Very detailed instructions that just work

Very detailed instructions that just work, every time!

Thank you so much, Lesley! I'm really glad to hear the instructions worked so well for you. I work hard to make the instructions as clear and practical as possible, so it means a lot to know they delivered. Happy making!

Little hard to get the tabs correct and fit

Little hard to get the tabs correct and fit inside the line

Thanks so much for your review, and for giving the tutorial a go! The tabs can be a bit fiddly at first, especially if you’re using a regular presser foot — a slightly wider seam allowance can help with that step if needed. If you’d like to check anything or ask a question, feel free to drop me a message via the contact form — I’m always happy to help. I hope you’re pleased with your finished pouch 😊
