We'll sew a basic zipper pouch with a side zip opening, create a lined pouch with a top zip, and learn techniques like boxing corners, straps, and more on a third pouch as time allows. Sewing with zippers is a great skill to have in your garment-sewing toolbox, and after this class you'll feel confident adding zippers to pillows, garments, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKILL LEVEL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Beginner to Confident (ages 16+)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a great project if you have taken our How to Sew class and would like a skill-building class.
