    You are the only one that thoroughly explains how to attach the second half. You explain piece by piece. NOT just do it the same on the other side. I finally am able to make it correctly. Thank you for your video.

    • @asewinglife

    • @PYates-ft5cy

      thank you. Thinking i will attache zipper then insert ric rac on sides for closing the pouch@@asewinglife

    • @asewinglife
      @asewinglife  3 месяца назад +1

      Or what you could do is attach it before you sew the main and the lining together. If you place it inside the seam. That might make it easier to sew?

    • @PYates-ft5cy
      @PYates-ft5cy 3 месяца назад

      Thank you! would u suggest I attach zipper, then ric rac, then closing?@@asewinglife

    • @asewinglife
      @asewinglife  3 месяца назад

      Hmmmm….I think if I were doing it I would attach the rac rac all around the edges before sewing the zip on or doing anything else. Almost so that the ric rac becomes part of the fabric …you’ll need to place it in the right position so it doesn’t get caught up in any of the seams. Does that make sense? I’d love to see what it looks like. I don’t think you can post photos here but my Instagram account is @asewinglife or my email is lisa@asewinglife.com
      I’m excited to see it 😀

    Hi Lisa, can you say which interfacing you used please? Sorry couldn’t see it mentioned in your notes

    • @asewinglife
      @asewinglife  4 месяца назад

      Hi, yes I used a medium weight fused interfacing. It should be fine with whatever you have to hand though. As it’s so small, you can use leftovers from previous projects 😀
