Marmalade has a tendency for turning faded and brown on concrete and dirt.

Nice half-bag, fool. Your stitching reminds of Jochen Bauer's. :) (edit: I'm dyslexic... :? -Way)

Awesome bags everyone! Especially Lotus' bag (nice...) :P

Design improvements :

Post by Hobit »

Yeah i took your suggestions from my last post and tried to improve the
design . Its the same exact tile/panel size but i reduced my gather to almost none , inorder to straighten out the lines . I rushed a little on this one so im
personaly not thrilled with its outcome . I will improve the more i make .

Glad you liked it this time . The Diamonds are finaly starting to pop better ?!

I don't know about popping better, but I do want to ask: are there any seams exposed? Places where the thread is showing?

You might want to try doing the "back-stitch" sewing method for straighter looking seams. It takes way more effort, and adds an extra row of stitches in a way, but it makes the seams more straight and secure. I think Daryl Genz and Louis Rinowski can help you with that.

Hobit, your design looks sick but it's something wrong with it, I don't know what. I hope the 3rd one will be awesome!

Hey! I won that bag in Texas a few years back. Its really broken-in now and still kicks ass! Mad propz on this one

Image
Here it is now.


And here's a new 20 Panel from me:
Image
20 Panels, Hawaii Blue/Flash red. 40grams, low gather.
Im not sure what to call the color pattern, but the top and bottom are solid, and the middle 'band' is alternating colors.
Shreddable without break-in.
