Kelly Bryden from Brit + Co. shows us how she re-created running belts with her free sewing DIY. Kelly explains that the key to making these colorful running bands stay in place, is to use high-quality, wide width Velcro. Wide hook and loop tape (Velcro) provides plenty of surface area for Velcro to stay together holding your belongings securely. See how Kelly sewed these wonderful athletic bands to carry your phone and cash/cards.
