My Latest Sewing Project - A Waist Bag

I fancied having a go at making myself a waist bag.

It will be handy to use, to hold my keys, mobile phone, and tissues etc,
when I go out walking.

In the colder months it will easily fit underneath my jacket or coat.

I found a free YouTube tutorial HERE by Miko Craft which I followed.
Although it is all spoken in Inonesian, Miko does provide an English written
translation, so I found his instructions and pattern easy to follow once
I had watched the video a few times.

I purchased the canvas outer fabric and the cotton lining fabric from
The Cheap Shop in Tiptree, Essex.

Whilst we are in lockdown, they have been operating on
minimal staff, and requesting orders to be emailed to them.

I emailed my order through to them, adding a few extra items which 

were not shown on their website e.g. bag making hardware.

Stephanie called me the next day, and kindly Whatsapped me photos
of the stock they had for all the additional items for me to choose from.
Postage and packaging of £2.99 was added to my order which

I received the next day by courier.

An amazing, friendly service from a local company, who have a great selection of
fabrics, knitting wools and haberdashery items. I would certainly recommend
and use them again.

Thank you for visiting my blog today.
