The Nooga Convertible Hip Bag sewing pattern + video
The Nooga convertible hip bag was designed to be worn around your waist, worn as a sling, or as a crossbody. We love a versatile pattern and a bag that can be worn in different ways.
The unique angled slip pocket is perfect for holding your phone – it’s easy to access yet also keeps it snug inside when not in use. There is a zipper pocket on the other side with the option to make it a “hidden” zipper if preferred. Inside the bag there is a 6-card slot panel and an internal zipper pocket.
The side tabs help it stay snug around your body when wearing it.
The pattern also provides bonus instructions on how to turn the Nooga into a wristlet. Great options on this pattern! Be inspired to sew with the slideshow of images for this pattern below.
