So far I've been able to sew around most of the ends and I've squeezed the insert in.
I've still to sew the remaining zip on and I can't do that till I finish the sides, which near had me scrapping the whole thing. The area needing sewing is the junction where the zip meets the sides and is spectacularly tough to sew through. Pliers were needed to push and pull the needle through!
I'm not happy with the finish here...

This end is what nearly caused its demise...

Pams had the idea that I could glue it all in place then sew. Not sure if it's gonna work but I'll try that tomorrow. If that fails, it's going in the bin.
