"I absolutely adored sewing this little fanny pack! Don't be put off by not having a physical pattern - drafting the 3 main pieces yourself lets you customize it at every step, and it's actually really, really simple! I love the size this bag, and I LOVED how easy it was to customize it at every step (contrast topstitching, interesting zipper color choices, different fabrics for body and sides, the list goes on!). It's super beginner-friendly, but also super fun, without being too involved or time-sucking (I finished mine in an afternoon!). LOVE IT, already sewing one for bff, little bro, husband, coworker, etc - everyone wants one!"

"I used some black leftover canvas I had in my sewing room, I love how this turned out, and I use it every day now as I hate using bags over the shoulders as they are always in my way!
This pattern is a very easy sew, it has a few tricks when you do the corners, you just have to go slow on these, the rest is easy peasy.
Instructions are super easy to follow too, what I really love about Sarah Kristen’s patterns is using measurements, instead of pattern pieces and clogging your sewing area with paper!"

The Sarah Kirsten fennel fanny pack pattern is easy to follow. I’ve never made a structured bag before, and I’m extremely pleased with the process and the results. Besides her clear directions, her patterns have an extra zero wastes plus – there is no pattern to print out as all the dimensions are included in the cutting instructions (love this so much!). I made mind from reclaimed materials. I used a suede upholstery sample for the body and a belt for the strap, and some vintage zippers. Keys, phone, wallet – all perfectly fit in the sleek little pack to make travel easy and stylish.




The Chamomile Crop is designed to be a staple basic in your wardrobe — something to be dressed up or down, to serve as a base for layering on cool days, and worn sleeveless on warm days.
The crop version is fully French seamed and uses a wide, double rolled hem for a high quality tank top that feels beautiful next to your skin, thrives in normal wash machine cycles, and lasts for years.
The dress version has large, in seam pockets, flows in the wind, and has a beautiful 1” hem.
The crop pairs well with all your high waisted pants, skirts, and shorts and gives it a playful feel. The silhouette is thoughtfully designed to not flare at the waist but to hang straight down in a slim profile from your bust.
The Chamomile comes with two shoulder/neck views - Wide Shoulder and Narrow Shoulder. The Wide Shoulder has a higher front and back neckline, and lots of coverage on your shoulders. The Narrow Shoulder has a lower front and back neckline to let the sunshine hit you, and slim straps that favor the outer edge of your shoulders to perfectly hide your bra straps.
Simple, step-by-step illustrated instructions walk you through how to sew the French seams, the bias tape around the neckline and armholes, and the double rolled hem, and the pockets, and skirt gathering for the dress version.
This is a graded pattern that comes with a print at home, a US 36” copy shop version, and an A0 copy shop version.
Fabric notes: Works best with lightweight to midweight woven fabrics that have a good amount of drape such as sandwashed rayon or linen, linen and rayon blends, and homespun cotton.
