​Step IV-B-2, page 5: Change the first and second sentences to read:

​ ​2. With right sides together, align the long edge of the appropriately-sized double-slide zipper (see chart above) along the long curved front edge of the bag, allowing the excess zipper tape to extend evenly on each side and allowing the long edge to extend about ⅛" beyond the long curved edge of the bag. Stitch in place, sewing a generous ¼" from the edge and easing around corners (figure 15).

​Step IV-B-4, page 6: Change the second and third sentences to read:

​ ​With right sides together, align the other long edge of the zipper along the long curved back edge of the bag, being careful to match the marked end points at each end and allowing the long edge to extend about ⅛” beyond the long curved edge of the bag. Stitch in place, sewing a generous ¼” from the edge and easing around corners (figure 17).
