Illustration #1

8Ñ Fabric A

6Ñ 8Ñ x 6Ñ

Here is what you need for this zippered wristlet. The ribbon for the handle is not

shown. Instead of ribbon, I used a piece of left over vinyl trim.

Illustration #2

1. Place the RIGHT side of your trim at the bottom of the RIGHT side of one

section of the main bag body.

Illustration #3

RIGHT side of Fabric A is face up

Trim is FACE DOWN (RIGHT sides of

Fabric A is facing RIGHT side of trim)

Sew along bottom

2. Sew along the bottom, attaching one of the main body bag sections to the trim

with a ďÑ seam (This equals about the width of your sewing foot).

3. Follow the above directions and sew the second section of your main body bag.

Illustration #4 - Sewing on the trim

4. Press the trim down.

Illustration #5 - Here is what it looks like with the trim pressed down on both pieces

of the main body bag of your wristlet.

4. Place the RIGHT side of the zipper (have it hang evenly over both edges of your

main body bag) facing the RIGHT side of one section of your main body bag.

5. Pin in place with your pins along the bottom of the zipper.

Illustration #6 - The top of your zipper will be even with the top of your bag.

(pin placement)

Pin your zipper on the lower half so that

the pins wonÓt be in the way when you

sew the zipper on.

6. Place one fabric panel of the lining (Fabric B) FACE DOWN even with the top.

You will now have a sandwich of (from bottom to top) 1 panel of the main body

bag face up, your zipper face down, and 1 panel of your lining face down.

Illustration #7 - Sewing one panel of the lining to the zipper and one panel of your

main body bag.

7. Use your zipper foot and sew the lining, the zipper, and one panel of the main

body bag together with about ĐÑ seam (this translates to about half of the zipper

tape width). Make sure all 3 layers are sewn together properly.

8. Flip the lining over - the WRONG side of your lining will now be facing the

WRONG side of your body bag.

Illustration #8 - The lining is flipped over to the back.

9. Press down the main body of your bag where it attaches to the zipper.

10. Top stitch through all 3 layers (from top to bottom - main body of bag, zipper,

lining).

11. Take the second panel of your main body bag and have it FACE UP.

12. Put the section of the bag that you just sewed (the one with the zipper) FACE

DOWN and even with the top edge of your bag.

13. Pin the zipper to this unsewn panel of your main body bag. (Make sure the pins

will not be in the way of your stitches when you sew all these bag parts together!)

14. Place your last piece of lining FACE DOWN and even with the top.

Illustration #9 - Here is the order of your ÐsandwichÑ from top to bottom - unsewn

lining on top (face down), lining sewn to zipper (face up), zipper (face down with the

zipper pull on the right), and the unsewn second panel of the main section of your

wristlet.

15. Sew all of these layers together with a ĐÑ seam allowance - use your zipper foot.

16. Open up your bag and iron the zipper and all the sewn pieces flap.

Illustration #10 - This is what your bag looks like opened up. The lining is on the

other side and is not visible in this photo. Iron the fabric around the zipper down.

17. Open up your zipper halfway.

18. Trim the zipper even with the sides of your bag.

19. Fold over the 2 pieces of your main body bag and pin the side seams.

20. Do the same for the lining pieces.
