I’ve sold the Very Hungry Caterpillar Bag in Etsy and have since then received queries on whether more are available in my store. This Very Hungry Caterpillar Bag is a lunch tote produced from leftover fabrics from Eponine’s quilt. It’s really the cutest fabric collection ever! What a wonderful collection for all fans of the Very Hungry Caterpillar classic by Eric Carle!
So, when my BFF ranted about how the Very Hungry Caterpillar Bag was sold in such a short period of time and how she missed the opportunity to own one, I decided to come up with a new design for her using patchwork squares from the Very Hungry Caterpillar fabric collection instead.
Oh, how I love the colours on this new tote bag!
Sharing some photos from my sewing process. I enjoyed every moment of my creation!

The design of this Very Hungry Caterpillar Bag looks complicated but it’s really quite an easy weekend project and can be whipped up in a couple of hours. I really should be putting together some tutorials soon to share with all my readers. But first, need to find time and prioritise in the midst of my crafting, blogging, juggling a full time job and coaching Eponine for her PSLE all at the same time! LOL
