It's supposed to be ROYGBIV, but the flash red turned pink on my camera. I guess it's the lighting. It's one of the few pattern bags I've done in a long time.

Nice Peng! Im trying to work out how to take good shots of footbags really close up, i have access to a better camera now but still cant get them to look good like yours!
Here is my effort though, featuring my latest bag:
Icecream!

One trick I learned from a camera enthusiast is to turn the camera onto Macro mode (the little flower icon) and zoom in with your optical zoom a little (this supposedly makes the macro fuzzy logic really focus on the object). Then zoom out until it's perfectly framed.
On my camera, I can press down the shoot button without fully depressing it to preview the shot. If it looks good, I push it down fully. This also ensures I don't shake the camera because macro mode requires a steady hand.
Your bags are looking very nice though.

First one in awhile, and it's actually decent, but weighs about 75 grams, which is too much for me.

So it took 10 bags (7 facile, 3 tshirt) to make a decent one

are you keeping to stitching them small
alf?
they are looking really good man ... keep 'em coming!!
next time you want one of mine, we can trade instead if you'd prefer

.
ian, your new 'icecream' bag looks awesome man ... it looks like your stitching style has taken a quantum leap in evolution ... saying that, it has been a while since i saw your bags though

thnx, to all of you, for the fast replies!!!!
I'm working on a more gathered one right now.
to Lotus:
these two are more like the size of your FLIGHT, but the new ones will be, as my old bags, more like the size of your MINI FREESTYLER.
trading would be nice

jerab-
such an interesting stitch you have. very consistent too!
First think about how to practice or don't bother practicing.

Jerab, this bag looks awesome and I think it will break-in really well!
I haven't been stitching for a long time but now it finally change. Here are some recent bags from Cod. Sorry for a photo quality but I had to take them with a camera in my cell phone. The left 32-panel goes to the player from Warsaw. The middle 2-panels go to some newbies from Polish forum. And finally the right 32-panel goes to Slovenia to Ales or Gregor.
