The Canvas Bleecker bags are a nice line of bags and they rehab well. I have the Canvas Bleecker Flap and it was very dirty and badly stained with red wine when I bought it.

I really put that poor bag through a lot - including 2 trips through the washer - and it came out great, see pic below. They are lovely bags for summer.

Canvas Bleecker Flap; 6114, beige and camel with silver hardware, 1999; Made in the USA (Salvation Army $12)

Do a search of the identification thread with marketing tote for Hyacinth and she posted a catalogue pic a ways back.
Mine, sigh, was a late night bid on my 7" tablet. My critical thinking skills were further dulled by the fact it was NYC bag. It is mocha, but with alot of staining seen in the light of day! But the dark stains blend with the mocha lol. It will make a great working breed for toting this and that. And I got it for about $32 shipped. And if I get tired of it, I know I can *gift* it to my (ex-hippie Coach loving ) sister.

Speaking of stains, if you were to cover an ink spot under the flap of courier pouch, which of the varsity patches would suit the character of the bag the best? I see them on the factory online site, I'm not sure how to link to pictures of them. My courier is a light tan color, maybe honey? The spots are small and the sticker will only be seen when I open the bag. I have been trying to decide for days. I have another vintage bag I want to put a few on too, but I just have no idea which ones to order or how many to get. Also I wish I could get the bunny or the emoji but they don't seem to sell them anywhere.

I only see stickers and pins on the FOS, is that what you are looking for? I have only seen leather and fabric patches already appliqued to bags and other products at the outlet, but not available for sale - otherwise I would have bought a bunny patch!

I was tempted by this bunny and emoji patch scarf at the outlet last weeked but I left it behind.

It's not coach, but if you seach online and sites like Etsy for sew-on and iron-on patches you will see a variety of styles and sizes.

I have not investigated how to get my hands on individual tea roses, but I think that would be pretty. They were selling them for $15 each if you had a craftsperson put it on in store, but only on specific styles. I also like the bunny!

Oh yeah I actually meant the stickers. The ones that are leather and permanent. I *think*they did have some bunny ones online that sold out straight away a few factory online sales back. I have asked at my outlet and they're hoping they'll get them in but don't know when. I did get some pins but they're not going to be that useful except as like charms or on straps, not useful for covering spots.

Individual tea roses would be so awesome!

I think I need to polyvore the stickers somehow to figure out which ones would look cool on which bags before I order. That or just order a bunch and return what I don't want later.

The Star sticker looks discreet, would the color work with your bag?
