Bengali Embroidery Sampler Tote Bag
A working tote that celebrates the language of stitch
This hand-embroidered tote features a sampler-style design, inspired by traditional embroidery practice cloths where stitches are tested, named, and refined. A variety of motifs are stitched in vibrant color, each labeled in Bengali script, creating a piece that feels both instructional and expressive.
The base cloth is hand-woven cotton, giving the bag a soft but sturdy structure and subtle texture. With a generous gusset and room for an A4 (8.3 x 11.7 inches) notebook, it’s well-suited for daily use—whether as a project bag, book tote, or market companion.
