"Green" Re-usable Grocery Bags

Step 2 Sew sides and handle

2. With wrong sides together, sew sides and top of handle with a zig zag stitch or anything durable. I used a zig zag first and then follow with a straight stitch since I don't have a serger.

I am missing something. When do the tops of the handles get sewn together? I think I have followid the instructions, but the tops of the handles are still unsewn.

look at the directions for this page. it says,

"With wrong sides together, sew sides and top of handle with a zig zag stitch or anything durable."

SOO, set your machine for zigzag, sew up the sides, clip the thread and sew the handles, clip the thread and go to next section of directions.

or better yet as she said, sew it with a zigzag and then do a straight stitch right next to the zigzag cause zig zag doesn't take a lot of stress by itself.
