1/27/23: I followed your instructions to the letter today and it was so easy. Now I won't be intimidated by it going forward in other projects that require a zipper pocket. In fact, I think every tote bag or purse I make will have a zipper pocket. Talk about going zipper crazy...LOL! Thank you for sharing this technique. It was fun. 😃
This was incredibly helpful and I have successfully done this four times to date. I wish I had you 25 years ago when I started playing around with sewing!! Thank you for sharing your talent!
Thank you for sharing your videos! I watched this one over and over and still had to watch yours, along with another one, WHILE I WAS ACTUALLY DOING IT to actually get it. I still ended up making one of my lining pieces (the one no one would ever see) wrong side out as I was watching he video for the bag with the all white lining so it didn't matter. LOL! But I love how my zippers turned out! My first try! I am saving this one so I can actually see the right and wrong side of my pocket. I made my bag like yours, with fashion fabric for the pocket lining as I thought I had some left over.
FINALLY! Someone who can sew a straight line! The last 3 videos I've watched have been horrid. I am OCD with detail and really like how you are paying attention to the little bits.
Hi Deby, thank you so much for the tutorial. I am a beginner sewer and I am making or trying to make a bucket bag with a vertical zipper in the front. Keeping my fingers crossed thank you...
Thank you! This is really clear and wonderful. WHAT SCISSORS ARE YOU USING? sorry to shout, but they seem fantastic! and i need new ones anyway. Love to get something that works as well as these do.
Isn't it funny how we tend to get all OCD over our craft stuff, such as lining up stripes even though it'll be hidden behind a zip? I do it too, and I'm FAR from being a true OCD sufferer....hoarding yes, but not OCD.

I enjoy watching this over and over. Thank you for teaching it in a simple way I can catch on. Will try today with a Crossbody purse. Thank you again.

Are you using a Zipper Foot on the sewing machine or just a regular one?
+Lizzie Biset Yes, I'm using my zipper foot. I use an adjustable one like this one so I can control easily how close I sew. amzn.to/1NUqfCS
Amazing thanks!
ありがとうございました。
Thank you so much!!
I use lining in my bags. Looks here like the interfacing is attached to the outer bag am I correct?
+Cathy Fijalkovic I see...your fabric has a white back to it.
You can add a piece of fusible Pellon SF101 Shap-Flex (it's woven and very thin) which will give the area a lot more support.
Thanks for the tutorial!
+Molly Lenore You are welcome!
thank you so much for your helpfull vídeo. I am a begginer, and this was great :3
I center the zip in the opening so the metal ends do not show at either end.
thank you so much! i got it perfectly!
I can do this! Thanks so much!

I just can't help it! Only an elf inside the pocket could check it out, but still - if a job is worth doing, best to do it right.
