My non-stop collection

Hello, collectors, and community greetings. I commented to mipiano@mipiano that I don't have a collection like hers,Tote bags. I was thinking it must be connected to Hive or Blockchain. But when I was reading other members posts I realized I have something to present in the community.
Yesterday I went through the cupboards yes I put them together in one suitable bag so you can see them they have some wrinkles on. I didn't bother to iron them because they were again in their mother's womb (I mean in the biggest bag).

This bag is a memory of Easton(Boston) and my husband's parents they are no longer with us and the family house has been sold. this bag reminds me of the places I was walking and visiting with family.

In India, this is called a Shabnam bag. it's handmade using a special weaving technique and crafted by a specific community. After completing my education, I began my medical practice in a small village. I often used this bag to carry my papers and the medicine I delivered to patients. Although it was a long time ago, I have many good and bad memories associated with this bag from that time.

In the past, our society placed little value on daughters, often neglecting them in various fields such as education, art, and sports. Girls were considered a burden to their parents and were often deprived of love, education, and respect. However, times have changed, and now at least 70% of women are self-dependent and are treated with respect in India.

Many years ago, one shop that sold wedding attire made a bag inscribed with a heartfelt poem in Hindi about daughters. A voice against the common social norms, the message of this poem is very touching, showing respect for young women. I have kept it to use at ladies' gatherings and seminars in India.it is worn out now but I want to save the poem. The bag is very old but has historical and cultural value.

This traveling bag was a birthday gift from a friend. It is very handy and practical, during travel I kept my valuable items in it. But if necessary I filled it with food, water, a jacket, or a shawl.

Typical Indian handicraft. I found it here in Norway at a flea market. Strange!

My simple creation is called Batava.In the beginning, I purchased some Batik cloth and made a few of them to sell but quickly lost interest in making them. I saved the last one for myself.

This cooler bag is the last bag I got from my mother-in-law. Good for carrying cool things while on short travels. I like the cool turtle design.
