My partner, who lives far far away, will be receiving this tote bag. I cant tell you who she is and for those taking part, the guessing game continues.
My partner did not give a lot of specifics except that she liked modern, big, bold and bright colours. We all had a chance to add a photo mosaics to the flickr group to show our preferences in bag types, colours and designs, so I tried really hard to make a bag that she would like.

The moment I saw it, I knew I had to try and incorporate all of them, without cutting it up too much and not slice away the beautiful flowers and prints.
The body of the bag has batting between the layers, and the outside pockets are lined with a medium weight iron on interfacing for added stability.
