How to Sew a Running Waist Pouch or Belt

Nikkala from The Crafting Chicks shares her method for creating a running pouch worn as a belt around the waist in this free sewing tutorial. She opts for spandex due to its remarkable elasticity and comfort during wear and running. "The stretch of the spandex ensures the belt fits securely around the waist and keeps the contents close to your body to minimize bouncing." Spandex is noted for being stronger and more durable than natural rubber. Lycra fabric is also a great option for this sporty waist pouch.
