Review on 👜 Large Riviera Crochet Tote Bag by Katie Bobzien

I was glad to get this because I only prefer a black handbag but I wanted something unique and cute for spring and summer. I have another Sak bag and I really like it. Good quality and style. So my question is, is this a really big Sak bag? The reason I'm asking is because the stitching on the lining is awful. I have used this bag twice and found that in the large bag things fall out of the lining and get lost between the lining and the bag. Instead of returning it (a hassle) I sewed the lining on so the bag could actually hold things. Please test the lining first through the whole bag before you want to use it. Very disappointed and I'm not a very good seamstress. 😉
