I always make my zipper (including the ends) a full inch shorter than the opening, that way I've got a 1/2" on each side when I put it in. When you sew the sides together, DO NOT sew over the zipper, just get as close to it as you can. If you don't catch the zipper in your seam, it'll lay pretty flat. I just finished up some small pouches this way & share them today if you'd like to see how they turned out.<br /><br /><a href="http://my-crafty-crap.blogspot.com/2011/05/wip-wednesday-15_25.html" rel="nofollow">http://my-crafty-crap.blogspot.com/2011/05/wip-wednesday-15_25.html</a>Breehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05187644809917082275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763948971179751076.post-82391837153573057562011-05-25T11:23:08.542-05:002011-05-25T11:23:08.542-05:00Ack, I need to give those clutches a try one of th...Ack, I need to give those clutches a try one of these days.
