Tutorial: Mini fanny pack

I remember in middle school when fanny packs were all the rage. And then they went out of style – for a looooong time! But now they’re back, just as handy as always. Sew4Home shows how you can sew a mini fanny pack. It’s got an updated design, flatter and less elongated as the ones I remember from back in the day. Finished dimensions are approximately 9″ wide x 6½” tall.
