I ordered some Everglow and had to wait for it to be released before it could be sent. I received it the other day from Stash Fabrics. One of the reasons I wanted this fabric was to make an EPPic bag.
The fabrics used in the examples on Etsy aren’t that appealing, but when I saw one posted in the Tula Pink group on FB, it really changed my view. It was made by Strawberry Quiltcake and shown on IG.
The EPPic Bag is an EPP case. You can buy the PDF downloadable pattern from Chasing Tigers. I actually bought the EPPic bundle, mostly because it wasn’t that much more and I thought the smaller bags might be useful. Keep in mind that I have not made this pattern so I can’t comment on the directions. I do know that it is simply a pattern. Unlike the Sew Sweetness patterns it does not come with SVG files, however there is a video referenced in the pattern to help with part of the construction.
All of this is to say that I bought some Everglow in order to make one of these. I was planning to buy some anyway. The project and the inspiration spurred me on. I am not going to use the same fabric in the same places in the pattern. I may, actually, use some of my Philip Jacobs flowers for the exterior and Everglow on the inside. We’ll have to see.
I was also selective about the fabrics I bought. I didn’t buy the whole line. I only bought the prints I thought I would use.
You can see at the bottom two new Heather Bailey fabrics as well. They will probably go on my shelf of backing fabrics.
