yo. I just stiched my first 32. the pents are black and the hexs are pink and its made out of facile. OK, the only flaws i had with the bag ( mybe you guys or girls could help me with) is with the bleed holes. I cant really explain it so i drew a diagram

and my other question is do you add tension as you go (give tension after every line sewn) or do you add tension after you sew all the hexs to the pent?
thax, oh and any experinced stitchers please feel free reply and help me out with this.

I havn't seen the pic yet, but props on making a 32.

I am by no means an 'experienced stitcher' but I can tell you what I do.

I do all my gathering at the end of each pentagon side and then sorta lock it in place.

I don't know what other people do.

so.. after each line or "side" of the pent add tension or add tension all at once after you sew all the hexs to the pent?
