The idea from Evelyn from Harth-Pöllnitz:

I would like a shoulder bag made of green fabric with dog paw print in brown.
It should be for daily walking with dog. Fabric please very sturdy. I need many individual different sized compartments. Both with zipper and snap.
In addition, I need two nets on the right and left side in which you can fix 0.5 liter bottles. The belt should be adjustable.

Hello Evelyn
My name is Isabel and I would like to give you an offer for your idea.
For the bag I would propose we use green Canvas since it is sturdy and looks beautiful alternatively we could also use green suede. Please find attached for your reference.
As for the bag design I have attached one where we will add side pockets for the water bottle.
I have also attached 3 images for the dog paws let me know which one you love best!

Looking forward to having your thoughts and to making this bag for you.

Best regards
Isabel

Hi Evelyn

Trust well.

I am trying to design the bag and come up with the pattern but unfortunately am having a challenge with the German Language. I am not able to understand and interpret the full instructions. Any chance I can have this in English please.

I will really appreciate. Let me know.

Thanks

Hi Evelyn
Thanks for your patience and so sorry for my delay.
I have been having a big challenge with the dimensions. When I use the given dimensions the bag seems too Big and I am not able to get the 3 dimension of the bag.
Hence I would like us to see how best to adjust the measurements so It can work out.
Is it possible to send a photo of any bag that can give me a mental picture of how you want this bag to turn out.

My thinking is we distribute the pockets so the first and 2nd top zipper at the center of the drawing to be on the inside of the bag. While the Compartment for feeding the dog will be on the outer front side of the bag.

Please let' us work this together so I can get bag right.

Thanks so much.

Looking forward to your thoughts and inputs.

Best regards
Isabell

Perfect. Thanks. Great bag. I love it.
Is it possible to have a second Belt which is much longer than the first one of the picture.
I cross the belt over my chest when I walk with my dog.

Hey Evelyn
Wonderful! Am so happy you love it! This is very important to me.

Many many thanks.

Hello Evelyn,

My name is Noel Waiganjo, Local Operations manager, Nairobi. I'm currently reviewing the quality of your bag and whereas the craftmanship is excellent, I've noticed that the zip leading to the main pocket is quite small. It might be hard to carry some items i.e. notebooks. The zip is 17cm wide. I've shared a video demonstrating this. Is this okay with you? Kindly let us know and we'll make adjustments where necessary.

Regards,
Noel

Evelyn 22 Aug 2022 10:32 am

Hey Noel.

The length from the zipper is ok.
The bag can be sent off.

Love greetings

Evelyn

Isabell Mathenge 06 Sep 2022 9:24 am
Hi Evelyn

I regret to hear the bag was not good and expectations were not achieved.

I am willing to redo the bag for you as the bag need to be functional and one you will Love using.

Please direct me clearly on the aspects you would like me to improve or add from the way the bag is . This will help me tremendously.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Many Thanks
Isabell
