Learn how to make a tote bag with a recessed zipper. This one is made to fit a Mahjong set but you can make it any size you want. Make a tote for yourself or as a gift. I made these for my Mahjong-loving relatives. You can also add interior and exterior zippers or more pockets to fit your needs.

I just want to thank you for EXPLAINING HOW to make this bag any other size!! This is such a tremendous help! I also wanted to add that I absolutely LOVE the way you installed this zipper. So much easier than a normal recessed zipper! I'm going to figure out my dimensions and make this bag.. Thanks so much!

The best pattern for a zip top tote I've found!

This was exactly what I needed to make a mahjong bag for my daughter in law. Thanks for the easy to follow instructions!

Thanks. Great tutorial. I watched last night and made a bag today using your dimensions. It fits my Siamese Mah Jongg racks and tiles but is a bit snug. I’m going to add an inch to the width, two inches to the height and 1/2 inch to the gussets to make bags for a standard Mah Jongg sets which have wider racks. Now I know what I’m giving my Mah Jongg friends for Christmas.

Thank you so much! I finally mastered the recessed zipper 🙌

Sew (so!!) glad I found this tutorial! I have the cutest cotton sheets that I bought for another sewing project but the pattern repeat was too large but they would make the cutest beach bags. I have sewn bags without top zippers but I really wanted a zippered top - can't wait to do these!! Perfect for summer!!!

this is perfect! i've been looking for a good set of instructions for bags to carry around my bigger knitting projects, and this is the best one so far.

It s the easiest recessed zipper installation I ve ever seen!thankyou for this!

[@pamketron]

I love the way this bag looks. Great detailed instructions. I’ve been making bags for a long time and this is the first time I’ve seen a zipper installed to the lining and a top piece added. I really love how this looks. In the process of starting a new bag and came across your video. Going to try adding my zipper this way. So neat and finished looking. New subscriber to your channel. Can’t wait to see what other projects you have shared. Thank You!
