Not sure how it worked yesterday but today I am cutting zipper shorter again and again and still the blasted thing will not line up or even get on the rails/teeth. <BR/><BR/>(I never even thought to figure out how to use my zipper foot. I know I have one, but don't think that is the problem. OY.<BR/><BR/>I found some sweet old timey tea towels/dish towels at a garage sale this morning and am making a cute purse/bag out of one.

Good luck with the zipper on the second purse. The placemats are just wonderful. Yes, I can understand your mixed feelings and in fact wonder abt Sam's feelings too when she sees these.
