Introducing a sling bag with a unique design.
Pictures and Description
I made a half moon sling bag.
I was wondering what to name it.
It's not exactly a half moon...
My daughter thought of a banana, and I thought of an orange.
No one will be search for orange sling bag, I decided to call it half moon sling bag.
This bag has an attractive curved and diagonal bottom.
To make this shape, I modified it again and again,
and several pieces of A4 paper were cut.
After all the hard work, I ended up with a bag that I really like.
The zipper is at the back.
There is a front pocket for my cell phone.
I went to an amusement park with this bag and walked 30,000 steps.
I carried it around all day and found it to be really comfortable.
It's perfect for carrying a water bottle and going for exercise.
Amusement park set!
Try making a Mickey Mouse bucket hat too.
Materials
This is the front.
Woven Fusible Interfacing (or non-woven fusible interfacing, 2 oz), Outer, Lining
Check left and right carefully before cutting.
This pictures was taken from the wrong sides of the fabric.
This is the back.
This is the bottom.
I used non-woven fusible interfacing (4 oz) for the bag strap.
The 25mm poly webbing was the perfect length for me,
but I think it would be okay to make it 2~5cm (1~2in) longer.
Also prepare a seam ripper and nose pliers for magnetic buttons.
How to make
1. Attaching the interfacing.
2. Sew the outer and lining of the back right sides together.
3. Clip seam allowances diagonally and fold it so that the right side is visible.
4. After fixing the zipper, sew. Then the back is ready.
5. Sew the outer and lining of the pocket right sides together.
6. Fold the right side over and sew once more.
7. Install a magnetic button 2cm (¾in) away. (Video 04:33)

11. Sew the outer and lining of the flap right sides together.
(Leaving about 4mm of space at the top and an opening.)

leaving an opening.
15. Hang a 4cm (⅝in) poly webbing on the rectangle ring
and secure it between the outer fabric at the bottom of the bag.
