This is another tote bag....test stitched these designs some time ago...added a few more designs and made into a bag. The pockets on the other side are from sick embroidery.

This tote bag is lively. I like your use of the small pockets on the back side. The designs used are very dainty/ feminine. Just beautiful.

Well done Shyam, the bag looks great. May I ask what you padded your straps with, they look quite solid? Love Chris

Don't worry about answering the question Shyam, I went down the questions and found out what you used. Love Chris
by Shyamala 03 Jun 2015
Chris......I used aquarium pipe....stitched the handles and inserted the pipe.....you can insert just a short piece for the grip alone or for the entire handle. Hugs....Shyam.
