After weeks of struggling with zippers, I finally finished the tote bag with zipper today. I used a pattern based on the All-Day Tote Bag. I tweaked the pattern a little by changing the position of the front pocket and extending the length of the side pocket so it can house an umbrella comfortably, but alas I did not make the length of both pockets match. Oh well.
I wanted to add a zipper and tried unsuccessfully two or three times to make an extended zipper based on a book and a blog, but it wouldn't work. I was about to give up when I chanced upon this book at the library that had a simple zipper tote bag pattern. So now, not only does this new bag have a zipper, my tote bag has one, too!
