🧵Easy Zipper Pouch (Beginner Friendly Sewing Pattern!)

[@RebeccaWroblewski]

I just want to say that this tutorial is what EVERY tutorial should be like!!! I have been sewing for over 50 years, but as an adult with ADD I need clear, concise instructions. I've seen so many videos lately that have important steps left off! The videos sometimes have music only, with no verbal instructions. I have a very hard time following those!! Thank you SOOOOO much for sharing this video with everyone! It's perfect!!!!!

[@ninamills9427]

I had already cut material for a zipper pouch from another tutorial I could not get back to. This tutorial was a huge help and I finished this project t in a short amount of time! Your zipper tab instruction was the missing link in my past projects!!! Now I want to do the boxed corners and plan on using your tutorials in the future. Thank you so much!

[@silvakazandjian9982]

Your method of making a zipper pouch is the easiest way between all of the pouch makers. Thank you.

[@thewaldens90]

Thank you for showing the zipper being inserted without a zipper foot! I will usually skip trying any tutorial that requires a zipper foot. This is cute and fast and I'm going to try it.

[@minisaez2]

thank you for a very straightforward and beautiful zipper pouch exactly what I was looking for!

[@wildiris229]

Commenting to say I have a minor learning disorder and your video is among the few I could follow very easily without frustration. Thank you for the clear, well lit, well communicated, concise instructions! And no blocking the view with your hands, which happens a lot in other videos and is very frustrating when trying to learn. 🎉

[@erica_arndt]

So glad you liked it!

[@alicecoffey1823]

I did it! This is my first ever zipper. I'm so proud of myself even though it's not perfect. Thank you for the tutorial.

[@bmcclosk2]

Thank you so much!! I’ve always been intimidated by zippers. It was a perfect tutorial!! Can’t wait to sew some pouches for Christmas presents!

[@yvonnewigley4474]

I did it, I actually did it!! You are an inspiration! Thank you for all your tutorials.😃

[@Maintain_Decorum]

I know the feeling!! I’m a grandma, but I’m proud of myself for what amounts to a sixth grade home ec project!! 🤣. But it’s a start!!

[@leticiamariayoshitoni3120]

I just tried it out, and it worked so well! I hand-saw it using the back stitch since I don't have a sewing machine, and the result was great even with that! Thank you so much for sharing your tutorial, Erica! Lots of love from Brazil!

[@NisreenJaroudi-webber]

Thankyou sooo much. Complete beginner here and I just followed this and made it in a short time and feel proud of myself now. I'm making them for teacher gifts, so now for the next two!

[@cherylschultz3220]

Wow! This is the best zipper pouch tutorial! Such clear and detailed instructions! Now I'm sure I can make one. Thank you for sharing this.

[@meherpavri]

Cannot thank you enough for this video! You are such a great teacher! I'm a beginner sewer here, and this tutorial was the best! Easy to follow and I love my new pouch! Thanks for making my day!

[@LesleyMorris-t9f]

Thank you for making this an easy-to-follow tutorial, very simple is exactly what I was looking for!!!

[@angelastoutenger7944]

Thanks for the tutorial Erica. Very cute zipper pouch. I’m always looking for extra little projects to gift the granddaughters. This is perfect. See you next time.

[@AlannahHamilton-og1vc]

I’m here in 2024 thank you for this tutorial. I couldn’t have done it without his tutorial. It turned out great and I’m a beginner.

[@ninamills9427]

Me too!!! Ditto!

[@MugooChick]

Oh my goodness. I just made this bag. Easiest bag ever. You did a wonderful tutorial on how to make it. Thank you so much. So easy they could be last minute gifts to whip up

[@erica_arndt]

Thanks so much!

[@Gammosiur]

Made this today for my 11 yo nephew. Great tutorial. Easy to follow.

[@donnafuller9329]

Thank you for sharing your video. I get frustrated when i see a video of something that i might want to make but when i click on it its music and no verbal instructions. I dont even watch them. Thank you for you going the extra mile to make sure your listeners understand how to do your projects. The instructions are simple. I believe i can actually make it!!! Cant wait to watch more!!!!

