I am very excited to see my art printed on these various styles of tote bags! Today I put four different kinds in the Whatcom Art Market to trial. Each design is unique and beautiful! I will post each one separately.
First is an origami tote. I have never seen a bag like this – It starts as a large square of rich fabric imprinted with my design called Purple Hibiscus Butterfly. The handle is sturdy and easy to adjust or remove.
While we call it the Origami tote, you can fold this origami crepe cloth into a tote bag, or use it as an impromptu picnic blanket, scarf, or the most beautiful present wrapping. It would make an amazing Easter basket! That’s the beauty of it!

intricate details created by scanography makes for a truly beautiful design,

texture. This design was created in
