WISJ Designs Frankie and Faye Fannypack

Buy the Frankie and Faye Fannypack sewing pattern from WISJ Designs. Frankie and Faye is a sewing pattern for a fully lined fannypack in two designs, each with a mini and maxi version. Frankie is your typical fannypack or bumbag: an oval shape at the bottom and a zipper in front. Faye is a somewhat more feminine, more rectangular shaped version with a front pocket option. The belt at the back can be attached through one long loop or two separate loops with snaps for removing the belt from the bag whenever you like.
