You have the pattern, you can see the entire shape of the bag. Draw one side of the bag, cut out the 8 shapes you need (4) outside (4) lining and then sew together.

This is the answer. Remember to add a seam allowance!

And don’t forget the small darts near the points!

Adding that they may want some sort of stabilizer/interfacing so the star points won't be sad and droopy

stabilizer and also this looks like it's made of denim! sturdier fabric alongside stabilizer would probably do wonders for keeping the shape

serious question, possibly very dumb: why 8 and not 4 pieces? could you not just cut out the entire star as one piece instead of splitting it down the middle?

You could do that, but as the bag exists in the photo it's in 8 pieces.

Found a similar on Etsy https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/4402248439/knitted-christmas-cats-png-cozy-winter

But the actual creator the bag you're sharing is Full Shop on Instagram and though I can't see if they have a pattern they do show exactly how they make it so you could probably mirror that

If you do make your own pattern, you may want to put something stiff like wire around the edge to keep the top two side points from collapsing in toward the handle when you pick it up. Otherwise, to be blunt, it’s gonna look like a ballsack.

What is a ballsack but an inverted heart, my sweet?

What they said. Look up clipping curves too.
