I don't know how or what those kandi patterns that are actually used to make a bag. Like those square type things. What are they called and how do you make them?

the fastest way to make a purse or a bag in my opinion is start with a peyote stitch and just keep stitching on beads to it until you figure out the width and length you want for your bag. make 2 of those the same exact size. then make 2 more smaller for your sides. once you finish 4 large stitches then stitch all of them together to a connection dance

Well, I haven't made a bag yet but i'm working on it. They're called panels, and you make them by starting with a skeleton (that's how you start off peyotes *also called the base*). These bag panels are larger peyote stitches and there are tutorials on You-tube for basic peyote stitches,odds,evens,and Ginger-CandE even has a tutorial on how to make each panel and put them together for a bag.Hope i helped you at least a little bit.
