I realized that I MUCH prefer invisible zippers. They come out sooo much nicer for me. Is there any reason that I shouldn't switch out the regular for an invisible? Would there be anything else I would need to do in this case (changing anything)?

TIA

I dunno, I used an invisible in place of a regular zipper which the pattern called for in Hannah's farmer's market dress and it came out great

I like them better also.
I don't think you'd have to change anything.

Good, cause I just bought one. Too bad they don't come in the same number of colors and lengths as regular zippers.
