That’s what I was thinking. The longer full detail video for the first time you make the project and then the quick less chatty video as a refresher 6 months later.
@@dawonfields7360 Yes. You can make them by hand. It might take you longer and your fingers might be sore but It can be done. Just be careful with your stitches. Make sure they’re not too big or too lose. Some people can hand sew faster than I can machine sew them. It would say most anything can be sewn by hand. Happy Sewing!
Thank you for the great tutorial. I appreciate hearing the directions and I appreciate that you did a quick video with just the necessary stuff. You have such beautiful fabrics.
You're a great teacher! This is so great---I just made a whole slew of stocking stuffers for my students in just a few hours without spending much money., and my coin pouches turned out perfectly. Thank you!😁
I receive so many requests for less chatty videos. I’m trying to find a balance. Normally this type of video would frustrate me but I know that the video linked below is full of slow tips and tricks to help a new zipper sewists succeed.
Thanks for the quick reminder video! After I finish sewing enough totes for my fabric stash, zippered pouches for tools and small projects is next on my list. ❤
Thank you for this tutorial video. I got a sewing machine for Christmas 2023 from my husband. So now im sewing all kinds of cool things. Cat tents, teddy bears, dog hoodies, etc. Then I was directed ro make a tambourine purse.o love how it turned out, but unfortunately my favorite wallet is too big and heavy for it. So why not sew my own wallet? As i was looking for wallet videos I stumbled on your video. Omg i made the cutest coin purse to match my new purse. I eventually found a wallet video and made myself one for my new purse as well. I'm pleased with how my wallet turned out. I haven't used a coin purse since i was a kid. It brings back memories. I love it. Thanks again. ❤
@@rsislandcrafts I made another coin purse last night. It's a great little project for learning one way to install a zipper. I'm going to keep practicing. Thanks again for being such an awesome teacher.
You’re very welcome. It’s good to know different ways to do things so you can use the one that works best for your current project. I love making zipper pouches. I have a zipper playlist. m.th-cam.com/play/PLKGSJJEEjRBXGwYRNJUCKiFdMO_1WsW0u.html
I enjoy this quick tutorial! Sometimes taking a small break & enough time to enjoy your quick video ! That is very nice of you to create this short video. I hope you create more of them. Thank you for sharing this video. 💕
Thanks Judy. I hadn’t thought about It that but yes sometimes I only have a few minutes and I look for a quick video to watch. I do want to update and refresh some of my older videos and to hopefully make them quick videos. Something for everyone
Very easy QUICK zipper on this one. Still love the chatty video better. This does make it easy make for a quick reference if questions when scratching your head thinking how did Robin do that again. LOL. Have an Awesome Day Robin. :)
I know most of my viewers love the longer chatty tip filled videos but I receive so many requests for quicker videos that I just couldn’t ignore them. Not the ones that rudely tell me to stop talking, just the polite ones 🤣🤣🤣. I’m okay with this version because I know the longer one linked below has helped many newbies figure out zippers.
A quick visit today - that makes a change for me as my comments usually take longer than watching the video haha. This tutorial is going in my Robin Pinterest board - happy sewing :)
Wow.. Sure was a quick video. But an excellent project. Back to school is here.. Easy to whip up for the kids. I made a bunch last Christmas and put gift cards in. Thanks for the video Robin!! 👍
It was very short for me. It would have bothered me but I know the video I linked below has been very helpful to new zipper sewists. These little pouches are great for kids.
Hey Robin! Great video. While I was watching I had an idea. How about putting a small piece of velcro on the back outside of the pouch, then putting a small piece of velcro on the INSIDE of a purse. I was thinking it could be kind of a removable pocket. So, if you only wanted to take the pouch with you, you could do that, or if you wanted to put important things in it like ID or a gift card, you could stick it on the inside of your purse attached to the velcro so it won't fall out. Like I said, kind of like a removable pocket. IDK, maybe it would work, maybe not. I'm going to try it.
Great idea Paula! I was chatting with someone else in the comments and they thought It might be a good idea to attach It to key leash that I’ve been putting in my tote bags. You guys come up with terrier ideas.
5:10 I just bought my first machine 4 days ago. This so far is the most easiest explanation for an ultimate newbie like me who has never sewn in my life!! I'll watch all the way through but maybe this will be my first ever project!! I'll watch it another 2 to 3 times lol. Is the fabric normal cotton or canvas cotton or special cotton
I found this shop on Etsy. First time buying from them but I will buy more tags from them. They’re located in France but the turn around was super fast. I think I had my tags in about 2 weeks. They were printed and shipped within 5 days. Very quick and the prices are pretty good. www.etsy.com/listing/62850819/fabric-labels-200-add-your-logo-on?ref=yr_purchases
Thank you. I believe I’m using the same size tags now as in that video but I’m not 100% sure. According to my receipt they are 1.5” x 1”. I hope that helps.
You can make a zipper pouch out of most any fabrics. Most people use a quilting cotton. Walmart, Joann’s, etc have fat quarters which are easy to use for zipper pouches. I’ve used jeans or old dress shirts. Have fun!!
6:16 Thank you I have never sewn before, im excited and scared lol. Which interfacing should i buy? How do I make them in bigger sizes? That way I can make little ones for my kids and a bigger one for co workers or family gifts 😊 You have a very good tutorial Thank u so much, I'll probably re watch it when I make it. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Wow...15 to 20 minutes to make these. That is super quick! I might just have to buy a zipper and try making one. Have you ever tried making them with kam snaps? I'd like to see something similar using them. Thank you!
Like many things it’s personal preference or based on the usage of the item. I currently use fusible fleece for my simple coin pouches. Some people prefer a heavier weight interfacing, or batting, and others use nothing at all. The interfacing I used in this video gave my coin pouches a bit of strength and durability while still allowing the pouch to be soft and able to squish into a pocket or back pack. I switched to fusible fleece for my smaller zipper pouches because I like the ease of It being fusible, versus some battings, and the pouch still maintains the slight squish factor that I like when I use batting. Fusible fleece can be used as is or I can quilt It as if It were standard cotton batting.
Yes, that should work fine. I have random zippers in my stash. Sometimes I start with the zipper then choose the fabric just so I can clear out some of those random zippers. I cut my fabric so that It fits between the metal stoppers on the chosen zipper. Then I choose how deep I want the pouch to be. That way I know I won’t be sewing over the metal stoppers by accident.
These are great for gifts especially if you need to make multiples. I personally prefer the nylon zipper. That way I can use a longer zipper and sew over the zipper. If you choose to use a metal zipper then you have to make your pouch the exact size as the zipper basically. No cutting or sewing over a metal zipper. If you like the look of a metal zipper they have nylon ones that look like metal. Best of both worlds.
I don’t think there would any additional steps. Just to make sure your hand stitches aren’t too long. Shorter stitches will make a stronger pouch. Happy Stitching!
Great video and instructions. I tried making three of these yesterday…😁 Do you have any tips to keep the zip straight please? I’ve tried tacking the zip and folding it into lining, but keeps slipping at either side, and looking bulky at the edges. Thanks so much !
Thank you. I’ve shown what I do with my zipper but it’s been in random videos. Not sure if I put It in this video. Maybe this will make sense. After the pouch is turned right sides out I put my thumb on the zipper and my first finger inside. With pressure from both sides I slowly push the zipper corners up and out. I don’t push too hard because then you can pop the seam or get a weird spot. I can usually get It to look pretty nice. Of course there’s a slant to those corners but it’s subtle not a big dent. I also back stitch over the zipper area to keep everything secure. I’ve tried tacking the zipper ends down and It didn’t do much for me. I prefer not to use zipper tabs because they can be fiddly and they make the opening smaller. I hope that helps. I also I have a playlist full of zipper pouch videos.
Those few minutes here and there add up quickly. When you’re able to keep a little sewing station set up It becomes easier to sit and sew for five minutes here and there. No setting up the machine or putting It away. It’s a great tip for people trying to figure out how to get more sewing done in a day. Thanks for sharing.
@@mld1x598 I’ve just reread your question and just in case I didn’t fully answer It correctly here’s another tip. If the zipper isn’t staying lined up along the top of the fabric you can of course use more pins and clips. Or some people like to use a line to glue to hold the zipper in place. Or a thin fusible seam tape. If you only meant the corners then you can ignore this tip 🤣
In the description box I linked the original zipper pouch video. I mention It early in this video. It’s a bit longer and more in depth. Maybe that version would be easier for you to follow. m.th-cam.com/video/raIza6Cw19k/w-d-xo.html

