Cheezus, that's really good looking for your first bag and a 32 panel, no less. My first 32 turned out really small as well and my first 12 panel turned out huge.

I would say, especially with a 2-stitch, up the template size quite a bit.
I find a good size for my 2's is 1.7 mm for both hexes and pents, with about a 40% on the short sides. keep at it!!!

Heres my second footbag, i'm pretty satisfied with this one except i used too fine of sand and a few spots sort of leak.... hopefully the third will be better... I used actual suede on this one and it was a world of diff.
This ones still i tiny bit smaller than a golf ball so i'm hoping this next one will be a lil bit bigger...
