thank you for taking the time to watch and I am glad you like the Tip :)
I love how you've done this and also giving measurements for the tabs, no one else seems to do this and as I'm a novice I need all the info I can get. My only query is the raw edge at the end of the tab if a space is left for sewing the side seams. Also do you have a tutorial for extending the tabs so they become 'pulls'. Hope this make sense. Thank you so much for your tutorial. Eva Norfolk.
The raw edge is stitched into the bag.
If you want to extend the tab to be a "pull", measure out the extra you need for the pull, plus 4 inches for the tab. Then stitch the tab on three sides on wrong side of fabric leaving the side open where you insert the Zipper. Make sure the opening of the tab is the same width of the Zipper. Now turn the tab inside out. Fold in the unsewn edge of the tab(tube) about half inch. Insert the Zipper about about half inch into the tab and stitch back and forth about an eighth of an inch from the edge. Ready to be inserted into your project.
👍👍thanks!
Thanks! Curious why you cut off the metal tabs though?
So you dont accidentally hit with the sewing machine needle when sewing the bag together..thanks for watching
Wonderful! Thank you!!
You are very welcome ❤ thanks for taking the time to watch and comment hun l appreciate you being here with us and joining in the fun 😊
Love the polished look of zipper tabs, but have trouble with getting everything lined up and stitched. Gets frustrating!!! I will definately try this with my next zipper install.
Cool!
Glad u liked it ❤ thanks for taking the time to watch and comment hun l appreciate you being here with us and joining in the fun with us ❤
It looks like you make up the zipper without knowing the size of the bag. I’m confused. Also, does the tab get into a seam?
Hi Nicole, i love your zipper tabs. Just one question, when making the flat bottom pouch, when I tuck the zipper tabs as you instruct and sew the pouch, they end up with tucks into the seam. What am I doin wrong? Thank you.
Smsrt and look amazing . I love fabric . Where i can buy stuff like this in UK?
If I can replicate this( I have looked at your follow up video too) you will have saved my bacon ! & I’m not going to tell you how many years I’ve been sewing - just never made a bag with a zip across the top ! Lol
Oh hun, guve it a go...just take it slow and one step at a time...❤ l know you can do it ❤❤❤
Darvanalee Designs Studio With Nicole Reed yes I will, but the hands are starting to stiffen up & the eyes don’t like dark fabric! Lol
@@gayneels5169 unfortunately l hear that a lot...😕
How do you measure the zip with pull tabs for the actual bag please? Fab idea and great video.
I have been asked to do another video showing the full construction...as this video was just the tabs...it is schedualled for the channel on the 20th Feb 2019...we are in the process of filming ....it will be just a basic pouch but will give clear instructions on how to measure and install 😊
@@darvanaleedesignsstudio Thank you for your tutorial, I can't find the video tutorial on how to measure the zip with pull tabs.
@@MyKim1967 l hope this helps ruclips.net/video/Vrx1JSvVx_U/видео.html
I am using a metal YKK zipper so I can't sew over top of it. Any advice?
I love the way you did that very neat. Can't wait to make it.Thank you for sharing.
muito boa a dica
obrigado
So how do you know what length to cut your zipper tape? How much shorter does your zipper tape have to be in relation to the width of your fabric?
Hi, I am assuming you are the Julie i was speaking to, on Facebook?
@@darvanaleedesignsstudio no I'm not. :) But will also check out your FB page.
Can you show us how you put the lining and outside together and sew across the zipper at the sides. With the top stitching along the the side of the zipper there is a lot of material at the sides and I am never sure which direction things should be folded.
Hi Larraine, thank you for subscribing to our channel...welcome to the DDs quilting and crafting family we are so glad you are here❤......l just had to check my schedual...l have a basic zipper pouch scheduled to go up in February...using this technique...😊
Hi Laraine, the Video that I promised is now ready for viewing :) :)
I hope this helps you :)
ruclips.net/video/Vrx1JSvVx_U/видео.html
Do the tabs add any length to the zipper?
Yes, they do and l can not remember how long it made it...but the tab and zip would measure the length of the top of the bag
@@darvanaleedesignsstudio that was my other question. Im confused on when it should be longer and when it should be shorter
Do you have a tutorial of zipper pouch that has straight edge's as opposed to curved edges on each side by the zipper.
Did you sew across the zipper tabs meaning are they included in the seam allowance or do I sew right on the edge pass the tab
Hi Amelia, here is a tutorial from start to finish for you on how to use the zipper tabs in a project I hope this helps...

Hey friend, where did you get the little doo hickey on the zip? Whats is called?
Hi Beth, that is a zipper charm and you can find them in our website
www.darvanaleedesignsstudio.com ...they under the tab zips and zipper charms ❤
Worked well...need to cut excess fabric off next time...forgot. Lol. But so easy otherwise...
Hi Jodi, here is a cute little pouch you might want to make using this method :)
Join us on FB at DDs Quilting and Crafting Group and show off your pouch
why don't you show how you are measuring for the zipper to begin with. if you have never put one in you would need to know what size to make the zipper to begin with.
I can't sew over zipper teeth😬
Lady can’t see with all the writing on secret???
Then taken the close captions off ...that isnon your settings not mine
