My first interior zippered pocket



I finally took the opportunity to try my hand at inserting a zippered, interior pocket into a handbag.  Finally.  Really, I'm surprised it took me this long!



Actually, it wasn't too hard!  A few months ago,  I skimmed a tutorial with good visuals for doing this and it helped the concept to "click" for me.   Only I couldn't locate that tutorial when I got started on this project, so I was working from memory on this.

Have YOU tackled this yet?



Here's the cute custom tween bag that got this zippered pocket...
