Sewing Zipper Pouch Workshop
If sewing isn’t your thing, mama, then this workshop is perfect for you! Once you learn that horror provoking task of inserting a zipper, your sewing takes on a whole new dimension. It’s not as hard as you think and once you’ve learnt how you will want to put zippers in everything! This workshop teaches absolute beginners how to make a lined zipper pouch that has a thousand and one uses around the home, not to mention school and work too (hmm, we wonder what unusual use you will come up with!).
