My first attempt at an ITH Zipper purse.

My hoop is 5.5x5.5 so I rotated Sue’s 5x7 design and reduced in one direction till it was 5x5.5. Hope you don’t mind Sue, thanks so much for the design, I love it and really wanted to try it.

Yes , they are. Wish some of the others could be tweaked to fit my hoop too, but I love them all and enjoy seeing them in projects. Cheers, Bev.

A pat on the back for you for not only trying, but succeeding.

Thanks, but don't get the sneezes from the dust the pat raises. Cheers, Bev.

That was a tall order for your first try! Well done.
It really isn't a good idea to resize designs with a zip though. You got away with it as you only squashed it sideways. The other direction would have been disastrous!

Thanks Sue, I knew that I had to leave the zipper placement exactly as it was or broken needles would probably be the least of my problems! Cheers, Bev.

Well done Bev. That first ITH zipper is scary but now we expect to see more. Lyn. xx
