Benefits of technology

[0010]Through the use of the present invention, a person who uses a carrying device may easily and efficiently provide ornamentation to the carrying device. This ornamentation may easily be changed without unnecessary diminishing of the integrity of the carrying device, which in turn will help to satisfy a person's desire to change how he or she expresses himself or herself through his or her carrying device.

Problems solved by technology

Because people retain and reuse their carrying devices for months if not years, they frequently spend a significant amount of time picking out the carrying device that they believe is best for them.
Many persons will, however, find that over time they tire of carrying a bag that has an unchanged appearance.
Unfortunately, this type of change can be time consuming and expensive and is not easily performed with the frequency with which a person who likes to change how he or she expresses himself or herself would like.
However, this too has its limits, because the removal of patches can be time-consuming, and the act of sewing causes a person to put multiple holes in the carrying device, which may be undesirable.
This can weaken the integrity of the carrying device.