[@ruthhurley800]

Very nice. Love the fabric. The only thing I would add would be top stitching each side of the zipper to prevent possible catching the zipper in the lining.

[@princesscharlott1983]

Never seen one of these before but have studied your video and feel like I can crack on with it now - thank you! So clear and precise with good video editing to guide learners. Thank you!

[@peggyl8210]

Thanks Erica, all your projects are awesome & you're a great teacher ❤

[@beadmomma4]

Erica, I have learned so much from your tutorials and have made many gifts for family and now I've just made my first zipper item. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world. Many blessings to you.

[@maureenstolz5292]

[@robertmorrison3420]

Well, I have to say finally after watching many videos I found yours very clear and understanding. I will be trying my first pouch watching your video. Excellent job on your video.

[@rachelwisehart3188]

I love this tutorial so much. ❤ I’ve come back to it several times to make cute little zipper bags. I was so intimidated to sew with zippers and you made it so easy!! Thank you!!!

[@helenpeddycord2241]

Just the cutest pouch! I’m loving Poppie Cotton fabrics! Thanks for this easy and very handy zipper pouch Erica!💕🧵

[@ToriWyatt-u8q]

Thank you so much!! Your video is really easy to follow and understand. I’m newer to sewing and it turned out great! It makes me feel empowered to try more projects:) thanks for being so kind too!

[@kimpiercy101]

The quilt on the wall is beautiful.

[@kathypatterson9906]

thank you for such clear and concise instructions. You make everything easy to understand. I love your patterns too. I have made several of them.

[@maplelassuk]

A lovely pouch! I made loads of pouches but don't like the bumpy or bulky dents at the side seam corners of the zips some methods leave. This is super easy, and I'm away to let my young learners watch this to have a go at making one! Thank you Erica x

[@lauriedoyle5491]

Thank you Erica! That bag is just adorable….can’t wait to make it! So quick and easy, too.💕

[@klwcatlover]

This looks so simple. I have some cute zipper pulls that I can use on these pouches

[@starbrown1219]

Very cute. I like the wider tabs.

[@TheHas700]

Wow!! This looks so easy! I would like to make a larger pouch for my purse to insert makeup!

[@lcarlson7]

I really like the finished look of the fabric tabs on the ends of the zipper. Thank you ❤

[@quiltcavequilter6952]

Love your tutorials even though I’ve made several zipper pouches. And those bloopers at the ends of your videos are the cutest. Love everything Erica Made 🤩😎🌷

[@robyncarpenter]

So afraid to do zippers. You made it look easy. Thank you for sharing ! ❤

[@patriciamcgarr3183]

I like to top stitch around tabs and zipper. Also add label tag (baste to raw edge) before finishing. Love the fabric

[@ColorWithHeather]

Oh thank you so much! I have a cute idea for a knitting project back and matching pouch and the zippers have been so intimidating to me. This gives me the confidence to try it again ❤ thank you so much! I know what I'll be doing this holiday weekend haha 🎉

[@desireekagan1885]

🎉thank you so much. That was way less scary than the other videos. I am seriously going to make one right now.

[@desireekagan1885]

I did it. It's adorable. Zipper pouches for everyone!!!!

[@cynditownsend9676]

Super cute bag🪡🧵🌸

[@shellymartinez7806]

I made 5 for my grandchildren I have 3 more to make

[@terryvanderpeet8524]

Hi Erica Thank you for a great tutorial. However I have a problem and I dont know how to resolve it. At the point when you take the 2 outer sides together on the right and the 2 lining pieces on the left in order to sew all around to close the bag, the pieces dont lie flat like yours. I have the zip that stands up like a tent, and there is no way that I can sew around the bag to close it. In your video, you gloss over this part of the instructions and I just can't work out what is wrong. But I definitely can't sew around the bag. Any suggestions please?

[@KneppwoodatHome]

Such a cute bag!! Love the fabric ❤

[@barbaraamos385]

Thanks, very easy, great site, hello from Australia

[@bethdeck9825]

I DID IT !!! Thank you so very much❤❤❤ I’m looking at all your bag patterns. Any help for a super beginner in bag making? Thanks you for sharing !
