You give just the right amount of information and are so pleasant to listen to. I really enjoy your videos and watch them even if I never plan to make an item you're making. I always walk away knowing that if I wanted to, I could, with your instruction. Thanks a lot!!
Thank you. Very clear. And I'm happy that we don't have to ladder stitch the inside 😊. I bought hidden zippers in bulk, so will be modifying instructions a little bit.
New subscriber here. This is a great tutorial. Your clear, concise and easy to follow instructions paired with your male voice is so refreshing. Thank you!
So glad you're back to a semi-regular posting schedule. Really enjoy how approachable you make sewing and garment making. Like the t-shirt too, See you space cowboy.
I needed a refresher on zipper into outer and lining fabric on these but watched your entire video because you were great. Your decked out machine is fun and those shears are the bomb!
I love your videos! I've been trying to teach myself to sew and you are so helpful. My husband has been a Star Wars cosplayer for over twenty years and I hope to one day make him a costume.
I've recently discovered your channel as I'm trying to learn to sew and it's fantastic how well you explain things! It great info without hyperbole or artificial cheerfulness and I am here for it. Keep it coming!!
Thank you so much for the lovely comment! It's great that people like yourself show appreciation for videos without the whole "Game Show Host" attitude. Hope you're making some great new stuff this summer, cheers!
I have been watching a few videos of how to make this and attempted, each time I ended up with the zipper backwards. I watched your video and got it right an hour ago. Thank you do much for sharing this.
I usually don't subscribe or follow anyone, BUT I LOVE your precise instructions and I don't get bored. I've watched all your videos up to this point and not once have I fast forward, which is a compliment. You are so down to earth which is another plus. I loved watching you teach Evil Ted Smith to sew. I was a little heart broke that I couldn't find the jean or hoodie patterns. I really wanted to make them, but trying to find similar patterns.
Thank you so much for showing the part of the zipper being folded down. I've watched so many videos and no one tells us this part. I think they think we should know, but being a newbie, I'm clueless.
Great instructions, I love my pouch!! I'm a beginner, super slow and still learning and you are a great teacher! Cannot wait to do another project with you.
Thanks a ton! I don't have too many videos shoots pending edits actually, hope to crunch a few more out in the next few weeks :) Hope you enjoy the rest of your summer!!
Dude, awsome! Made one today as my first real sewing project and it looks amazing thx to you! Clear instructions with all necessary info Thank you for really valuable content
This was an awesome tutorial, very thorough, especially for folding the zipper before sewing so that it lays properly when the bag is turned out. This was my first sewing project (ambitious?) but it turned out amazing. Great to start a new skill with a successful outcome. Thank you! I made mine with a canvass duck exterior and flannel lining from a recycled shirt. Super durable and I will wax the canvas for added durability.
Awesome! So happy this was helpful, good choice on the fabrics too. Duck is such an underrated material. Hope you can make some wild new stuff this winter, cheers!
Great job and thanks for the zipper demonstration that is one of my hardest problems but I am gonna try your way. Your demonstration/instructions look so easy.
This tutorial is very clear and easy to understand!! I think beginners would definitely benefit from this. And I also do like how you decorated your sewing machine with stickers, I should do that too! Haha!
Love your tutorial and I often refer back to it if I forget and just want to make sure I'm stacking my layers right. The 1st zipper pouch I made the tutorial was wrong and after ripping the seams apart twice I found your tutorial and almost immeadiately I knew I had to be correct as It was different from the other one I was trying to learn from. I love how you explained the zipper foot also. Thank you kindly. I will also try more of your tutorials in the future. Thank you again and keep up the good work.
