Hmm, yea kind of like that stuff that you put on a baseball glove when you first get it to break it in. I got this stuff it was like an oil you work in, and then i would put a baseball in the mid, rap it up with a rubber band and throw it on top of the vents in my house to break it in, maybe ...

My stitching is fairly straight i believe, i focus on keeping it straight and evenly spaced, the picture kind of makes it look like its not but i took it apart alittle and it looks decent, maybe i had too much gather there?

the hexs are about 1/16th of an inch bigger than the pents, it may just be an inconsistent sewing depth, by the end of the bag i was getting more and more consistent, and i will try alittle more gather, i think i would like it alittle poofier. As far as size what do you think, im using about .85in ...

Also when sewing do you put a stitch between the hexagons short sides, or just leave them open for ...
