I noticed recently that I saw a lot of people walking around with small bags that to me, resembled fanny packs but that they were being worn on the back instead of around the waist. I had an ah-ha moment and decided that someone needed to design a pattern to replace that old unpopular "fanny pack" and come up with something more modern. And so I came up with the Orchid Waist/Sling bag!
This bag is a nice size and full of awesome features:
- adjustable strap so the bag can be worn around your waist or on your back
- main compartment with a zippered closure
- 2 slip pockets inside
- large front exterior pocket with a flap that also has a built in zippered pocket
Measurements for the bag are 11.5 inches W x 8.5 inches H. I can see this as a unisex bag depending on what fabrics you use. Here are a few photos to demonstrate!
