Yep, just google pellets LLC. I would reccomend the 1.6 mm conditioned stainless steel, works great.

Was stitching at a furious pace this weekend - made six 32 panels and three 14s. All of them are for sale and I will probably have more for the PSU Jamps this upcoming weekend. Lemme know (PM) if you guys want em. The purple-yellow blur bag is sick in person because the yellow is highlighter colored and really pops against the purple. Keep on stitching - lets get some more pics in this thread!

I also sent this batch out to Dragonfly last week:

Just finished a new bag, 60.4 grams about the size of a golf ball, sorry I didn't have one for comparison.Image if anyone wants to give me any pointers or some advice that'd be helpful. Hoping to start selling bags because I'm saving for a car, thanks!!! :D also thanks to ilovecoheed and brianbear for the tips on getting a better pattern. I might take a better picture when I get home because that's the last panel that I took the pic of.

Lookin good man! Keep that shit up and those bad boys will be selling in no time. That just motivated me to finish the 32 I've been workin on for the last few days. Saffron and burnt orange is gonna be a killer combo, I can feel it haha. I'll post pics when I get the chance.

Sweet man! looking forward to seeing it! Also I don't know if its just me, but 60 grams feels a little bit heavy... Is weight just more of a preference kind of thing, or more like you get used to heavier bags after using them a lot...? This is the first bag I've stitched using a scale, so my previous bags have been a little bit too light... Thanks! :D

It's definitely a preference thing. To me, it seems heavier bags set straighter and are a little bit more controllable.

Made a few bags, all are available if people want to buy. The gold-red-blue blur pattern is incredibly soft as the red is amaretta.

Made a few over the past 2 weeks.

Image
Black Radiation with Purple centers, 66.6 grams, new template, turned out a bit bigger than a golf ball.

Image
USS Verde Pents, USL Black Hex, 66.6g

Tried swirls for the first time.
Image
USL Black and Sandy, 66.6g, pretty mushy.

Image
USL Flash red, Sunshine yellow, and Black, 66.6g, also quite mushy.

Image
USL Sunshine yellow and the light blue. USS Burnt Orange and teal. 66.6g, I'm definitely keeping this one.

How is sunshine yellow as a fabric? Is it comparable to tulip?

Compared to tulip, I really can't say, but the sunshine and petit pois bearbag I have is amazing. Strong colors, vibrant, and very choice from the get go.

Made a 92 panel as a graduation gift for Nick Polini (my roommate and person who taught me how to stitch a year ago). I believe this is the first time this pattern has been done on a 92 panel. Had some fun with it and made a video along the way.
