I read your story and looked at the picture of the bag. I busted out laughing. I had to tell my husband and we were both hysterical. Leave it to the honesty of children, your son was right, but I did not see it until you described it in your story.

Please, don't let such a negative meaning apply to such a beautiful piece of work. In case you didn't know...the original meaning of the swastika is this...
"The Swastika symbol has been used for thousands of years already in almost all human civilizations as a sign for good luck, protection, as a materialization of life and the changing seasons of the year. "
That an exact quote from
http://www.swastika-info.com/en/meaning.php/
the symbols of Buddah. Such a sad connotation has been allowed to deform such a beautiful original meaning, it is not right. Your design is absolutely beautiful and a true symbol of good luck. Please help education everyone that letting a negative overwhelm such a positive is unfair and unnecessary. I loved your design!!!