I found your video as a nice refresher on how to do a zipper pouch, and learned some better ways to sew! Thank you! Im still a zipper noob, so this was helpful. 😊
Todd your absolutely amazing! I love your teaching methods. I’m not a beginner, however I love watching your tutorials. Can’t wait for the next one. Take care.
Great to see you post again! Your messenger bag series is my favorite, I've made two of them with that same pattern and following your videos as a guide.
That pair of scissors are OLYMPIC suze...lol! I do believe they are bigger than my car...😅 The bag is VERY cute and your instructions are easy to follow...❤
This is such a great tutorial! I love how you break it down step by step and explain each step! Thank you for sharing this with us! I look forward to watching more of your videos!
I have the hardest time with my zipper foot sewing straight lines....it alway tends to bounce off the zipper tracks and make my stitches jump...love the bag and coffee fabric!
I just discovered you a few days ago I'm brand new to sewing the clarity in which you instruct is awesome not everyone can teach I just want to ask if you would teach a cross body bag just like this pouch with an inside zippered compartment thank you.
Double pins! How have i not seen ghat before? Cannot tell you how many times I've been zoned out and just tore through my opening for turning. I've ignored different colored pins, a pencil mark, using a clip instead. Maybe double pins will work? It doesnt happen EvErY time but it happens enough I'm willing to try a new habit. Thanks!
Hi is there any chance of you making a video on making up a zipper with top and bottom stoppers for open zipper s I'm a novice and I really struggle with this as I'm sure there will be a hell of a lot more like me and once again thank you for all the videos and the explanation is fantastic on them all yours konrad
I liked the video, Chris, but: (there is always a but😏) when trimming anything you need to turn inside out use your pinking shears instead of scissors to reduce the bulk. Much love to you, Chris.
Thanks for watching, I have no idea what I'm doing so I just kinda wing it every time I film something. One of these days I'll get the proper equipment.
I've been sewing for 3 years now and I always learn a lot from your tutorials, even this far along :) Question: Why do you prefer using pins when joining the panels? I almost always use clips
Same here, sewing for about 10 years and I still feel like a total beginner most of the time :P I prefer pins for garment sewing because there is minimal risk of slip. When I'm doing bags, costumes, and upholstery I prefer clips since the material is much thicker. So it's about 50/50 of each :)
This tutorial was great to follow but somewhere I've made a few mistakes. I shortened the lining when I pinned everything to go around the edges and I've not caught the zipper properly either end. But nevermind I'll try again tomorrow!
I still haven't done it yet, but I'm planning to film it this week (men's dress shirt demo). Thanks for being patient, I'll get to work on that soon! Thanks for watching :)
What are you using to cut the fabric? When you say lining panels what type of fabric is it that I should look for ? What kind f zipper is that ? I saw a lot in the store sorry I’m completely hew
In my experience with Brother machines, the sewing or embroidery functions are both equally good on either hybrid or stand-alone machines. The difference is stand-alone machines usually offer more features for the specific tasks
Nice tutorial, simple approach to a nifty project. I have a question. What brand are and where did you obtain your scissors from, I would like to get myself a pair of those, nice! 😯
i'VE MAD SIX OF THESE POUCHES SO FAR...I MAY BE ADDICTED
They are lots of fun! And useful, also great for gifts.
I like to say the difference between, "Where did you buy that?" and "Did you make that?" is an iron.
Exactly, it's such a huge deal! Thx for watching 😁
That and straight seams, not wobbly stitches.
@@patriciajrs46yea I’m a beginner and I definitely need to work on that.
Thank you for actually talking through the instructions and not playing music. I had to subscribe ❤

