I've taken a little while to take these pictures, but here's a picture of my two new Marco bags from Germany. One is a normal sized Marco bag, and the other, a mini mini that he made for me for novelty. :D I love them both. Yes! MORE PINK FOOTBAGS!!

Image

The bags are both quite soft because of Marco's stitching style. Filled about half-way and weighing around 40g, I think the normal marco will break in well.

that is one TINY!!!!!!!! bag, are they both the same weight or is one lighter/heavier than the other? They both look good though.

I don't know whether that mini Marco bag is playable or not because I didn't have the luxury to feel it in my hands, but lesh has made super extramini bags that are beyond novelty.

That's a AA battery for size comparison, and a lesh standard on the right. That is small. She's now in Tom's hands, and he's loving every minute of her. :)

hm.... I don't know, but I bought this suede here:

Is this material called facile or I'm wrong?:)
I'm making bag's now with facile and with amaretto, optional.
The mahhkohh's bags are really tiny and soft. I played one of his bag today, it's very playable, I like it!)[/quote]

My collection at the request of Chris Balch.

Missing is my precious Hania bag that I left in my coat pocket during this photo shoot. :?

The sweet shred bags I got from Tom and Peng sit snugly at the first row. They're beautiful in person! The pink/blue/black pony bag is from Tom Mosher and the Dada bag is from Peng. And the blue and white crochet bag is from Lon Smith's grandma! :o

The crochet bag from his grandma is sweet! It's much smaller than regular crochets, and it's pretty heavy with aquarium rocks I think. She can make awesome kickysack/shred bags! I recommend them alot.
