In this class we will make a simple yet highly versatile zippered bag out of upcycled vinyl materials. This bag style is known as a Dopp kit, boxy bag, toiletry kit, or just zipper pouch. Making this bag you will learn how to install and top stitch a zipper, insert a handle and zipper tabs, and bind interior seams. Additional examples of how to adapt this simple pattern to different bag dimensions and bag types will be provided during the class. This is a beginner class, basic familiarity of sewing machine use is needed such as sewing straight stitches, back stitching, and adjusting stitches. The other techniques needed in this class will be taught. All materials and sewing machines will be provided.
