Beginner Treasure Bags

Tomorrow is the very first meeting of a crochet group I started locally called Hooked on Crochet.  A lot of people that plan to attend are absolute beginners and I needed a pattern that I felt anyone could do on their first day of crochet.

My daughter reminded me of the treasure bags I used to make for her and her friends growing up and I think she picked the right project!
