Tilda Zipper Bag Class
These lovely bags are so roomy that they are ideal for make-up or toiletries. They also look so smart that they make perfect gifts for men, women, and children. They are lined, have bound seams, and you can use so many features that are on any machine to quilt it and make it your own. Zippers are so easy with this pattern! Great project to learn some quilting, zipper installation and binding. You don't have to have quilting skills to make this!
We will make the large size only in class.

The pattern comes from Tilda and is different than many patterns as it has finished seams and can be a palette for embroidery or decorative stitches as well. You can use Tilda fabrics, but you can also piece scraps together or use many other fabrics.
If you need help picking fabric, we have many wonderful combinations in the store. Don't forget you get a 20% discount with taking the class. If you come before class, make sure to mention it when checking out.