I have watched 100 videos on bags. Your the one that showed me the best. Every step. I got it on the first try. Thank you. Keep them coming
Well that makes me very happy to hear! Thanks so much for watching, enjoy all your projects over the holidays :D
New subscriber here. This is a great tutorial. Your clear, concise and easy to follow instructions paired with your male voice is so refreshing. Thank you!
Awwww, thx so much! I love sharing what I've learned. Planning lots more soon, appreciate the support!

Thx a ton for the positivity! Hope you're making some cool stuff this summer. Three - Two - One - Let's Jam!
@@TockCustomDo you play guitar?
I have used other tutorials, yours is the best and easiest I’ve ever used!!
I needed a refresher on zipper into outer and lining fabric on these but watched your entire video because you were great. Your decked out machine is fun and those shears are the bomb!
I love your videos! I've been trying to teach myself to sew and you are so helpful. My husband has been a Star Wars cosplayer for over twenty years and I hope to one day make him a costume.
Thank you so much! Hey I got into sewing to make cosplays, so I totally understand the struggle, hope you're having fun with your projects :)
I've recently discovered your channel as I'm trying to learn to sew and it's fantastic how well you explain things! It great info without hyperbole or artificial cheerfulness and I am here for it. Keep it coming!!

"Game Show Host" energy... Well, using that forever. And yes, I find it very off-putting.
I have been watching a few videos of how to make this and attempted, each time I ended up with the zipper backwards. I watched your video and got it right an hour ago. Thank you do much for sharing this.
Nicely done! You are a great teacher.

That coffee cup fabric is so random and weird, I love it. Really good video man, Ill be sure to give this a go. One day zippers wont scare me anymore!
lol thx man, hope you have fun making some new stuff this summer. Love the music on your channel, super chill :)
I did this class with you last year at DragonCon, and it was a blast! You’re a great teacher, and I love your videos!
Oh nice! Happy to hear from someone at the DragonCon class! Thx for watching, I wont make it this year but hope you have a blast 😀
I like the way you methodically explain the way you make the zipper pouches, excellent video and thanks for posting.
Thank you so much for showing the part of the zipper being folded down. I've watched so many videos and no one tells us this part. I think they think we should know, but being a newbie, I'm clueless.
Love your videos they've helped me get into sewing, went from knowing nothing to tailoring my clothes and making fun pouches!
That's terrific! Happy to hear you're having fun making some cool stuff this summer. Thx so much for watching 🤗
Great instructions, I love my pouch!! I'm a beginner, super slow and still learning and you are a great teacher! Cannot wait to do another project with you.
Awww, that's great! Hope you're having fun with everything. I'm in a new studio now, so I'll be excited to share new stuff soon. Happy Holidays!
Excellent project, I’m going to use this for showing people how to start off with easy sewing projects. Thanks. Looking forward to more of your work.
Terrific, hopefully it helps you and your people learn a cool introductory project 🤗
You are so good. Best zipper pouch tutorial.
You are the best on the internet for explaining sewing to beginners. This video was great, again. Thanks!
Thanks - new to sewing and your videos are great - always learn something
Excellent! Happy these have been helpful, thanks so much for watching :D
Great video Todd, you showed this process do well, and it is so nice to see a new video from you as well.
Thanks so much for watching! Hope you get to make some fun new pouches 😊
Gonna miss you down here Chris. Best of luck with the move!
Doesn't surprise me that you have a ton of videos in storage what with your workshop.
Thanks a ton! I don't have too many videos shoots pending edits actually, hope to crunch a few more out in the next few weeks :) Hope you enjoy the rest of your summer!!
Dude, awsome!
Made one today as my first real sewing project and it looks amazing thx to you!
Clear instructions with all necessary info
Thank you for really valuable content
This is the best tutorial in a zipper pouch. Thanks for the clear instructions. 😊
Finally a tutorial that is just perfect. Thank you so much. ❤

I love this. Thank you so much. I didn't realize how important ironing is!
So happy this was helpful! Also yes, it's crazy how much I iron while making pretty much anything. Thanks so much for watching :D

Great tutorecesial for beginners like me. I added a piece of felt to both the outside pieces and worked out well.Thanks
Awesome! Thanks so much for watching, glad you ended up with a fun new pouch :)

Great to see you post again! Your messenger bag series is my favorite, I've made two of them with that same pattern and following your videos as a guide.

