Sew a Running and Exercise Belt

Have you stood by your New Year's resolution to live a more healthy lifestyle? You might enjoy this DIY sewing project to help you stay motivated with your fitness goals. Erin of SewBon shares an ingenious little sewing tutorial for this running belt. It holds an MP3 player or phone so you can have your hands free while you work out. Just pick up some spandex, nylon or athletic fabric (the same kind you'd use for swimsuit patterns), a zipper and fold-over elastic. If you're comfortable sewing a zipper, this easy sewing pattern should be no challenge to whip up in an afternoon.
