My dear neighbor has a toddler with a food allergy that requires her to carry an epi-pen. She asked for a bag very similar to what she currently uses but with insulation to hopefully keep it cooler and a dedicated area for the two epi-pens. This is the Rayna Sling enlarged to 115%.
I left off the “wings” and just angled the webbing at 60 degrees to the back piece. For the insulation I used Insul-Bright on the main body and gussets.
The mesh pocket has a velcro closure for the epi-pens and the slip pocket is for her wallet.
Fortunately I was able to find matching fabric, webbing and hardware! Shakira at Shak’s Fabrics was so nice to send me photos of webbing options with the matching exterior fabric.
At this enlarged size, my iPhone 15 Pro Max fits nicely in the outside pocket and it doesn’t look too big on my smaller frame. Lol, I am matching the bag today!
