Have you jumped on the cross body bag craze? Are you still calling them fanny packs {haha} I didn’t wear a fanny pack when it was the craze the first time around, but I have totally jumped on the cross body bag wearing fad. I’ve been sewing several versions over the past few months and my new zippered cross body bag pattern is my brand new favorite! I’ve been wearing the black vinyl version for several weeks now and I love it to pieces. I wore it all last week at the Brother Experience and I got so many compliments.
Cross Body Bag with Zippers –
I’m so so excited to bring you a brand new PDF pattern. This Cross Body bag pattern is brand new just for you and you are going to love it! The three zipper pockets give you lots of room for storage and organization and I’ve been using this for weeks and loving it. This bag is the perfect size for daily war using it for my daily bag.
This bag can be worn two ways. The black bag has the buckles on the sides and is worn a bit lower on the body. The white version has the buckles flat from the back and is meant to be warn a bit higher on the body.
The versions I sewed were made from vinyl and canvas. This pattern is intended for fabrics with structure, but you can add interfacing to thinner fabric. The canvas version has interfacing on the back and the vinyl version is not faced. A fully lined bag this cross body is as beautiful on the inside as the out.

The finished dimensions of the bag 8.5” x 5.5”x 2.5. Just the perfect size for holding my phone, wallet, a sanitizer, keys, pens and some feminine products… Oh and some hearing aid batteries for my daughter. I love that I can still carry all the essentials in such a compact bag.
The two front pockets are small, but the bottom one is perfect for pens/keys and the top hold my feminine products just perfectly.
The large main pocket holds small wallet, phone, chapsticks, keys, lotion and a small hand sanitizer bottle. I think it’s just the right size. I mentioned previously that it’s been hard for me to lose the huge mom bag that I carried for years when the kids were small, but I’ve finally gotten what I need to carry down to fit in a smaller bag. And I’m loving the freedom of not carrying all the things.
