Pin and sew around the edges, leaving top opening in one side.

Press, pin and topstitch around all the edges.

Fold the side pocket panel in half and topstitch the top.
Place the pocket panels on the side panels and sew them.
Then connect it to the bottom panel.

Mark the center of a front panel and the center of the gusset panel (just fold the piece in half to find the center).
Then using the center marks, start pining the bottom (raw edge- not zipper edge) of the gusset panel around the perimeter of front panel.
