How to Sew a Zipper Pouch: A Beginner's Guide

Before you begin, gather the following materials:[list][*]Main fabric and lining fabric[*]Zipper (depending on your chosen pouch size)[*]Scissors[*]Marking pen[*]Basic sewing supplies (sewing machine, thread, pins, ruler, etc.)[/list]

Step 1: Print and Assemble the Pattern[list][*]The zipper bag pattern should be printed, cut to the necessary dimensions, and taped together. Ensure Adobe Reader is running on your computer, then choose the appropriate size and orientation (landscape or portrait).[*]Before printing the full pattern or just the necessary size, think about printing a test page to ensure your printer's settings are correct.[/list]

Step 2: Cut Pattern Pieces[list][*]Using the pattern, cut two pieces from the main fabric (outer) and two pieces from the lining fabric to create four pieces.[*]Apply interfacing to the main fabric if desired for additional strength and structure. Follow the manufacturer's directions.[/list]

Step 3: Attach the Main/Outside Fabric to the Zipper[list][*]With right sides together, align the zipper with the top edge of one piece of the main fabric and secure it with pins.[*]Ensure your presser foot's edge follows the zipper teeth as you sew the zipper to the main cloth. A standard zigzag foot can be used with the needle in the left position. Keep the needle down as you sew through the zipper pull, swivel it to the opposite side, and keep sewing.[*]The two main fabric pieces should line up along the sides and repeat the procedure on the opposite side of the zipper. [/list]

Step 4: Topstitch the Zipper Pouch[list][*]Topstitching, albeit optional, gives a more polished appearance. Sew a topstitch about 1/8 inch away from the zipper on both sides. When you get to the zipper pull, ensure the needle is down, then slip it across to the opposite side.[/list]

Step 5: Attach the Lining[list][*]Align the lining's edge with the top edge of the zipper while placing the main fabric pieces right side up.[*]Ensure the sides line up, and sew the lining to the zipper.[*]To ensure all lining pieces have their right sides together, flip the pouch over and sew the second lining piece to the other side of the zipper.[/list]

Step 6: Sew the Sides of the Zipper Pouch[list][*]The fabric should be folded with the zipper open while the right sides of the main and lining pieces should be facing each other.[*]Use a 1/2 inch seam allowance to sew all layers, the bottom edge of the main fabric, and the sides together. Leave the pouch's notched corners unclosed and the lining's 2.5-inch opening so that it can be turned inside-out.[*]Sew around the pouch, leaving a 2.5-inch opening in the lining if you're constructing the flat version.[/list]

Step 7: Box the Corners

To create a triangle:[list][*]Align the corner seams in the open bottom of the pouch.[*]Trim the seam after sewing it with a half-inch seam allowance.[*]For the other three corners, repeat this procedure.[/list]

Use a pencil or other turning instrument to carefully press out the edges after turning the pouch's right side out. The bottom of the lining is sealed by pressing the seams and sewing it shut.
