In reply to David Myers. Hmm let me think on this one! I have mine shoved in an apothecary jar with no rhyme or reason! Let me do some research and see what I can find!

I would like ideas people have to organize zippers. I have order grab bags of assorted zippers and sorted them but have not figured out a good way to keep them separated. I basically have group them by a size range,example 7 ” and less, 8″ to 10″. 12 -14 and so on. I have tried safety pins, binder clips and rubber bands. Nothing allows you easy access

Hi Jennifer, thanks for watching! The seam ripper I use currently is this one (affiliate link) http://shrsl.com/juka. I am so glad you are able to watch! I am not much of an expert on piping but I will think about including a cross body bag! Thanks for the suggestions!

Could you do a bag or pouch with piping? Or a cross body bag/purse with straps? Also where do I get the new seam ripper?
I’m watching from Hilo HI. So not always live ! Your on at 5am! Really enjoying the videos. Iv’e made friends with zippers now and am comfortable using the zipper foot. I have had my currant machine for 22 years and had to look at the book to figure out how to use it!
Thank you
Jennifer

I live in St. Charles, outside of St. Louis. I appreciate you as a local person sharing your ideas. I enjoy zipper bags and like the idea of making them for children at the Ronald McDonalds house or the hospitals. Thank you

In reply to Theresa. I might have misspoke. When you are putting the tabs down start with the right sides facing and then you will move the fabric so the wrong side is facing the zipper and top-stitch in place.

In reply to Theresa. It is just for fun! No purpose but to look pretty. I wouldn't stick pins in it, I would recommend clips!

Is the cork ribbon fabric just for an interesting aspect or does it have a specific purpose? I have never seen that before. Can you actually stick pins in it??
