Hey, I made one of those boxy bags just last Friday. But I used Dragon(knit)fly's directions here.
That one is lined and has a handle.

Knowing that you love orange (as do I) I thought you'd like to know that over at Toast and Tables, Sarah has posted a love piece about incorporating orange into your table setting. I fell in love. :) http://toastandtables.blogspot.com/2008/04/orange-spruce-using-oranges-in-your.html
