I ordered the pink patchwork because the bright colors looked fresh and spring-like. Imagine my surprise when my bag arrived and the colors look like the bag sat out in the sun all summer. Very, very washed out madras plaid of pinks, blues, and whites. not a bright color on there--nothing like the picture on the web page. If you like a more subdued palette, this is the bag for you. If you are looking for a pop of color, keep looking.
I bought this bag to use on our new sailboat. I didn't have it monogrammed but I wished I had because I just placed an order yesterday for the smaller and larger bag! With my initials, of course!
Husbands, this is a great gift. My Wife loves this tote bag. She needed something durable and to match many different colors of clothing. I also purchased the pink patchwork for her, since she loved this one so much.
