The idea from Dorit from Berlin:
The photo shows my current favorite handbag, which is washable, but unfortunately not weatherproof. It is about 32 cm wide, the bottom of the main pocket is about 14 cm deep, the other pockets are attached.
The customer's rating:
The bag is handmade very well and virtually the big sister of my favorite handbag - just as I wanted. DinA4 documents fit inside and there are very many great side pockets where I can store everything well. How high-quality material and workmanship do in the long run, time will tell, but I'm quite confident.
