Fanny packs might have a stereotype, but the convenience they provide makes them a hot idem. I have been commissioned to make three bags so far. Two of the clients were looking for a pack that could carry a phone, wallet, keys, and a small sketchbook with pens and a hidden compartment. The latest fanny pack was just for a phone. Each bag I made a paper pattern at two prototypes till the final one was constructed. I also challenged my self during construction to line the little pouches.

Commissioned in 2018. The customer was looking for a simple exterior with three zippered pockets. The interior was lined and had a divider to create two sections.
