Very nice pouch bag. I need 2 sizes, smallish one & a good medium sized one. Great video tutorial. 😊

[@JanHowell]

Thank you! 🤗

[@andreawalker2535]

I bought your pattern because you demonstrate at least 3 details of construction that so far none of the many patterns I have purchased (or gotten free} include. Thanks!

[@JanHowell]

Awesome, thank you!

Cute! I may try this!

[@JanHowell]

[@patriciamcgarr3183]

Also great using leftover jelly roll or other precuts since they all match. I would use center strip as a row of 2.5 mini charm precuts as well. I think this would hold a kindle paper white e reader too.

[@JanHowell]

You can get them here. geni.us/SpMRL

[@AnitaSouthall]

[@LindaLNash]

[@JoannRostyne]

I missed the measurement of the lining . A fun pouch ❤

[@JanHowell]

It's 9 x 7 inches.

[@kittykat7187]

Finally, i got the answer.. Thank u for asking 🤗

[@BinsuPaskaG-Nanu]

Supper. Thank u.

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome

[@frankjanvari737]

hello another great video jan Howell 😊 whish you a happy Christmas holiday when you get a chance please kindly place on your video list film how to operate the sewing machine electric foot pedal please ok?please kindly let me know ok?thank you very much 😊 😊

[@JanHowell]

.

[@karenavey2183]

Jan, why do you not sew the zipper tabs into the seam allowance?

[@JanHowell]

It would add too much bulk in that area.

[@karenpack8111]

Hi Jan, I have a question, What is the measurement of the zipper tabs? Maybe I missed it but I think I cut them too big lol I'm trying to make it work?!

[@JanHowell]

The zipper tab piece is 3 x 2 inches. Then after sewing you'll cut that in half. I hope that helps.

[@karenpack8111]

Thank you!! Yes it helped tremendously!

❤

[@andreabell2284]

You keep saying plastic zipper teeth. Do you by chance mean nylon?

[@JanHowell]

Yes

[@donnabodah1750]

I see what happened. You kinda skipped the part where you attach the outside fabric to the other side of the zipper. Thank goodness I didn't need to take it apart.

[@JanHowell]

Some knits if they have a lot of cotton in them will definately need a ball point needle. Test a scrap piece if you are uncertain.

[@erlinepruitt3626]

❤️👍👍👍❤️👋👋👋❤️

[@JanHowell]

❤

[@donnabodah1750]

Jan something is wrong. You sewed the lining to the zipper in the first step. Then you show it with the 2 outside pieces sewed to the zipper and you attach the 2 lining pieces. I have sewed the lining to the zipper as you instructed. So now i need to either take it apart or figure out how to sew it correctly. Uggh!! Please edit this video. I love your videos but not if they are incorrect.

[@JanHowell]

glad you figured it out

[@NordicaTundra]

That'll mess me up too😅

[@FayeJohnson-y3y]

Thank you.

[@JanHowell]

You're welcome!
