Utility Tote with Pockets & Compartments - Perfect Nurse, Teacher & Work Bag

I bought this for a friend. We both like to crochet and I have one just like this. She kept saying she needed one, so I got her one for her birthday. Needless to say, she uses hers the same way I use mine. Crochet projects.Many, many pockets inside and out. So many I couldn't fill them all. Plus it's huge inside. I have packed in mine around 5 large skiens of yarn, all of my tunisian crochet hooks, a regular hook carrying case, knitting needles...which I don't know how to use yet but maybe one day I'll learn,...buttons galore, 2 or 3 small skiens of my cotton yarn. About 3 different crochet projects...maybe more. I have a small notebook and pen in a pocket, .... so much more I can't remember.I originally bought it to carry to work...I'm a nurse....but it was a little too big for that. It's verysturdy and well made.

Very pretty yet utilitarian. This is my second daisy bag - a bigger size than my first one which I have owned for a few years and use as a regular purse quite often. This larger purse is for traveling - business and annual conventions (we like daisies). It is exactly as described - lightweight with plenty of pockets for my stuff to get lost in (why do I keep buying purses with so many inner pockets??) and yet it is sturdy enough to add a water bottle and umbrella in the side mesh pockets. It is NOT meant to carry a lot of heavy gear, but I lug my binder, iPad, keys (so many keys!), wallet, cosmetics, and slippers or sandals, and feel confident that the straps won't tear off. It is not going to last a lifetime, but it is not going to fall apart unless it's over-stuffed. I would like to defend the seller against the 1- and 2-star reviews complaining about the size and durability. The seller states it is POLYESTER ( not leather or aluminum!) and the dimensions are clearly provided in the description and comparison chart! There is also a choice of sizes. Is it overpriced? Yes, a little, but nowhere near as much as "signature" status bags, and it gets the job done. It is not fair to the seller if due diligence isn't the buyer's thing. Read, measure, and decide - simple.

I bought this for a HIGHLY UNUSUAL PURPOSE... However, I have not figured out a "good plan" yet to avoid injuring the bag bc it IS made so well! I bought this because it has loads of pockets, a zipper on top to keep everything contained inside and "less germy" with less exposure to outside air for my Trilogy 100 non-invasive ventilator for traveling. My goal is to add a grommet on the side for a place for the tubing to come out the side in case it needs to be used while in route, but I am afraid of damaging the bag until we have a clear plan of minimally invasive material cutting to add the grommet. (we haven’t figured out if we cut it, how to secure the material back to the grommet).I also would like to add a "luggage strap" to the side since the NIV is heavy.But overall, it will serve it's purpose (even if has to carry as shoulder strap) FAR BETTER than the trilogy strap that is too long for me (I'm short 5'1 and it hangs low making it awkward and even heavier - Trilogy weighs 11#). I've tried it in it already 1-2 x just around the house and the bottom felt like it would hold up and remain sturdy despite the heaviness of the NIV unit. It will be slightly tight to include all the extra respiratory equipment inside the bag, but I have plenty of pockets outside if need be too!!This is a VERY NICELY made tote bag with 13 pockets (5 inner, rest outer), good shoulder straps, very thick material and the zipper was a winner as most totes do not close on top (allowing all your stuff to get wet if it rains!).Like I said, I'm using it for very unusual purpose, but for all other needs-definitely meets/exceeds expectations of tote bags. I liked the styles of this bag as well. It was a tad darker than I expected, but hard to tell from pictures. I'm kind of glad though so it's not "too bright".

Love this tote! Holds alot of craft stuff! Has pockets inside and out. They have several patterns but this was my favorite. Very sturdy and good quality. Great for craft retreats or even a great travel bag for vacation. It was a little speedy for me but I very happy with it. I highly recommend it.

So I own a LOT of bags and am seemingly always on the quest for the perfect one. I'm also a teacher so I have to carry a lot of stuff, and have gone through a number of bags - they're either too small, or poorly organized, or with SO many pockets it's actually too hard to find anything. This one is perfect due to all the external pockets (I haven't had anything fall out but mostly put non-valuables here - lotion, hand sanitizer - plus quick access items like my keys) and internal slip pockets (I keep pens organized, chapstick, small notebooks, etc), and - because those inner pockets are right against the walls of the bag - there is plenty of space in the middle for my planner, my lunch, my grading, various clothes (sweatshirt, hat/scarf, etc depending on the weather). I've only had it for a month but I love it so far and it has no signs of wear; I plan on using it until it falls apart, which will hopefully be a long time from now. There is only one pattern available in the large size (at least on this listing) but it's pretty cute. I imagine the medium would work OK too if you have a bit less to carry; I liked how tall this one is. The bag itself is nice and lightweight so I have no problems hauling it around.The only thing I would change would be adding an internal zippered pocket for the super valuables (i.e. phone, wallet).

I bought this to tote my lunch, folders and everything else for work. Also used as an overnight bag. Really roomy and good quality. Great price too.
