Omnicolor Solids - ZPP Kit with Dyneema® Composite Fabric

This was very straightforward to make for a new sewer. I had fun making it and it’s been a great bag!

The video linked is terrible, find the one with the guy making a black bag with the white outline and make sure that you position the zipper so that there will be no white edging visible when it is finished. I still like mine and it is super durable and a good shape for my pack.

It is cool you can pick from so many colors. However, there aren't very clear instructions with the kit. It took almost a month to receive my order after placing it with some other in-stock materials. Use a new needle; DCF is easy to work with but it wears needles quick. This size makes a good dopkit.

This is a very cool kit, and the price is definitely right! Unfortunately, there are a couple things that sort of take away from it.
For starters, there are no written directions. There’s a link to a video, but if you have trouble learning from videos, you’re SOL. The video directions are also not amazing. I’m an experienced sewist (like, I sew lingerie regularly), and I found it a bit frustrating trying to complete this project, and I think that was largely due to having to google for written directions to similar projects, and then adapt them to fit.
Additionally, I found the color didn’t really match what I’d selected. I was looking for a greenish teal, but ended up with dark hunter green.
All that said, it’s still a great kit, and if you don’t have any learning issues and aren’t picky about colors, it’s worth a buy.

Had a great time sewing up these kits for Christmas gifts! The delivery was a bit slower due to the Black Friday rush… But I was able to get them done and out in time. They were a HUGE hit!!

This was my second build-your-own-gear project. I just got a sewing machine, and wanted to make something I'd use as well as check out the dyneema fabric. With some help from youtube videos, I got it all put together in not too long, and it looks good. The only gotcha was that my fabric came with a border, and I initially tried to cut it off. I eventually figured out that the border would be hidden with the correct edge folding.

Everything is perfectly cut and ready to go. And there are plenty of how-to videos on Youtube to explain how to complete the project.

Kit contained everything needed to produce the ZPP bag. Great project. I have never done zippers before and the bag turned out great. Dynema fabric was easy to work with. Completely satisfied with my purchase. Will be back to do more.

These 2 kits were my introduction into using a sewing machine and MYOG. They are well worth the money and the video instructions were easy to follow along too. The staff were helpful in answering my questions about the fabrics. Can't wait to order some more fabric and hardware and make more gear for next year's camping trips. I would definitely recommend getting these 2 kits or starting these types of projects out before going into some of the more complex items. I started with the stuff sacks which gave me some basic skills that I was able to improve upon with the ZPP kit.

This is a nice, straightforward project for a beginner in sewing gear and DCF. I've made a couple now and thoroughly enjoyed doing so. The only gotcha is that I didn't notice the first time that the zipper pulls are reverse so the water resistant side of the zipper is on the outside. Is it noted in a few different places. I didn't fully grasp what it meant until I started sewing my first one.

Great product!

My first three small sewing projects! These zipper pouch kits were a great introduction to sewing and working with technical materials. Any chance we can open a Ripstop By the Roll up here in Canada?

I'm a noob at DIY gear and using a sewing machine. I thought why not jump into a small easier project to learn my machine and some skills. Watched how to vids on YouTube.
Kits came with everything you need. Was able to make 2 in a few hours. they came out great.

Overall, I am pleased with the kit. I have made three. Two with the printed plaid and one using Dyneema material.
I wasn’t sure about sewing the Dyneema material, and am pleasantly surprised at the relative ease it was to work with, at least with this size of project.
One issue I had was getting the orientation of the zipper correct. The first project I ended up with the pulls for the zipper on the inside. For second and third kits, in addition to playing the video as before, I ‘dry fitted’ the parts, folding into place and pinning to double check the final orientation of the zipper.
