My coworker is retiring after 28 years (I've been working with her for 14). This is the Martha Stewart reversible tote. I embroidered a Dolly Mama design I purchased from Embroidables on it, I'm giving it to her just for fun.

Great tote. Really like the embroidery as well as fabric choices.

She should be thrilled.

When I ask this question, please understand that I'm still on my first cup of coffee. How do you carry this tote? Does the longer strap go over a shoulder? I'm sorry to be so dense this morning, I'm sure that as soon as you tell me my dim lightbulb will turn on. That embroidery is so cute!

By the way, my mother had that very same cat clock in the kitchen when I was growing up!

Great gift, cute, AND practical.

CarrieAnne 06-20-2010 06:01 AM

Aw, great gift!

Just a guess - longer strap over shoulder, shorter strap with thumb of the hand on that side resting through it. Much like I carry a purse or tote anyhow, that'd be pretty ingenious!

I wanted to ask the very same question! Thank you for asking it.

I love it! Longer strap goes thru smaller strap like a hobo bag.

You feed the longer strap through the loop of the shorter strap and voila!
