Now that I have a whole afternoon of sewing machine experience I'm branching out into bigger projects. You know, like making bike frame bags. 😉

LearnMYOG sells patterns (plus free ones) and videos talk you through how to sew all of the elements.

Six Rolling Wheels sells completed bags, their videos more meditative.

Here's a couple of free plans. Running belt would be a good one to try first, nothing extra just a simple belt for holding the phone. Maybe replace zipper with a tab of velcro, since I want to quickly grab/stow the phone to take photos.

I like how Morgan rigged the bag to snug in and clip to the back rack using tire levers. He has an earlier video of making the triangle frame bag, just learning as he goes.

Another DIY video, Salty Beard goes into more detail on how he designs and sews a fork bag. I like the “coffee bag" bottom design.
