Yes!! Can't wait to hold that bag in my hands, Jozef!!! :D

This is my new one:

(I think this photo is better :wink: )
51.5grs

I know, that most of you don't like Paisley, but I think it's a super hexes-colour to combine with a thick pents-colour.

Lapis is pretty supple, so I doubt its that thick.

Paisely has a tendency to fall apart, but in my recent visit to the Cornell Jam this year I played with a very good Paisely bag made by Mosher, I think. It looked pretty good, and played pretty well.

I think you just need to prepare the material for sewing beforehand, so that it becomes a functional facile to use for footbag. :)

Btw, Alf, your stitching is becoming really solid. I like how this recent bag came out.

try to make sure your gather, stitch size, stitch depth(the distance from the edge of the fabric), and number of stitches per side of each pentagon are equal. Your bleed holes look nice and uniform. Just gotta get those pents to shapen up.

How about cropping and resizing those pictures for those of us with less than ginormous screens?

Honestly, I wanna say this to everyone who posts pictures like this.

BTW adminbot, how about just changing the setting on phpBB to autoresize to fit pictures within the browser parameters?

The orange and black is the new Munster Mini, and it's next to the OG Munster Mini.

I'm totally going to sew the reverse of that color combo sometime. It looks so sick! Cameo and Eclipse, right? :)
