    Fantastic All Purpose Bag!

    I love this bag. It is well made, spacious, quality fabric and great for my day to day. I can carry my lunch to work and then load it with odds and ends I pick up from the store. It is comfortable to wear on the shoulder. Buying more.

    Quickly’s become my favorite tote bag

    The small shop bag is my favorite bag to carry for a small picnic, for a short grocery run, or while going to a cafe and bringing a book or two. The cotton twill used in the bag is also extremely soft and hope that Tom Bihn can make more bags in this material.
