In this class, you’ll make two versatile foldable dopp kits— one larger with a hang loop and one smaller, perfect for a small yarn project or toiletries. This beginner-friendly project will guide you through key bag-making techniques to create polished, professional-looking pouches.

What You'll Learn: 

• How to install a zipper 
• Using bias binding to finish zipper ends cleanly
• Constructing a foldable dopp kit in two different sizes
• Professional finishing techniques for a polished look

Skill Level:  

You need to be able to sew a straight line, back tack, sew a zig zag, thread & unjam your machine, and wind your bobbin to take this class. This class is perfect for beginners who have some experience with machine sewing and want to continue building their skills.  

Important: If you’re brand new to sewing (haven't driven or threaded your machine before), we recommend taking one of our absolute beginner classes first, like “Meet Your Machine” or “Reversible Napkins.”
