Thank you for your tutorial on a zipper pocket. Mine looks perfect the first time around. I put it inside a tote where the outside was a scrap from an 1880's log cabin quilt. Thanks again!

I can't make my sewing machine to sew that slow, I press the pedal and it eat everything and I can't learn.

The explanation was very well done! Thank you

Sooooo long winded

This is the best I have ever seen on a zipper pocket. You put in extra professional things to do. Wonderful!!!!!!!!!

OMG! I just used this tutorial to make my 1st zippered pocket in the lining of a bag. THANK YOU for this clear tutorial. i am so excited and proud of myself.😊

Great zipper .

This video has made me feel confident that I can do this. Thx.

Thank you for such a clear tutorial! This is really helpful!

You just made this make so much sense :o thank youuu !!!!

Thank uuuuuuuuuu❤❤❤❤
I finally liked to sew zipper in my pocket😂 thank you so so much

Thank you

Just so perfect tutorial on the zipper pocket. Beautiful & showed very easy to follow step by step.❤ Thank you so mu h mam. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I always foul up on the zipper pocket at the end of the box but now I learn the perfect way.

The understitching is the genius tip on this tutorial! I've never managed to get a pocket so neat before - many thanks.

Thank you! Since a couple of years, I have a vision impairment, and I was dreading to make a pocket like this in my new jacket. But you have made it feasible for me. Thank you for that.

Thank you so much for this excellent, informative tutorial without talking on and on about a million other things.

Thank you!!! 😊

Excellent tutorial! Thank you

The only thing I don’t like about this method is that when you open the zipper, you’re gonna see the zipper tape. I was hoping you’d show how to hide it when sewing the pocket

Good instructions, looks easy to do.

Thanks I learned how to put pocket zipper on my bags God Bless.

Thanks!

Hi, I have two questions. Why understitch since sewing the zipper will catch both layers? And also, for a bag, we usually use thick fusible fleece to stiffen the main fabric so wouldn't it be too thick ? Should we leave a window without interfacing? Thank you very much!

Amazing tutorial! thank you for sharing!

Just the best, easiest to follow.

Absolutely 💯 the best pocket tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing ❤

This made so much sense, thank you for this tutorial 🙏🏾🔥

I have trouble with my ends bunching up! I cut the little triangles, stitch, and press as directed but they always come out lumpy. Can anyone advise me please? Thanks :)

This was great! However, I am stupid and finished with the interfacing as the lining….🤦🏼‍♀️ I shall just have to live with it !

This was a very well done tutorial. The close up shots as you sewed were clear and helpful. Thanks!

Brilliant. The understitching is the piece de resistance! Worked perfectly. Thank you. ❤

A perfect tutorialever so far on how to put a zipper pocket.Thank you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Great tutorial ❤❤❤

FANTASTIC explanation and video! Sooo many other videos meander around, taking forever to get to the point and/or leaving out crucial details, etc. This was really super helpful for an advanced beginner sewist like me.

Great video. I put a zippered pocket to my purse lining. Another video I watched said to make the box (that you draw) 1 inch larger on each side of the zipper length. It made my zipper opening way too large! Thankfully, I had another zipper to use. And you made your box the same size as your zipper. I will definitely do the under stitching next time I make my zippered pocket. I made sure to bookmark your video for the next time I make another zipper pocket! One question: How do you know how tall to draw this box for the opening? I have different size of zippers (#3, #5 etc)..

very good & very easy to follow. thank you so much for the tutorial.

This is my go-to video for pocket zippers. How do you stop the short sides of the pocket from bunching up? No matter how close I cut the triangle to the stitches, it always seems to bunch up when I push it through to the other side.

Neat! Although my zipper moved down ( need tape I think ) thanks

Thank you for this cool tutorial! It's so fun to add this extra touch to bags. I have a question - the first time I did it, no problems. But this time, the fabric is puckered around the zipper opening. I cannot figure out how to show picture. What did I do wrong?

Thank you! I love that you used contrasting fabric and thread to make it easier to see what's going on.
