Remember all those zippers I bought at Salvation Army? I got the guilts and have been sewing ITH zipper bags - 10 so far. Since I have unusual colors, I start with a zipper and then find fabric to match and then fabrics to coordinate with first fabric.

Have been kicking myself ever since I was in a upholstery fabric store and they were clearing out 3-5" long zippers of odd color shades for I believe 7 cents each and I only grabbed a handful instead of the whole box of several hundred. If I had purchased them all, I am sure all of you would be helping me to get them out of my storage and into completed projects as fast as I could ship them.

Update: Finished all the college colors I had, so started on Christmas bags and I'm up to 17. Tomorrow, I'll give it a rest. Our big patriotic concert at church in the afternoon, with symphony and choir around 100.

I need zippers! I sorted and pulled a couple to do ITH with, and determined that I need zippers. I have a designs that uses 3 in one piece. I have a set of 3 only they are green. I need to visit Salvation Army! I hope to be a lucky as you!

Those zippers were a super find and now you are turning them into the cutest bags ever.

Sounds like a plan I could take and run with. Good thinking!/Lillian
