I have an ITH zipper purse design that I really like but it is not lined. Today I stitched it out making it a lined purse by using the knowledge that I have gained from making other zipper purses. I re-stitched some steps and omitted others and I am very pleased with the end result. But I can't show it to you because it will be my Secret Santa gift and I don't want to give away any secrets.

full marks to you for thinking outside the square!!

Well done! Now you have all of us wondering if it's "me" you got.

Well, now you've done it. It is hard enough waiting to see all the wondetful SS gifts, but now you have fillled us with such anticipation it will be that much more difficult. Congratulations on figuring out your conversion to add the lining. I'm sure the purse is beautiful and the recipient will be overjoyed.

Nice...I hope you are not the only one that gives a zipper purse for your Secret Santa gift....

Congratulations! Once you understand the process, anything is possible.

I've added pockets to some too and sometimes the pocket didn't end up where it should have been on the trial run but once you figure out where it needs to be added it is really quite simple.

Well done for doing such a good job. I hope your SSC will appreciate the work you've done to it. Love Chris
