Another great tutorial! You’re a great teacher.😊

[lorainejones]

Thanks for another great idea! You’ve given me another way to install a pocket.

Love this pocket....changed it a bit....after completing the
Pocket but before turning the edge under i put a piece of fabric, right side up over front of pocket. Stitched all the way around(but make sure your zipper is open) turn and you have a matching lining on the pocket as well as easy edges to topstitch to project

Thank you Christine! Very practical and useful video.

Oh that’s perfect, Christine. I believe I can do it too, so that’s good 😅. Felt like I got my 15 seconds of fame when I heard my name at the end 😂.
I do have another question…what is it that you are using for the straps? Is it the same kind of webbing as you use for the bags? I’m not sure because it looks softer. Could you use the same fabric folded and stitched? Making sure I have options with what I have in. You’re a star Christine 🌟. Thank you so much for all you do 🥰🙏🥰

[giovannacasadio]

Well explained, exactly how I would make it 👏. I wish you a great weekend. 😊

My question to yo is can you use a regular zipper as a continue zipper. When using a zipper on a bag or pocket.

😂you just know I’m going to make a doggy related comment, but hey😊
If I end up making an apron for my markets this will be a must have, to stop treats falling out or noses ducking into the pockets every time I bend down to say hi to my 4 legged customers!💜🐾💜🐾🥰

Reviewing your latests videos. Been awhile since I checked on them. Long year, lots of personal life. This one I need to know. I have been doing them like the push through zipper kind I do on linings. But making things from jeans this would work better in some cases!

[Nicki]

Love the video Would just like to ask do you have a video showing how to put an invisible zip in maybe a skirt or dress please

If so could you comment with the link to it as I have never done one before

Thank you in advance x

[debbiehall]

[lesleygilbert]

Nice finish - good idea for the double-sided tape 🤩

[retroredo]

Both of the taping ideas are great help!
