This bag was created using a pattern from Uniquely Yours by Suzanne Cooper. I LOVE that book! The strap  is bead crochet. I got the pattern from bead-patterns.com  That is another favorite site of mine.

I taught myself bead embroidery. This is the first piece I did. I keep it in my purse for some spare cash. It is usually empty!

This bag created for a friend that is a Kindergarten teacher

I designed this bag for a friend that is a 1st grade teacher.

The butterfly has a 3D wing that is hard to see in this picture.

Another bead embroidery creation.
