I loved making this tote bag. The instructions were easy to follow. The recessed zipper was a first for me and probably the most challenging component to the bag. However, the YouTube video very helpful. I added interior pockets to make the inside more workable for me. I am so pleased with how it turned out.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you loved making the Anna Tote. Tackling a recessed zipper for the first time is no small feat—kudos to you for taking it on and making it work beautifully! We're so glad the YouTube video helped guide you through it.
Adding interior pockets is such a smart customization. It’s always inspiring to see makers adapt patterns to suit their needs. Your finsihed tote is outstanding-thank you for sharing!
