Hook
Learning and what I'd do different
- don't use cheap ribbon when you run out of webbing, it don't last
- there is probably a cleverer way to do the adjustable strap so that it can be tightened with a single hand
- if you like wearing in on your right hand side do the strap the other way round to make it easy to put on
Construction
Basic order of operations:
- make front pocket
- attach zip to extra piece of fabric that will become the top of the front panel
- position zip on bottom part of front panel and stitch
- trim the surplus fabric
- don't forget to insert the zipper slider
- construct darts, encasing the ends of the zip
- attach the front pocket lining to the outer front pocket panel
- lining
- inner pockets
- hem them
- attach to lining panels
- assemble lining by stitching gusset between front and back lining (french seams for brownie points)
- inner pockets
- construct outer shell
- attach any webbing loops you desire to the panels
- make the wings (follow the Learn MYOG Everyday Fanny Pack process for this)
- assemble outer shell by sewing gusset to front and back panel (don't forget to attach the wings)
- final assembly
- sew the lining to the outer after inserting them right sides together
- leave a gap in the seam so that you can birth the bag
- top stitch around the top to finish the bag