Greta idea! I like that better then having the keys hanging although coins are surprisingly heavy especially when they hang out in large groups.

How much do you sell them?? Thank you 😊
Depends. If it’s a simple pouch smaller pouch then $8-10. If there’s lots of quilting and a detailed pattern then the price increases.
/Why do you use interfacing for this project? what is the advantage?
Like many things it’s personal preference or based on the usage of the item. I currently use fusible fleece for my simple coin pouches.

quick and nice i missed your xtra tag on the side how did u do that and what is that called im a beginner
Thanks. The tag on the side is my shop tag. It’s sewn into the seam. I buy my fabric tags from various shops on Etsy.
So I could use 5 x 6 inch fabric pieces with my 7 inch zipper? I have several 7 inch zippers in my stash.
Yes, that should work fine. I have random zippers in my stash. Sometimes I start with the zipper then choose the fabric just so I can clear out some of those random zippers. I cut my fabric so that It fits between the metal stoppers on the chosen zipper. Then I choose how deep I want the pouch to be. That way I know I won’t be sewing over the metal stoppers by accident.
@@rsislandcrafts THANK YOU!! Very helpful!
You’re very welcome.
Already looking into small homemade gifts for Christmas and I think this is perfect thank you! Do you think a plastic or metal zipper is better?
These are great for gifts especially if you need to make multiples. I personally prefer the nylon zipper. That way I can use a longer zipper and sew over the zipper. If you choose to use a metal zipper then you have to make your pouch the exact size as the zipper basically. No cutting or sewing over a metal zipper. If you like the look of a metal zipper they have nylon ones that look like metal. Best of both worlds.
This is really cool. If I try to hand sew, are there any additional steps i should add?
I don’t think there would any additional steps. Just to make sure your hand stitches aren’t too long. Shorter stitches will make a stronger pouch. Happy Stitching!
@@rsislandcrafts thank you!! 💖
What is the reason for choosing a bigger zipper?
It’s easier to sew if the zipper is longer than the pouch. Otherwise the zipper pull gets in the way while sewing.
Great video and instructions. I tried making three of these yesterday…😁

How did you add your label? Instead I could sew my child's name or the person whose gift it will be so it's personalised 8:40
I purchase my labels on Etsy or online. They are folded over and sewn into the side of the pouch when you sew the side seam.
Here is my quick comment! 🤣
