It was one of twelve monthly covers for Liberty magazine. The editors judged the set too radical, and it was never published.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWright drew the circles with a T-square, triangle, and compass. The March Balloons tote bag gives that rejected cover a second life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Design That Kept Travelling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApprentices at Taliesin later copied the covers to practice drafting. Wright adapted March Balloons as a rug for his son David's house in Arizona around 1950.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFabrics from the Schumacher company followed in 1955. A design for paper became a pattern for rugs and textiles. This recycled foldable tote continues that journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and Storage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis March Balloons tote bag uses recycled GREEN CIRCLE fabric that is water-resistant. Hand washing preserves the coating. Machine washing at 86 degrees F \/ 30 degrees C is fine in a washing bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you are done, fold the Frank Lloyd Wright tote bag into its zippered pouch. Hang it by the handle or store it flat. Keep the geometric art tote out of long, direct sun to protect the print. Wipe the recycled foldable tote with a damp cloth between washes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisplay the March Balloons tote bag on a hook when you are home. Gift the Frank Lloyd Wright tote bag to a friend who loves museums. Pick the geometric art tote for your next gallery visit. The recycled foldable tote also makes a thoughtful present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Frank Lloyd Wright\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWright believed an architect should shape the whole environment. His designs included art glass, furniture, and lighting as well as buildings.
