Luckily I have a friend named Google who told me all about it. I learned the card comes in two sizes and a new one is released each year. So I designed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoesbagboutique.com\/category_236\/Mah-Jongg-card-and-coin-purse-The-Slide.htm\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">the Slide<\/span><\/a>, and made sure it would hold the larger size card.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zoesbagboutique.com\/images\/slidewithcardscomparisonjpg.jpg\" alt=\"card and coin pouch for mah jongg\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The next customer request I received jump started my focus on the mahjong equipment itself. I learned that some players liked to buy more than one set of the tiles. The tiles are fascinating little objects with a great feel in the hand and interesting suits of characters on them. The back of the tiles can have a variety of designs, which can make then appealing.\u00a0 <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thoughtco.com\/explanation-of-mahjong-tiles-687561\">You can find a description of the meaning of the tiles here<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>When you have more than one set you might just need the perfect bag to hold, and even reflect, the tiles design.

It has proven to be very popular.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/2-cranes-l-zini.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1505\" src=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/2-cranes-l-zini.jpg\" alt=\"flat bottom bag for mahjong tiles\" width=\"550\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/2-cranes-l-zini.jpg 550w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/2-cranes-l-zini-300x177.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/P1170015-copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1506\" src=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/P1170015-copy.jpg\" alt=\"Flat bottom bag for mahjong tiles\" width=\"600\" height=\"403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/P1170015-copy.jpg 800w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/P1170015-copy-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/P1170015-copy-768x516.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then I learned of an issue that was in need of a solution. Mahjong is played using racks for the tiles to sit on, similar to Scrabble. You can buy a set of tiles and racks and they tend to come in a hard case like a briefcase. The problem with this case, besides not being especially attractive, is that that the tiles all sit on a special ledge inside the case and you have to put them in one by one. Too much work!<\/p>\n<p>After a fair amount of design work I had the solution and a beautiful one it is, if I do say so. I designed a<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zoesbagboutique.com\/category_258\/Mah-jongg-Storage-Set-The-Tote-ster-and-Large-Zini.htm\"> soft sided open top tote which I call the tote-ster<\/a><\/span> that will hold the racks and the pushers for the tiles. It has a pocket inside for the above mentioned card. The tiles, now easily swept from the table into the large Zini, sit on top of the racks inside the tote-ster. Long handles allow the tote to be carried hands free on the shoulder.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tote-width-and-handle-length.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1542\" src=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tote-width-and-handle-length.jpg\" alt=\"soft sided tote for Mahjong racks\" width=\"794\" height=\"487\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tote-width-and-handle-length.jpg 794w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tote-width-and-handle-length-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tote-width-and-handle-length-768x471.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 794px) 100vw, 794px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/interior-tote.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1543\" src=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/interior-tote.jpg\" alt=\"Soft sided shoulder tote bag for mahjong racks and tiles\" width=\"597\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/interior-tote.jpg 597w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/interior-tote-300x163.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 597px) 100vw, 597px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/end-with-specs.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1544 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/end-with-specs-284x300.jpg\" alt=\"Tote bag for mahong tiles and racks\" width=\"284\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/end-with-specs-284x300.jpg 284w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/end-with-specs.jpg 567w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 284px) 100vw, 284px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/inside-pocket-mahjongg-tote-with-text-copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1545\" src=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/inside-pocket-mahjongg-tote-with-text-copy-300x251.jpg\" alt=\"tote bag for mahjong racks and tiles with pocket for card\" width=\"300\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/inside-pocket-mahjongg-tote-with-text-copy-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/inside-pocket-mahjongg-tote-with-text-copy.jpg 717w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/interior-tote-with-tiles-in-l-zini.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1547 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/interior-tote-with-tiles-in-l-zini.jpg\" alt=\"soft sided tote for mahjong racks and tiles with pocket for card\" width=\"640\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/interior-tote-with-tiles-in-l-zini.jpg 640w, https:\/\/zoesbagboutique.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/interior-tote-with-tiles-in-l-zini-300x152.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Then one more request came in.
