Thank you! I definitely will just have to scale up my pattern a bit. I'm from Pittsburgh, PA

There is actually one other active player in Pittsburgh. Her name is Chrissy Fryer pips. You guys should try to meet up sometime. She could show you the basics and get you on your feet.

There is also State College, which is the USA's biggest footbag club. If you ever want to take a 2 hour trip down there, there is an amazing club there. I'm located near Philly, PA actually. So if you start going to footbag jams around the east coast, we're bound to meet each other at some point.

Still a bit smaller than i would like should i continue to scale up the pattern or would just increasing the short side of my hexes be more effective?

Wow, that looks really good for your second bag! Nice and even stitching. I would say scale up the entire template a bit. Increasing the short side would make your bleed holes bigger increasing the amount of filler that might leak out as you play with the bag. I suppose as long as they are small changes, it should work either way.

Brian: I allways keep the cut-off from my demobags, so I have huge pile of potential 92 panels around... I should just loose that pile with my next move... Maybe I feel obligated by that pile... :( 92 don't really sell good either :D