It doesnt happen EvErY time but it happens enough I'm willing to try a new habit. Thanks!
Oops. Missed the beginning. Saw the dimensions. GREAT video!
I added in interfacing. Thank you for this video. I like the simple ones.
Did you give dimensions of the project?
Fantastic thank you from Australia
Hi Chris! Love this video. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching :D

You are a vert good teacher. Thank you
Very nice! I am going to try this!
Very cool, let me know how it turns out :)
Great to see you love the zipper pouch❤ thank you
👍🏽 installed my first Zip 🎉
Hi is there any chance of you making a video on making up a zipper with top and bottom stoppers for open zipper s I'm a novice and I really struggle with this as I'm sure there will be a hell of a lot more like me and once again thank you for all the videos and the explanation is fantastic on them all yours konrad
I already have a video on how to make zippers, and how to modify them if that's what you mean? Hopefully you found something by now, thx for watching!
I liked the video, Chris, but: (there is always a but😏) when trimming anything you need to turn inside out use your pinking shears instead of scissors to reduce the bulk. Much love to you, Chris.
Thanks for watching, I have no idea what I'm doing so I just kinda wing it every time I film something. One of these days I'll get the proper equipment.
Definitely what I was looking for. One question. Is the inner liner(solid brown) a different measurement from the outer?
Nice gift idea!
I've been sewing for 3 years now and I always learn a lot from your tutorials, even this far along :)
Question: Why do you prefer using pins when joining the panels? I almost always use clips
Same here, sewing for about 10 years and I still feel like a total beginner most of the time :P
I prefer pins for garment sewing because there is minimal risk of slip. When I'm doing bags, costumes, and upholstery I prefer clips since the material is much thicker. So it's about 50/50 of each :)
Omg I miss u! Good to see u again ❤
Thank you! Helped me so much!
❤❤ love the tutorial. You're a great teacher 💯!! Fun fabrics too.
Could you show us how to make a coupon booklet?That sounds like a fun and exciting project
This tutorial was great to follow but somewhere I've made a few mistakes. I shortened the lining when I pinned everything to go around the edges and I've not caught the zipper properly either end. But nevermind I'll try again tomorrow!
Thank you for a wonderful explanation. Please please please can we have some more beginner projects and fancy dress costumes for kids ?
Bro, I love your videos ❤
Thanks a ton man, means a lot!
Have you ever made a clasp coin pouch/pursAnd if you have have you made a video I have missed on how to make one?
Thank you, Chris. I finally understand putting a zipper in!😂
Great tutorial!
Thank you so much ☺️
Have you ever made the men’s shirt with
Long sleeves? You mentioned you’d make it in the original video but I don’t see it.
I still haven't done it yet, but I'm planning to film it this week (men's dress shirt demo). Thanks for being patient, I'll get to work on that soon! Thanks for watching :)

Quick question regarding sewing/embroidery combo machines: is the sewing function quality as good as a stand alone sewing machine?🧐
In my experience with Brother machines, the sewing or embroidery functions are both equally good on either hybrid or stand-alone machines. The difference is stand-alone machines usually offer more features for the specific tasks
@@TockCustom thank you!🤩
Great Video!!!!!! Thank you!
great instructional guide!
Thanks buddy! This was the same one we got to make at DragonCon last year
Nice tutorial, simple approach to a nifty project. I have a question. What brand are and where did you obtain your scissors from, I would like to get myself a pair of those, nice! 😯
Thx a ton for watching! Oh, those shears are from Famore Cutlery, I have affiliate links to their shop if you're interested. Their stuff is the best 🤗
How would you add a small pocket on the inside?
Wow he's the best
Great video!
We ladies like pockets. Have you ever done a pouch with pockets in it?
Not yet, but that would be a great idea!
Where do you get you fabrics??
Please tell me what are these shears?????
Very nice.😊
thanks
I thought it is a garage ..😂❤❤
My stepmother is a fantastic seamstress, and she says You sew with your iron ,
You go slow to show- great although I’ve been sewing for 4 years there is always something I need to tweet to learn. Thanks.
3, 2, 1 let's jam.
See you space cowboy...
You look like Tim lambesis
Where is the measurements?
I have made many pouches hp it yourself is so simple. I just made one for my son’s girlfriend. You are a very good teacher.
