Thank you! (added PIP)

I just wanted to thank those that helped with my sewing questions. Especially the link the article on tensions on a machine. I figured it out after 4 hours. I finished the project. I even used the laminated fabric and a zipper. For my second sewing project, I am pleased.

 

Thank you ladies!

  • You asked so here you go. Now this is my second sewing project. First time working with laminate fabric and first zipper ever (without a zipper foot or instructions..the tutorial does not have a closure on the bag). This is for my nieces lunch bag (15 years old, she saw my first one and wanted one).

    I love the inside..

    The zipper...

    On a different note, after taking these photos, I immediately washed the door. I had no idea it was so grimey..now it is clean..old but clean...

    Hope this works

  • Too adorable!  I love the fabric choices and I bet your niece will be thrilled! Great job on the zipper.  I had to tear my first zipper out more than once. :-)

  • Thanks! I am sure a real sew-er may find fault with my zipper but it is ok for a first attempt. It works and that is all that matters. On to the next project
