Tips Include:

- Topstitch above and below the zipper.
At the end of step 1, stitch on the fabric next to the zipper, catching both layers of fabric in the stitching.

This adds a really nice finishing touch at the zipper. Consider using a narrow decorative stitch or specialty thread to make the most of this detail.

- Zig Zag stitch around the inside seam allowance.
After sewing the project together and before turning it right sides out. Trim the seam allowances so they are nice and neat.

Use a zig zag stitch and stitch around all four raw edges of the project to keep the seam allowance from raveling.
