Embroider A Friendship Zipper Bag

Making personalized gifts for friends is so rewarding!!! I created the featured zipper bag with the Brother Luminaire, using several special features, including the ability to create a stamp outline in embroidery edit mode, create an original design using stamp shapes & decorative fill stitches in My Design Center, and select a specific hoop area to fill with the region fill tool. If you have a machine with options like those found in My Design Center you can create a similar bag design.

​Of course, you can certainly use my basic instructions to create a bag using an embroidery design you already have in your repertoire.
This zipper bag was created for the July 21, 2022 Brother Live show, Episode 284,  broadcast on the Brother Sews USA Facebook page and the Brother Sews USA YouTube channel.
Watch the video below to see each step.
With a full lining and neatly covered zipper ends this bag is as pretty on the inside as it is on the outside. Leave it flat or choose to box the corners. Either way, this bag has plenty of room for a variety of items. Finished bag measures approximately 9-inches wide at the top edge, 6.5-inches at the bottom boxed edge, and 7 -inches long from top to bottom.

Take a peek at the inside of the bag and you'll see my custom label created using the special scanning mat. You’ll find a video showing the steps when you CLICK HERE to visit my Let’s Go Sew with Joanne Banko YouTube channel. While you're there, I'd love to have you subscribe and hit the bell for notifications if you haven't already.

I am very excited after getting my personal loan to buy a car from WESTLAKE LOAN after being cheated twice by fake lenders, to God almighty I was introduced to WEST-LAKE by a colleague who also got a loan for his business expansion and to my biggest surprise I got a loan of 25,000 Euro today.
I encourage all of you in need of a loan to contact West lake via email for a loan application: [email protected]
