Crochet Chiq

There is no right way to do this... I just laid out the squares and sewed them together one by one. I used red yarn and a darning ( yarn) needle to sew them. ALWAYS sew with the right sides facing each other. When you are done your bag should look like this... the blue will be folded and sewn together after the bag is lined. This part is my least favorite part and can seem to take longer than it should but hang in there and keep with it. Be sure to knot and weave in all you ends. When you are done with the bag be sure to trim any left over ends.
