Lenee Alexander: How to Make a Zipper Coin Purse (17 short videos)

  1. Start by cutting fabric pieces for the outside and lining of the purse. The outside is 7 1/2 by 12 inches, and the lining is 7 1/2 by 11 1/2 inches. (Videos 2, 3, & 4)
  2. Attach the zipper to the outside fabric (Video 5)
  3. Stitch the lining to the top of the outside fabric, leaving a hole to turn the purse when you’re done (Videos 6 & 7)
  4. Top stitch the zipper (Video 8)
  5. If you’re using a separating zipper, attach the zipper key (Video 9)
  6. Pin the sides and sew (Videos 10 & 11)
  7. Turn the purse (Video 15)
  8. Close the hole where you turned the purse (Video 16)

Note that Lenee makes the bottom of her purse rounded (Videos 12-14) but I did not.

Poorly measured purse, too small and a bit crooked

My sewing machine died before I could finish the last seam
