    I have a video tutorial on how to do a welt pocket the link is in my user notes. They are so easy to do! I cut my welt piece about 7-1/2" wide and 8" long. Interface the end you will be putting the welt into. Use a 7" zipper, but I make the zipper welt about 5-1/2" long. Cut off the excess zipper after you put it into the welt.NCW lessons learned?-image.jpg

    I just came across this yesterday. How To Sew Zipper Pocket For Bag I haven't tried it yet. I need to check out Jean's tutorial too. Hope that helps.

    There's a tutorial for that pocket (along with many more tutorials) in the FB group too (the "NCW ADDICTS") group.

    THANK YOU for all these tips and pointers!

    I have another lesson learned, lol. When you're sewing the zipper pocket, make sure the zipper is open so you can turn it right side out. I had the zipper closed, and it took a while to work it open, lol.

    They came in while I was gone. Was too tired to open them last night when I got home. Trying to work up the energy to do it now.

    I cannot find the NCW Addict group. Has it been disbanded?

    I just checked. It is still there. Trying typing it NCW ADDICTS as that is the way the title of the group comes up.
