At first I was like wow that's a lot of space for hooks but then realizing I have more than enough hooks to fill it up (and look pretty) I love it. It was smaller than I had expected, however, I am able to always fit a kit and all my accessories (pins, eyes, scissors, etc). For the people who said you can't fit the instruction cards -the pocket on the front of the bag is PERFECT for this. I have quite a few in there, but even with just one I was not worried at all that it would fall out. I love that I can just grab this and always have a project to work on and everything that I may need OR I can put it in my Pierre tote to have all the accessories I need. The size is perfect to pop in the tote.
