Been slacking on stitching lately so I stitched a bag today. 60 grams, little smaller than golf ball.

can you send me a link to the template or something please

mahhkohh · Post by **mahhkohh** » 01 Nov 2011 02:19

uhm... dont think there is an online template. and my template does not quiete work the way i want, so i dont have a final template... but its not that hard to make some for yourself. if you think about it you will come up with a template yourself. just think 92 panels minus 60 minihexes

2 bags i made for david castillo. first one to realize you can have any pattern on demo-bags

and a bag i want to show. i did not make it. chinsens girlfriend made it. she is a crazy lady! her mini bags are the shit! really, i have never seen someone who can stitch so small bags. this one here is completely shred-ready. i had sessions with it... 92 panels + 90 spikes = 182 pieces footbag in mini format

Just use the shape and instructions I posted up as a starting point. If you use the side lengths I recommended you will come up with a nicely sized bag.
It's just the same as any other bag in that you have to make all of the stitched side lengths the same.
I also shared a quick way to make templates, that won't kill you to make, or re-make if they're the wrong size.

As Marco said, there's no online copy of this template to be found ready to use. You just have to give it a go using what has already been given to you.
*Nobody gave me a template or tips on the star-bag, I just took the initiative to make one and find out.

ps. Marco, that 92 is something else. She must have tiny fingers to stitch such small pieces!

thats the thing! if you want to stitch a bag then you musst make yourself a template!

i think her fingers are normal, but she is a watchmaker, guess that explains her paitience with tiny stuff

Marco, your big bags just look so plump and clean ... I still want one every time they pop up somewhere

.

And Chinsen's girlfriend is indeed a patient and skilled stitcher

... damn I love creative bags like this, and the stitchers who bring them to life!!

ps: my D. Starbag arrived in the post today ... it's the red/green/blue star one

took the 42p. bag idea and used it on an 8panel bag, what you get is a 20 panel bag

gathered too tightly, but overall this could be a nice twist to the regular bags

mahhkohh · Post by **mahhkohh** » 01 Nov 2011 14:03

ok, this one makes 4 bags in one day. dont know what went wrong today

i made the left bag in helsinki this summer. now i made him an evil twin. just because the bag is so super sweet

basicly everyone that saw it liked it so far, lets hope the best

mahhkohh · Post by **mahhkohh** » 02 Nov 2011 15:33

lets see how many bags i can post up here untill someone else interupts my run

i got asked to do a mini bag for a friend. here it is. i guess i may be taking orders for mini bags from now on again. i may switch to a 2 stitch version tho... not sure yet. lets see how this one comes out

lotus · Post by **lotus** » 02 Nov 2011 17:59

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit's MARCO's PAGE ...

.

That alternate 20-panel design looks interesting ... could end up a bit cube shaped I'm guessing, but perhaps not!? I really like how the patterned thin panels stand out so well against the solid red ... nice looking bag!

And I'm always a sucker for minis

nice Domination Marco!!

here are some experiments I've done

2 Stitch, actually I always disliked the look of those, but this one is not too bad

new template I've tried, little too much gather for my taste

huuuuge 14, looks eggy but it isn't

mahhkohh · Post by **mahhkohh** » 04 Nov 2011 11:34

Im completely with you on the 2 stitch subject. They indeed look strange. But they work... That is what matters after all.

10 bags on one side would have been cool, here is #9 for this site.

another mini, this one is for me to Check out the break in and filling and stuff.
