Triple Zip Along

When I visited my LQS recently, I picked up some of the Marmalade prints that I spotted on the shelf, and thought that they would be nice to use together for the Triple Zip Along hosted by Debbie at A Quilters Table.
I had a coordinating green solid which I am going to use for the lining but I only got back to Spotlight to pick up the zips the other day.

Anyway, now Deb has the first steps posted, I am going to cut these fabrics ready for the 3ZAL to bring to the "Sew-in" at Rainbow Patchwork, where I can catch up with Fiona again.

Fiona is very kindly going to help me with my zips as she has a great tutorial on her blog.
I have never inserted a zipper before but they are something I have wanted to try for a while now so this is a great opportunity to give them a go.
