All posts may contain affiliate links.

The Slimline Sling sewing pattern is a unisex sling bag from the designer Toriska. You’ll love the sleek unfussy lines of this simple sling bag, making it easier to sew and easier to wear.

It’s a handy bag that carries all of your essentials close to your body and works equally well on your front or back. Wear it on your back to keep your hands unencumbered or on your front to keep your things safe while commuting or traveling. The flat design keeps it close to your body for better security.

It has one main compartment, two outside zipper pockets, and a cell phone pocket. The Slimline Sling is intended to hold just the essentials, but providing 3 sizes means you can sew the right size depending on what you need to carry.

It was written for domestic or industrial machines, but some of the thick seams may push the limits of a domestic machine with thicker fabrics, so choose thinner fabrics (such as cotton) and webbing if you are worried about thick seams.

The pattern comes in two adult sizes and one kid size. The image below shows a comparison of the sizes. Perfect for every member of the family. This unfussy style is ideal for creating a bag your guy will wear too.
