Made my first bag...

Post by Champ »

I made my first bag yesterday, it's a piece of crap lol. But it works alright. I stitched up some materials I found around the house, and filled it with pebbles that would go in a fish tank (works surprisingly well). It's a six panel. Here it is:

And here it is on a CD case for size:

Again, it's not very pretty lol. But next time I'm gonna get some better material (some kind of suede) and make a 12 or 14 panel bag, and hopefully have a better filling (metal?).

For my first bag it probably wouldn't even look that good haha. Point is you made it and you should be proud to kick with it. You could check the For Sale section. There's metal filler for sale in there

lol After a few kicks, the material got a hole in it. Not the most durable bag, I would say. lol I just threw it out, next time will be a new start.
