I love the look of this bag, BUT the very first time that I wore it, the clasp to the shoulder strap broke in two, and the bag dropped off of my shoulder. I think the workmanship on the bag is far superior to whatever the material is which the clasps are made of, and I was hoping to let people Ms. Quispe know that she may want to reconsider her source for those clasps. I will now mount a search for a matching clasp, so that I can continue to use the bag.

Maria Patishtan created a quite beautiful wool sling. The embroidery is colorful and unusual, and the woven wool is very thick and a nice natural color. I really love this sling and am so glad I purchased it from her. It will remind me of Mexico. I also purchased a couple more of her creations so please see my review of them.
