Hello and welcome to day 3 of the Ollie Bomber Jacket Sew Along! Today we are tackling the zipper! I know this is intimidating for a lot of people, but you so got this!

Note** Whether you are making a collared version or hooded, the construction is the same! Make sure you watch the video that corresponds to either the lined or unlined option, since the construction between those are different. <3 Binding is only for the unlind version!
