Zippy Bag #2

 

Finished Zippy Bag

     A few years ago I made my daughter a Zippy Bag to use when she is teaching.  That one wore out but the hardware was still okay.  She asked for another one so I carefully took apart the old one and saved all the hardware and zippers.

     This one I made from a canvas fabric so hopefully it will last longer.  Because the zippers had already been cut to size, I had to carefully stitch the coils together on the ends so they wouldn't separate while sewing the bag together.  I had a deep green canvas in my stash, good for not showing stains.  I then used Packers fabric for the lining as she is a Green Bay Packer fan like me.

     I was glad I had saved the labels for the cut pieces from the last time I made it.  They came in handy to keep track of the pieces as I cut them.  It came together easily, I just had to be careful with the zippers.
