Yet another ITH zipped purse, but this time with a big difference. I was inspired by those zips with fancy tapes which are designed to be stitched on the outside of a garment (and which cost an arm and a leg!) In this purse the zip is added to the material, rather than the other way round, and the tapes decorated with fancy stitching.
Still fully lined with no raw edges!

This isn't a fancy zip! It is an ordinary one with fancy stitching. The posh ones cost an arm and a leg!

I ordered a normal endless zip amongst other things last week and noticed the firm has fancy ones as well at low cost, and as it is EU there are no added custom duties. Their service is excellent.

24276Great idea to do it this way. The decorative stitch is just as nice as those fancy tapes, if not better!
