I like to say the difference between, "Where did you buy that?" and "Did you make that?" is an iron.

You give just the right amount of information and are so pleasant to listen to. I really enjoy your videos and watch them even if I never plan to make an item you're making. I always walk away knowing that if I wanted to, I could, with your instruction. Thanks a lot!!

Thank you. Very clear. And I'm happy that we don't have to ladder stitch the inside 😊. I bought hidden zippers in bulk, so will be modifying instructions a little bit.

Thanks for this! I've just gone through this tutorial again in order to make a new pouch for some tools I got at Christmas. If you feel like doing another one of these tutorials, but for the more box-like zipper pouches (the dop-kit / shaving kit style), I'd love to see it. The tutorials that I've found for the zipper-box -pouch thingies seem to all make them super-elaborate and more like origami-meets-quilting than the utility container I want to construct.

I love your videos! I've been trying to teach myself to sew and you are so helpful. My husband has been a Star Wars cosplayer for over twenty years and I hope to one day make him a costume.

I needed a refresher on zipper into outer and lining fabric on these but watched your entire video because you were great. Your decked out machine is fun and those shears are the bomb!

[Toebex]

That coffee cup fabric is so random and weird, I love it. Really good video man, Ill be sure to give this a go. One day zippers wont scare me anymore!

So glad you're back to a semi-regular posting schedule. Really enjoy how approachable you make sewing and garment making. Like the t-shirt too, See you space cowboy.

New subscriber here. This is a great tutorial. Your clear, concise and easy to follow instructions paired with your male voice is so refreshing. Thank you!

I have been watching a few videos of how to make this and attempted, each time I ended up with the zipper backwards. I watched your video and got it right an hour ago. Thank you do much for sharing this.

[michelejarrell]

I have watched 100 videos on bags. Your the one that showed me the best. Every step. I got it on the first try. Thank you. Keep them coming

[bondgirl]

I've recently discovered your channel as I'm trying to learn to sew and it's fantastic how well you explain things! It great info without hyperbole or artificial cheerfulness and I am here for it. Keep it coming!!

[derpyhuskyroo]

Love your videos they've helped me get into sewing, went from knowing nothing to tailoring my clothes and making fun pouches!

[rachaelnelson]

Thank you so much for showing the part of the zipper being folded down. I've watched so many videos and no one tells us this part. I think they think we should know, but being a newbie, I'm clueless.

Great to see you post again! Your messenger bag series is my favorite, I've made two of them with that same pattern and following your videos as a guide.
