my 7th, i think its better than my 6th ... what do you think ?

Jdigges · Post by **Jdigges** » 21 Dec 2005 09:36

I think that looks muh rounder then your 6th. what material is that? it looks softer and lighter than facile

mahhkohh · Post by **mahhkohh** » 21 Dec 2005 09:48

yeah rounder,but to me the stiching itself doesnt look so good tho!but dont let that keep u from going on,take it as motivation.take more care for every stich,redo them if you dont feel happy with how they come out!a bag might take 7 hours than,but u will get better and faster with every try!keep going man!

for the moment, it takes me about 5 hours.

my fabric is multi suede (10$ / meter) i couldnt find any facile when i bought it, i didnt touch facile yet so i cant compare it. But its VERY soft. but anyway, im still try new things, so when ill be fixed, i thikn it will look great (if im stitching skills are good)

what helps a lot for stitching cleaner/faster is have a watch next to you and try to stitch on a pentagon in 10 min. x12 and it would only take an hour an 20 min to finish a bag. I tryed this with my last bag and it worked wonders. the last bag I stitched took me about 1:45 broken over 4 sessions. I could of stitched it quicker but i was really nit pickey about the outside cosmetic apearence.

there are 60 minutes in an hour dude, lol
12x10 minutes = 120 minutes = 2 hours

LoL.. i like to get on people's math to feel smart. that's a good pace for a precisely made bag, does that include cutting and tracing? post some pics

From left to right: broken in bag i made, unkicked bag i made, new bag i made today (i experimented with a new panel pattern, me gusta mucho, its the bag i made in 145 min.), inside out abshire bag, golf ball. I plan on sellling/trading soon, I almost have my stitching were i want it to be.

Why the inside out abshire?

It looks like entrails.

here's the bag I'm donating to the Chicago New Years Jam event.

That bag looks sweet Jake!!

shredzilla · Post by **shredzilla** » 22 Dec 2005 20:43

That's a killer lookin bag.

Dat · Post by **Dat** » 24 Dec 2005 04:46

This one came out a little funky. I stitched deep into the panels and gathered a lot. Reminds me of the everlasting gobstopper from the first Willy Wonka movie

Here are the 5 bags that I've made so far for sale at Rochester. Using my crappy cam once again to take the pic!

Cool looking bag Dat! I wanna hear how your bags play Chris!

Hmm, this is my 2nd PRACTICE bag. I barely know what I am doing, but its definatly better than my first.
Still too small, I sewed deep. Maybe one more practice bag and I'll buy some fabric and filler and then start working on higher panel bags.
