Love the beaded easter bag.
This would look great with the easter poncho's I am making for my nieces.
thanks for sharing!

Very cute! I think I will have to stitch up a couple these for my girls. Thanks again Suzie for another great pattern. ^_^
Thank you for posting this. I have made two now for my daughter, one smaller, due to me not remembering how to do a stitch correctly and one larger, not sure why, but as it grew, I added and had fun with it. She took the larger one to church tonight and was complimented...making a different one to go with a different outfit now. :) Thank you so much for posting these, you gave me great gift ideas in the past, and more I want to try. You really are a blessing. :)
