could you let me know which tutorial you watched of Jenny's when she put a zip in. I am much better to see something being done than try to follow reading it.

I'm not sure that worked. Here is a link to the forum where I posted the link to Jean's tutorial.

Lovely bag. Amy...that is crazy that you did 'sister' bags.
