How to Sew a Lined Zipper bag - Easy Zipper bag FREE Tutorial - Fast Zipper Pouch, Easy Zipper Purse

[@76-mom]

Thank you. You have a very nice voice to listen to. I can't listen to others that have a high pitch voice. Thank you again from a 74 year old

[@SookieSews]

Thank you so much :) made my day!

[@crystalbennett1069]

I’ve been sewing things for years on an as-needed basis, but have always avoided anything with zippers because I didn’t fully understand how to sew them. I’ve watched other instructional videos and still got lost. Yours was the only one I’ve seen that actually makes me want to sew something with a zipper! Thank you so much for your excellent descriptions. 😊

[@SookieSews]

Thanks for stopping by and saying something nice. I’m so glad it has helped.

[@eleanorcostello644]

you need to get an award for you presentation!!! BEST one on you-tube by far. your voice is sooo NOT annoying, you are beautiful!!!

[@kathleenwells6636]

A most excellent tutorial! You speak clearly and slowly enough! Your volume is perfect! You are thorough with all information needed to complete the project! I have no questions after watching your tutorial one time! Bravo!!!

[@SookieSews]

That’s so nice to hear!! I’ve got many tutorials and more to come. Please consider subscribing

[@helenforsythe7162]

I really like your method. I've seen others make the same type bag and they are way too technical. THANK YOU for showing a very easy tutorial.

[@SookieSews]

You are so welcome!

[@rubydehaas8753]

I just love the way you speak so perfectly and clearly explaining every step. Thanks .

[@SookieSews]

Thank you!! I do try my best. I’m planning to make another zipper bag in the next few weeks! So stay tuned and be sure to subscribe if you have not already.

[@carolsiems8650]

Thank you so much for such clear instructions. I too, like many others have been avoiding zippers for ever. Now I think I can do it.

I’ve been sewing things for years. I have a really nice Bernina, but it has been in the closet for years. I really need to " re familiarize" myself with the machine. ololol I did make a few items with a zipper but that was YEARS ago. I need a refresher course & I’ve watched other instructional videos and still got lost because they sped up the video. Yours was the only one I’ve seen that actually makes me want to watch all the way through. I wanted to make a whole bag for a trip that I am taking and a nice one for my son's wedding in April. I have time over the holidays since I will be home & I am going to do yours first & follow the step by step instructions. Thank you so much for your excellent descriptions

[@SookieSews]

You are so very welcome! It’s always nice to have a goal and “due date” for a project. It will help you stay on track. Please share a photo when you finish it!!

Thank you for a great video -- clear, well organized, easy to follow. For a few years (since I first viewed this) I've made dozens and dozens of bags. Watching the video again, I discovered forgotten the tip about using clips rather than pins and a few other fine points. It is time for me to reclaim those fine points, including ironing at various steps.

[@SookieSews]

Thanks for the kind words and glad you enjoyed

[@tonyareichard7582]

I like the ends added to the zipper....makes insertion so much easier! Thank you

[@gordonrussell7165]

Well as a beginner I did encounter numerous difficulties along the way but afteer about 6 tries I finally came up witth a fairly decent pouch. Will certainly make a few more and refine my efforts.

[@SookieSews]

I love that you press between every step. I learned early on what an enormous difference it makes. But I must admit, I've seen a couple of really good videos that were so great EXCEPT they didn't press anything, not even off screen. Patterns were cut on fabric still creased and best up off of the table by 2" in some places. Just a nightmare in my mind. Lol. Every time you said "give it a little press" (or something to that effect) my heart sang a little song! I think the iron is as important as the needle is in sewing. Soooooo thank you very kindly.
