Step 4Zippered pocket/pouch (This step is optional, but don't be scared by the zipper. It's not as evil of a sewing step as most people believe)
1. Mark a straight line that is 8 inches long on main lining piece 2 1/2 inches from the top on one side of the lining. Cut along that line. Snip diagonally from the end of that line 1/8 of an inch.
2. Press these flaps open.
3. Hand baste (wide stitches) your zipper centered into this opening. The pull for the zipper should be seen through this hole on the right side of the fabric.
4. Pin the 10 inch by 20 inch piece of lining fabric to the top half of the zipper as shown.
5. Using your zipper foot, sew the pocket lining, zipper, and main lining piece together.
6. Fold back the pocket lining revealing the zipper again.
7. Pin the opposite end of the pocket lining to the zipper and main lining piece.
8. Sew as before.
9. Sew the edges of the pocket together as pictured
TADA! a zippered pocket. Pat yourself on the back. That is a step many people would have skipped but you now have a place to store your keys! SCORE!
