Top Zippered Bags (6×10 hoops)

Description

This little zippered bag is a partial in the hoop project. The zipper is applied in the hoop and, if you have never done this before, you will be surprised at just how easy it is do so. The bag is geometrically quilted in the front and back; this is also accomplished in the hoop. The inside is lined and no seams are visible. Some straight line stitching on the sewing machine is required. This bag requires one hooping and then gets completed on the sewing machine.

You are receiving three versions of the bag: One with a round decorative label, another with a rectangular label, and one plain one. No font included with purchase.

If you have made zippered bags before – please put your previous experience aside and follow my instructions closely.

There may well be times during your making of this little bag when you wonder how this could possibly turn out right! But the design has been tested several times and always turns out fine – as you can see from the
actual stitchouts. So, if and when doubts arise, please just follow the instructions.
