Sewing With Debbie Shore - Recessed Zip Tote Bag
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ต.ค. 2024
- This simple tote features a secure recessed zip, a technique that can be used in many styles of bag. No pockets for this one but they can be added if you wish.
Instead of boxing the base this one has darts to give it shape.
I’ve used a linen/canvas outer fabric, [Mulberry Trees red] and Burgundy cotton lining, with H640 fusible fleece to stabilise.

I love this technique for inserting a recessed zipper.Thank you!
Love this pattern. Downloaded ready! Thanks for yet another easy to follow tutorial. Denise in the UK. X
Thankyou Debbie!! I have never seen a recessed zip opening done this way before. You make it look achievable! Thanks for your fabulous videos. I love watching them and learning new ways of doing things. Blessings from Sue in South Australia!
Hi Debbie, Great tutorial as always. Pleased with my bag. I did struggle with the tutorial for the zip as the fabric colour was a little dark. I will be having another go as I'm sure it will be easier having made it once. Thank you for all the lessons!
Wow... love this bag. That's a beautiful zip application! You are so good at this! Love your tutorials!
Wonderful little bag. Might I suggest using a lighter color zipper when demonstrating. Dark zipper against dark fabric made it very difficult to follow. It is a technique I would lover to master. Thank you for sharing .
Hello Karen. Zips are not easy are they 🥴 Debbie has many tutorials on fitting zips. I learned from one of her tutorials many years ago. Most of them are toiletry bags or makeup bags, but the concept is the same. She takes her time and has different camera angles. There is one very similar to this video Dated 31 dec 2013 called A Zippered, lined tote bag for you to sew by Debbie shore. It’s about 13 minutes in. Hope that helps. Paulette 🌺
Yes, I think a lighter fabric or zipper would be easier to see. Great bag tho’, have always wanted to master this technique. 👍
Wonderful bag. Thank you for sharing.
Love this bag! I think my dimensions were off but its so forgiving. Going to make more
Hi Debbie, I love this project but when your doing the zip I couldn’t see exactly what you were doing because it was a bit dark sorry about complaining 😢😢😢
Try watching Debbie’s live show from today, she’s explained it there as well
I might make my zip tabs longer and cut off the zip stopper, as my machine hates zip stoppers. I love this video, I have this fabric in great an cream x
Really, really cute!
I’d like to make this using faux leather for my daughter. Would I just use the same concept? Thank you for your videos! I’m really enjoying them.
Agree, great tutorial but couldn’t make out what was happening with the zip. Beautiful colour however.
Hi Debbie. I m frm Malaysia. I just saw this bag making and I am going to make one too. Can you have more videos on bag and sling bag
Why does this vid sound like it's been sped up
Lovely bag
