I have struggled with installing zipper tabbed zippers and this tutorial made a light bulb switch on - thank you so much! AND now I know how to sew with vinyl!

OMG I totally love your glitter vinyl . 😍

[@SewHungryHippie]

Thanks so much!

[@alicewilliams2701]

I'm going to make this pouch looks super easy with Natalie's great instructions! Has anyone added straps? I'm trying to figure out the best way to attach a shoulder strap!

[@SewHungryHippie]

You can do it! Maybe add D-ring attachments on the side seams and hook your strap into those.

[@alicewilliams2701]

@@SewHungryHippie Thank you Natalie!! This will work!

[@debbiewittmer3571]

[@SewHungryHippie]

[@kimberleeleach8975]

My shop gets cold in winter here in Oregon. I hang a heat light over my work station when working with upholstery vinyl

[@SewHungryHippie]

Brilliant!

[@bglluvr]

Yay!! Thank you! This was easy.

[@SewHungryHippie]

You're so welcome!

[@marilyn623]

It’s so cute! Since the top edge is a folded fabric and not a raw edge, could you just sew the zipper just under the folded edge and eliminate the flip and topstitching? I’ve got your starry vinyl so I just might make this today!

[@SewHungryHippie]

Try it and see if you like that outcome! :D

[@HodgePodgeHarmony]

I don't see measurements for the vinyl. Did I miss it on the video?

[@SewHungryHippie]

They are in the description box Vicki, click so you can see it all.

[@HodgePodgeHarmony]

@@SewHungryHippie I got it… I had scrolled down too far 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@EttieL3209]

before I turned the vinyl inside out, I blow dried it, and now there are cloudy looking parts on my clear vinyl! oops! what did I do wrong? Was the heat to intense? I had it on the hottest setting and touching the vinyl. I regret it so much! All this work and this mistake...

[@SewHungryHippie]

Never touch the vinyl with the blow dryer. It’s only about 10-20 seconds that’s needed. Eeeek! This tip is in my Seeing Vinyl guide on my website. Sewhungryhippie.com

[@maryjillponcin6780]

if you wanted to make it a purse, will it be simple?

[@SewHungryHippie]

Sure add D rings and a strap.

[@DeborahTanton]

A train just passed my house so when I heard the whistle I thought it was the same one!!!! Lol!!! It was weird tho because they never blow their whistle when they pass here!!!!

[@jilldavey4854]

What are measurements

[@SewHungryHippie]

They are in the description box.

[@bettymickel9011]
