I can't believe you stitched the 92 like that!!!
i started by making 12 seperate flowers/stars from the 12 pents/60 little hexes.
then each big hex has 3 stars around it. i did it this way for gathering purposes as well. props, looks really nice.

hooray for soccerclub bags, i allready made hansa rostock, hsv and vfb for an order

looks good.

brian, i stitch my 92 that same exact way brad does, i just gather at the end, i would die if iÂ´d gather on the go, that would make the small hexes even smaller.... craziness

Brian the way you stitch yours sounds so much more practical, but I just based how to stitch mine around how I normaly make a 32 panel!

Oh by the way Brian, is that silver material you use theatrical suede or something like that? I think I found some at JoAnn's but I'm not completely sure. There is a much larger selection of interesting materials since the last time I was there!

I'm going to put a serious hurtin on the amount of panels left and hopefully have it done today or on Christmas!

Number 18, named "Sylvester". Was originally going to trade this with Bear, but I'm not satisfied with how I had to gather so much. After some use, Zach and I have learned that the gold fabric will loosen up a lot and practically turn it into a new bag. I gathered a lot to compensate for it's later transformation.

Merry Christmas modified!
This is a four panel a made for a friend for Christmas

Well I would've been working on my 92 panel and had it done by now if I wouldn't have made a new template so I could use my new filler!

Here's the result! It came out way too small,(possible mini pattern?!) but I have already made a bigger template and am going to test it out here AFTER the 92 is done!

Is it wrong to say that I like this bag?

mmmm, a whole bunch of tasty bags!!!
i decided to make a christmas bag yesterday and proceeded to finish it early this morning, I have to keep it in the fridge because this bag is H O T

Merry Christmas Stitchers!

Is the green on that green grape?

brianbear · Post by **brianbear** » 26 Dec 2010 13:55

NOT green grape (that is really light colored) it is a long discontinued fabric.
i believe it is active green, and the red is also a discontinued cinnabar fabric.
i have some small pieces thanks to emily and fletcher

and the yellow amaretta thanks to marco.

Isn't active green an ultra suede soft color? http://www.fieldsfabricsonline.com/Ultr ... p_388.html

brianbear · Post by **brianbear** » 26 Dec 2010 14:59
