Even if the sewing machine *is* threaded properly, and even if it *does* have the appropriate foot on it (I'm finally using my zipper foot!), the user still must line the fabric up with the right sides together and *also* not rotate the piece by 180° so it doesn't line up-- good thing I have a seam ripper. And I'd sewn that zipper in so well, too.
What if I take a break for dinner, a drink, and Thursday Night Football... and try this again tomorrow?
