Great step-by-step instructions - may be a little difficult for a beginner, but honestly, with the steps being so clear, maybe not. I hadn't done a zipper in years, and it turned out great. Love it, and am going to make a couple more for gifts.

great instructions. Just wonder why I needed to purchase a yard of coordinating fabric - 1/2 yard would have been more than enough. very happy with my bag though.
