Is there a good technique for repairing a zipper that is ripping apart from the lining? About 4 inches have torn away from the fabric and I really don't want to replace the whole zipper because it will disrupt the appearance of the coat. I'm wondering if I should just stitch the still-attached part more solidly to the fabric to prevent further ripping, or if I can get enough of the remaining fabric on the zipper re-attached to the fabric.
(apologies for any lack of etiquette here, first time posting in Arts & Crafts!)
