For the best results with the Aurora Triple Zip Bag, we recommend using a mid-weight fabric like canvas or denim for the exterior. If you are a beginner, using a non-directional print will make the assembly of the three zippered compartments much easier. For those seeking a professional boutique finish, this pattern looks stunning in cork or vinyl, especially when sewn on an industrial machine. If you are working on a domestic machine, quilt-weight cotton reinforced with woven interfacing or Decovil Light provides excellent structure without excessive bulk.
