Sewing - blue star casserole carrier with a checkered inside

I was on a roll and found in my stash from my Mom this star square.  I added a checkered blue fabric all the way around to make it 22".  I added a batting I made from scraps from by Mom then stitched all the way around the star square to keep them together.  I added a checkered red fabric for the inside and stitched them together leaving a gap so I could turn it inside out.   I added two rows of stitching to the edge once I pushed out the corners.  I then stitched just inside the star in red thread and then added a row of decorative stitching all the way around the star square. Next, I  added a red handle (22") and two loops (6") to the inside.  Works well with outside as well and is perfect for the inside.  It is nice to be finishing some of my Mom's projects!!  Therese
