Ok...Here is a good, and very easy plan to execute.

Step 1: Invite a friend, or make one friend to a birthday party. If you live in a town, where mysteriously there aren't any friends to be had/made, invite a relative.
Step 2: Recieve the standard amount of $20 birthday money from Friend.
Step 3: Buy yourself a bag, get lavers with the money you said you were saving up, and shred. No more need for free things from modified.

Hey Zack,

In general, like you, other footbag players don't usually have extra money laying around. A lot of us are pretty broke, so people probably won't react well to someone we don't know asking for things for free, costing us money.

Next time you should try making a post saying something like "I don't have any money or way of ordering fabric online, what should I do if I want to start stitching?" And someone will probably say something like "Since you're just starting, try using another kind of fabric for practice. A lot of people do that." And you'll use an old sweatshirt or another kind of slightly thick, cheap scrap fabric from your local fabric store.

Or maybe someone will give you fabric for free. Who knows?

[Iâ€™m moving this thread to the Bags and Equipment section since it belongs there.]

You should still use old fabric for your first couple thirty twos. Get the stitching pattern down and work at consistent sticth length and stuff like that. Practice bags.
