RECOMMENDED FABRICS: Please review the back of the pattern cover for recommended fabrics. Shop our selection of Cork Fabric or Faux Leather, for a designer finish. We also offer quality Interfacing and Stabilizers
ZIPPER REQUIRED: This pattern requires a 7” single slide and 15-¼” double slide zipper for the small, 8” single slide and 18” double slide zipper for the medium, and a 8” single slide and 22-½” double slide zipper for the large. Shop our selection of Zippers by the Yard, to achieve the professional appearance of metal, but with ease of sewing with nylon!
