Why We Love It

Evelyn looks stunning in a wide array of textiles! The unique side shaping showcases contrasting cork fabric, faux leather, or microsuede against designer canvas, cotton prints, or linens, giving you limitless opportunities to mix substrates and hardware finishes.

Coral and Olive Inspiration

  • Substrate Pairing: Combine floral quilting cotton, linen, or canvas with rich faux leather or cork on the handles, strap connectors, and accent panels.
  • Hardware Accents: Elevate your bag using Sallie Tomato 3/4" Style 3 Basic Hardware, 3/4" Grommet Strap Connectors, bag feet, and Chicago screws in nickel, gold, antique brass, gunmetal, or rose gold.
  • Professional Structure: Uses sew-in foam or ByAnnie's Soft and Stable combined with heavy stabilizer (like Craf-Tex) in the base for a crisp, stand-up silhouette.
  • Maker Coordinates: Pairs beautifully with #5 nylon coil zippers-by-the-yard (or 16" and 10" single-slide zippers), woven fusible interfacing (SF101), and 40wt polyester thread.
