Sewing Tutorial: Hands free hip bag from a thrift store purse

July 14, by Anne Weaver. Leave a Comment

Tutorial: Hands free hip bag from a thrift store purseSarah from Sadie Seasongoods saw a small bag at a thrift store, and immediately saw its potential.  She turned the awkwardly shaped purse into a hip bag she could wear hands-free.  Unlike the dorky fanny packs I remember from the 80s, her hip bag is chic and, well… hip.  She’s written a tutorial showing how she refashioned the bag.
