ok, so since todexon it ried too think of a way too make the panels puff out, i cant get it, i made a bag too test a way i thought might work, it did partially, so i make another one, and if it doesnt work then i make another and then give up :P

this bag is made for hackysneaker, its bigger than my ussuall bags, and also i messed around with the filler, so it may be heavier than someone would like, my scale broke, so i have too fill on feel

I have some bad new about my first bag, earlier today she popped a stitch :evil: , I'm gonna either take that panel off and re-stitch her, or take her all apart and start over. It's a shame, she was a nice bag to kick around.

Taking bags apart is a pain in the ass because then you have to basically destroy the work you've done and start over. I'd say just redo the pannel.

Taking them apart isn't worth it. You can't really salvage the panels becuase they already have all the holes in them. you could redue the stitch. or you could just stitch a new one and correct the mistake. i had a bag do that to me, and i realized what i did wrong and never did it again.

Not really a new bag per se, but I thought I would take some better pictures of my new Lewd Bag#3 for size comparison to the bag that started it all on the left, and golfball on the right. Definitely the same, if not a bit smaller, than an abshire a910 mini.

It's breaking in nicely. And my room needs better lighting (or I should just get a better camera).

Great job!

There is a way, but it is very tricky. It's also pretty hard to explain how to do it. What you do is you alter your stitch spaces for each stitch or hole and make them not line up properly. Here is crude drawing showing this done on a 4 stitch:

The result is gather without gathering. Here's an example of a 4 stitch per side bag made with this "artificial gather":

If you have made a 4 stitch before, you will have noticed that the panels never puff out with normal stitching.

I'm thinking about something... and there is a very high chance it has something to do with footbag.

toby, damn, you sould have posted me that secrect in a pm... :P i just put you up my msn, we need to chat about that, cause i think i halfway understand that, but not fully, and i might check it for my next bag... i wanted too try a 4 stiches bag anyway one day....

but the bag i make right now is kinda coming along fine, its usuall 6 stiches, but the corners are very very close, and the gather is realy tight, and it seams to work, i have it only halfway throu, but i think in the end it will have puffed up panels, i will send this one too a lucky tester, that has allready been choosen :P

Toby, do you gather tightly or loosely with the 4-stitch pattern?
