Lay your motifs out in this pattern, and stitch together.
Assembly:
Create all of your motifs. Lay them out in the pattern pictured here, and stitch them together, by placing 2 motifs at a time, with right sides together, and using your preferred method of joining. For the model, I slip stitched through the BLO of each motif to join them. Place 1 double layer motif in the center, and stitch 1 single layer motif to each of 5 sides. Stitch the single layer motifs together, on the side that touches another motif.

Fold each side motif in half, and stitch together.
After all front side pieces are stitched together, place the second double layer motif on top of the first one, with right sides together. Fold single motifs in half to meet the double layer motif, one at a time, and stitch together, where sides meet.
Once all pieces are sewn together, weave in ends, and turn bag right side out. Stitch your handle in place, by sewing one end in the ch 2 space at the top of each side (Red hexi, and Purple hexi in the model picture). Weave in all ends, and your bag is done.
I only used about half of each skein in the package, leaving enough yarn to make a second bag!
