After sewing the Snoopy Handphone Pouch, I quickly embarked on my 3rd project. The first step was to cut the fabric according to the dimensions in the tutorial. I realised that the easiest way to cut a straight piece of cloth is to fold them and then snip it. Learn from the experts - that's the way all the fabric shops cut the fabric.
The first sewing for this pouch was to do the zipper which requires a different sewing machine foot - one that's used for zipper. It took a few experimenting with pins and a YouTube video to finally pin the zipper correctly, ready for sewing.
I didn't know it was so challenging to sew a straight line following the "teeth" of the zipper. It took me at least 5 times of unpicking to get it somehow right but not perfect.
Here's the finished product:

Kudos to you gal! I have been wanting to sew a zipper for ages. This looks very professional!
Hehe thanks babe! Haa but I will try non-zipper related projects for now.. ;)
I tot this is very well done for your 1st zipper challenge ! The cloth was sewn very near to the zip, so the zip's very well hidden.. great job babe ! ^_^
Thanks babe! It's really challenging but the result is satisfying. =)
