A great tutorial, I had a slight miscalculation with cutting material for a clutch and ended up with one slightly too big for the zip I had purchased. I would have had to make a lot of cutting changes to make the pouch smaller but by adding the tabs I was able to make my mistake invisible. The instructions were easy to follow and I was very impressed with how it looked that I may use this method instead of leaving the zipper plain in future projects.
