This could be made using various fabrics to utilise different uses.
A Fat Quarter Bundle gives an option to use many different panel pieces.
1. Cut your fabric.
2. Now we have all pieces cut (1/4” seam allowance throughout)
Sew two bottom pieces of outer fabrics together, press seam open.
5. Fuse the interfacing onto the inside.
6. Fold in half outsides together and stitch up the two short edges.
7. Box the corners, using 5” side to side, mark and stitch.
8. Cut off corners leaving ¼". Repeat this process for Lining (except interfacing). Put to one side.
9. Handles-

15. Pin Handles in place.
16. Lay second Rim piece on top, right sides together and stitch along length.
17. Press seams open.
18. Stitch ends to form a ring.
19. Fold and Press, Top Stitch top handle edge and stitch close to raw edge to make easier when attaching.
20. Cover-
Right sides together, stitch each side, leaving 2” from the top each side.
21. Press seams open top to bottom, stitch each seam from top to bottom each side.
