Triple Zip... it worked!
My triple zip pouch worked quite nicely! Much better than the first one I made. This time I only finger pressed and avoided issues with irons and zippers. I found that the trick to getting the top zipper tabs nice is to pinch the tab in half when sewing the side seams. I think I will try making another one and take a picture of that step. I also do not use a zipper foot. I stop and start moving the zipper pull out of the way as needed. I am much happier without a zipper foot.
So much fun!
