Take your 2”x2” ring tab piece and place it wrong side up. Fold it in half and press so that you have a crease down the middle. Now open and fold each side in to the middle crease so it looks like this.
Now fold on the center crease so that the top and bottom edges meet. You will end up with a piece that is ½” wide and 2” long. Topstitch along both long edges about ⅛” in from the edge. Set aside.
Trim both metal stops off the 5” zipper and add tabs to each side using your preferred method so that you end up with a tabbed zipper that is at least 6 ¼” long.
Place the front pocket panel bottom piece right side up. Align the 6 ¼” tabbed zipper you just made with the top of the front pocket panel bottom piece with the zipper face down.
