Easy pouch without curved zippers or bias tape!

Let’s learn how to make this small and comfortable fanny pack. It is also called bum bag, belt bag, moon bag, belly bag, waist bag. Small fabric pouch is worn like a belt around the waist or across the body by the recent fashion. Denim fanny pack looks quite cute and unusual and is great to carry a few small items and have your hands free.
This version of the bum bag does not require sewing zips in curves, so it’s a quite easy version of a fanny pack. The pouch is not exactly flat either, but the volume is at the bottom, not at top, which makes it different from you used to see, yet comfy.

Using old jeans for your craft projects helps our Mother Nature in a very big way! This bag is a great DIY sewing project for the green crafters and eco thinkers :))

I’d rate the difficulty level as easy to medium. It’s not too complicated, but you do need some sewing experience.
The tutorial is full of photos and detailed step by step instructions.
How to insert zippers and how to feed the strap – all is in there. Plus a BONUS – how to plan and cut the jeans to keep that cool denim look, pockets and seams.

Size of the finished bag:
Width when flat 15 1/2″ (40 cm)
Height when flat appx 7″ (18 cm)
