It took 10 minutes to cut the lining fabric, 15 minutes to cut the fashion fabric, and 20 minutes for the foam inserts. Rachel was sewing zippers to the linging for 25 minutes, worked another 30 for the velcro strips to be sewn to the fashion fabric, 20 minutes to attach the zippers to the fashion fabric, and sewed the lining to the fashion fabric in an hour. | ||
