Warning!! DO NOT USE AQUA FACILE!!

Post by mosher »

Warning to all footbag stitchers, the facile color "AQUA" from fieldsfabrics is VERY BAD and falls apart!!

Do not use it!!

There is something 'different' about the aqua, unlike the other faciles it has a visible grain of sorts on the back.

Stear clear of this color!

I'm pretty sure it's the ultrasuede variety.

Meh, just use it to practice your stitching on. The bags look really pretty, but aren't very sturdy to shred. I have a few aqua bags that people have given me that I've just kept mint.

yeah actually i needed a pin cushion so when that bag is dead i can rip out the blind stich and jam it full of polypellets and such. it is a little large so it should work pretty well.

Yeah, that happened to the bag I made for Derrick of the KFM, I am glad I found this out before making a zillion bags with it.

I think the only other bag I used it on was the one I sent to -Shredder in Hawaii and his completely fell apart. I felt so bad that I mailed him a new bag to replace the one with shitty aqua.

I guess that is life!
