Bum Bag Sewing Pattern — Adjustable Buckle Strap & Zip | BAILEY (PDF)
Sew your own bum bag with an adjustable buckle strap
The BAILEY Bum Bag is a proper hands-free bag — a zipped main compartment on a webbing strap that clicks shut with a side-release buckle and adjusts to fit over a coat or under one. Wear it at the waist or across the body.
It's a great first bag if you've not put a zip in before: the shape is simple, the pieces are few, and the finished bag is something you'll genuinely use.
What you'll learn
- Inserting a 30cm nylon zip into the top of the bag
- Threading 25mm webbing through a side-release buckle to make an adjustable strap
- Fully lining the bag so it's neat inside as well as out
Finished size
Approximately 22cm wide x 18cm high
What you'll need
½m of your main fabric, ½m of lining fabric, a 30cm nylon zip, a 25mm side-release buckle, and 1.5m of 25mm webbing for the strap.
