      This is a very nice bag thank you for showing me. But the zippers do not turn out without a zipper tab for me. Maybe you can help me thank you so much.

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  2 года назад +1

      @@fransmith2158 I’ve never been a fan of the zipper tabs. Especially for a coin pouch. They make the opening so much smaller. It took me lots of practice to get my zippers to look nice. I’m not sure if I do anything special. When I trim my zipper ends, before turning the bag right side out, I make sure they’re even with the seam allowance or about a 1/4” longer. Before I sew the lining closed I put a finger inside the bag and make sure I “pop” the end of the zipper up. I find that stops the dip in the corners. I double or triple sew over the zipper ends when sewing the pouch together. That ensures that I’m not going to pop the end of the zipper out when I’m pushing up the corners. I hope that helps.

      Thank you! In this video I used a medium weight Pellon interfacing. I was buying It at Joann’s and It said medium weight interfacing on the bolt end. Many bag makers like SF 101 but It is a higher priced interfacing. Since this video I have switched to Pellon fusible fleece. It’s still thin enough to work with and helps the coin pouch to hold its shape. I have several other zipper pouch videos and many use the fusible fleece if you’d like to see It being used.

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  4 года назад +2

      Thank you. I prefer my zippers to be about 2” longer than my pouch. That way I don’t have to struggle. A simple pouch like these aren’t difficult with a zipper the exact size but I like to avoid the stoppers at the ends. As long as you use a nylon zipper you can easily trim to size.
      Think about what that person may use the pouch for. If you make them 7” long you can make them deeper if they want a cosmetic bag or not so deep for pens and pencils. My favorite size to cut my fabric is 7.5” wide by 6” deep. I hope that helps.

      Linda Albert Are you adding those tabs to the ends? I’ve tried that and I can’t seem to get them to work for me. It’s a math thing I’m guessing. 🤷‍♀️

    Looks great, what is your stitch length?

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  3 года назад +1

      Thank you. During this video I believe I used a 3.0 stitch length maybe but I’ve since dropped down to a 2.0 stitch length. I prefer the tighter stitches for strength and durability. Many videos will recommend between a 2.0 and a 3.0. I think It also depends on your preference and sewing machine.

    Nice tutorial Robin....could you tell me where you buy your zippers? I know that you have told us before but I can't quite make it out. (On Etsy) Thanks!

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  4 года назад +2

      I buy my zippers from ZipIt on Etsy. I haven’t looked recently but they were only taking orders one or two days a week a couple of months ago due to the virus rules etc.

  • @francinadoxen5080

    I would like to add a side tab with a key ring…at what stage and when would you add this…? Thank you…

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  Год назад +1

      I like to add the tab for a key ring after I’ve sewn the zipper onto both outer pieces. That way I know the tab won’t be in my way when sewing the zipper and I place the tab properly.

    Hi ya Robin, I'm wondering is you did a tute on actually making these. They are cute! I'm just relearning to SW after a brain injury and I need those visuals to make the connection in the ol factory on top lolololol
    Hold that thought. Watching all the video before putting foot in mouth UGH! LOL Sooo 🤨O HAVE REALLY BIG FEET! 🤪🤪 THIS VIDEO IS PERFECT ROBIN! THANK YOU❣ Because I've been sewing I knew exactly what you ment at each step. And it reaffirmed me on what I knew to do and and reassured me what I thought to do..😁 Plus, you streamlined a couple details my teacher had missed and helped cut out a couple different steps.. WAHOOZA, PARTY TIME🎈🎉🎈🎉🎈 THANK YOU & I'LL BE BACK ..I need to watch and do so many times just to get something to make the connection(rebuild the muscle memory) so, THANK YOU AGAIN FOR BEING HERE X'S 😊

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  5 лет назад +3

      Phew! I was worried for a minute because I thought I went through each step in this video even though I didn’t show the actual sewing. I’m glad my thorough step by step process worked. So many of us need to see each step and see It over and over for It to sink in. I know I rewatch videos a couple times and then have it running as I’m sewing the project. I even rewatch my videos 😂. I know I tend to get chatty and give a ton of details but you really never know who needs that little tip. I’m not sure if congratulations is the right word but good for you for coming back to sewing after your brain injury. I can only imagine how much work you’re doing to get back to the things you love. If you ever need a specific video please let me know. I’m always looking for new ideas and I love to help others figure things out. Thanks!!!

      @@rsislandcrafts aww Thats Wonderful Thank you I'll definitely keep that in mind.. I'm sure I'll have a video idea sooner or later lol. Yes, it's been rough but the minute we give up.. it's , well, might as well be over! frustration, surprisingly very lil anger (that was only at the beginning. easy to be a lil miffed when you can't figure out why once again your body is not in alignment with your hopes & dreams} & more than anything prayer gets me through. Plus wonderful folks like you willing to help. again THANK YOU & LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING MORE OF YOUR POSTS X's

    Enjoyed the video however it was hard for me to get the zipper even on each end after I was done... I added two pockets on the inside for a drivers license and credit card thank you for your step-by-step instructions

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  3 года назад +1

      Inside pockets are very helpful. For me, the more zippers I’ve seen the better they look.

    How do you determine how much you charge for your different size pouches?

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  2 года назад +1

      Pricing is one of the hardest things about selling what you make. I start with 3x the cost of materials. Then I adjust based on techniques used. Did I do a lot of quilting? Did I add any embellishments? Simple pouches are quick to make but if I change things up and It takes longer to make a pouch then I adjust the price. You can also check Etsy to see how your prices compare to what others are charging. There are always ones that are priced way high. There will also be some that are priced so low you wonder if they’re even covering the cost of the fabric. Are your prices about in the middle? Some people price too low because they are sewing with scraps/leftover fabric or the fabric was given to them for free or bought on sale. I go with the full price of fabric if I were to replace It today. If you price low now because of free fabric what happens in 3 months when you have to buy more fabric and your prices are too low? You won’t cover your expenses. I hope that helps and doesn’t make It more confusing. Good luck!

    Cool I haven’t tried zippers

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  7 лет назад

      I won't lie and say they are always easy but they aren't too hard. The trick is using a longer zipper than you think you need and sewing slowly.

    Can I make this with one solid piece of quilted fabric, and can you show how to do that? Very informative, and easy instuctions. Thank you.

    • @rsislandcrafts
      @rsislandcrafts  5 лет назад +2

      beeman4266 Yea, you can make It with a solid piece of quilted fabric but with these smaller pouches It can be a bit fiddly. Yes, I can add It to my to be recorded list. Thank you!
