacement zippers online or in your favorite sewing shop. I wish I would have known this years ago."
