I joined Craftsy some time ago and purchased Joan Hawley’s class on “Zip it up” zipper techniques.    This has to be the easiest zipper I have ever put in.    I made this little “Runaround” bag to add to the tote for daughter’s birthday today.    She loved both bags.   Let me explain how being in a hurry helped – NOT!

First, because I watched the video awhile back, I didn’t bother to read the instructions or re-watch the video – that was the beginning of my hurry.    So I put the zipper on-inside out, took it out, and started over.   Glanced at instructions and put all the pieces together.   then I sewed the strap to the inside, fixed that.   Now, the outside back pocket is in the inside.    And I knew better, but being in a hurry, I didn’t think.    I just told her that I put a pocket inside.     So much for a hurry.    Please tell me you do things like this as well.      I love reading your comments,which  make me think we’re having a conversation.
