I've been looking on and off for a while. I'm still none the wiser. Should I have gone to specsavers?

Guess what?   :rant: 

At least this time I realised before I added the lining and topstitched.

@Bill you can go off people you know!

My unpicker has been very hardworking today.  As well as doing both sides of the zip wrong, I then sewed the edges of the lining down and had to unpick them again to do the bottom seams and turn it through.
Tonight, I'm going to read, memorise and inward digest the rest of the instructions.

@Bodgeitandscarper , on the rare occasion I've made bags, the seam ripper has been my constant companion!  :laughing:

It's certainly looking good now!  I love the Poodle... <3

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.

You have the patience of a saint, I think it would be hidden in the corner of the room by now.

Move up @Celia cus I'd be in the corner with you!! I'd probably be mouthing profanities and throwing things also but you don't want to know that aspect of my personality!!
All kudos to @Bodgeitandscarper for persevering,  :thumb:

I've only unpicked about 3 inches of stitching this morning  0_0 but all I've managed to do is sew one edge of zip to one outer pocket, even tighter curves than the flap zip  :S

Two end pocket flaps done.

I shall now go and wash my mouth out with soap because I'm not the patient polite person you seem to think I am  :laughing:
