Zipper Source

Thanks to Diane D. (see comments on last blog entry) I can give you a source to order zippers for your purse. It is an Ebay store called Zipperstop.
You can order individual 14" black ones for 95 cents apiece, or there are color assortments. Under "zippers" in the store there is a category for "handbag zippers" and you can look over the selection.

Note: if you just plan to make one or two purses with zippers, the YKK dressmaker zippers available at Walmart and various fabric shops are adequate to the task; just get a clip on zipper pull or tie some yarn on the pull to make it easier to grab. I carry my purses everyday and the zipper gets a lot of action and has so far been up to the task.
