first off, amazing bag. Secondly, you don't use the lockstitch around the bleedholes? It looks like you do. Great great work

Post by **Zac Miley** » 07 Sep 2008 08:07

I'm pretty sure it's a light pink.

Dear Jay Boychuk:

damn you, your recent bags look even better than the ones you gave me.

Boychuck, those pics are so helpful for a starter outer stitcher, i've seen a couple like that, but not many. it really helps me to see what im doing wrong. i wish more people would do that occasionally

Wow!! Beautiful bag Matt!! And it's not a 2-stitch, lol! Love the color combo on it too!

ARGH! That bag is what I think may be the best a Matt Cross bag could ever be. Is that country cream/flash red? If so, I swear whoever buys that bag will keel over,

SO good. Did everyone take a quick glance at how each stitch looks incredible?

Green and red 12/8 bag is a prize for ECFC. The other one is a keeper.

awesome bags, cale. love the solids... I've still never done one. stitch placement looks really nice, too

it's been a while

my most recent

This is what my stitching looks like. What can I do to improve the looks of my bags especially between two hexes?

The pictures are blurry, but I'll do my best to help you out John. Actually, Jay Boychuck just posted a very good example of what you should do to improve your stitching:

As for bleedhole stitches, or the first and last stitches on the hexagon side, the important step you should always consider is keeping each and every bleedhole stitch symmetrically even to the one that is adjacent to it (forming the bleedhole). By keeping these stitches even against the short side of the hexagon panel you can avoid the panels from folding over.

Tried making a 12 panel. Didnt have any idea what size template i would need so this was pretty much a test. Turned out nice but a little big.

Thank you, Waylon, for helping me learn to make the 12 -panel

...not sure what the material i used was but it kind of felt like microsuede haha

Cale, your bags look awesome!

Here are my two newest Dorshbags. The first one is 10/10 Blur for Fjodor and the second one is three colored Dada bag for a friend of mine.
