Pea Pod, becca and bendy bags -- Lazy girl designs
Anyone else gotten hooked on making these adorable little bags? I've had the pattern a couple of weeks but hadn't had time to sit down and make them-- now I can't stop. They're so fast and easy to make, plus they end up darn cute for those "little something" Christmas gifts.
My only whiny complaint is that I'm going through zippers at a ridiculous rate-- and I hadn't ordered any extra pulls for doing the mono-track zippers, not having fully understood the concept, so I've got a whole bunch of the half zips sitting there and mocking me until I find a good source for pulls.
Do tell if you know where to find coat and clark pulls at a reasonable price!

But of course ; )
The technical name for the things is "zipper coil sliders" and they are apparently brand-specific. So there are some YKK bulk packages of sliders, but none for Coats and Clark that I have found, hence my question, as if anyone in the world would know, it's likely to be someone who sews and hangs out here.
But even if I end up wasting half the zipper, the bags are darn cute and practically free, given that I use scraps on hand, so not really such a big deal.

I don't know what you consider reasonable, but when I went to Lazy Girl Designs to see what you were talking about, right there is a link to Atkinson Designs to buy the zipper pulls.
Also take a look at WAWAK Sewing Supplies, was once Atlantic Thread and Supply.

Atkinson Designs introduces their new line of beautiful 22″ zips and extra pulls we need for these new Girls. Here are the 10 scrumptious colors of the new 22″ long zips. The loose zipper pulls come in a Candy Color Mix of 30+ pulls that work with all of Terry’s 14″, and new 22″ zippers. Terry has an incredible eye for color, so you know you are going to love all of these. http://www.lazygirldesigns.com/bag-d...pper-technique
