I've been a bit lazy uploading a few of these: I'll start with the oldest first I guess.
This is my practice 92. Made way back in March from my Large juggling ball template:

These juggling balls I made for myself after having fun juggling 3 footbags.
Golf ball size, 60g, but crammed full of tiny plasitc beads:

Now my EleMENTAL. Made from the pieces from a 20p elemental mini, and thin microsuede pents. (I guess the original seed was Lotus suggesting I might like to open one up to see the stitching style) Then totally inspired by Wasabi.

And finally, my first full USL bags. THese are all heading to Jamieson Hickingbotham who so kindly gave me 16 colours, almost 2 whole yards in exchange for some footbags I made for him from it.
#1 Was unsure how much 'bite' to put into the stitching. Used a bit too much, so this bag feels fuller than it is.

#2 2-stitch. Got the bite about right for this.

#3 The best 32 of the lot. Hybrid of some suuper soft, green and thin red micro. Looks almost like glow in the dark... I'm unsude what the colour is called but it's magic. I used less bite again and subsequently this bag is so soft and mushy.

#4 A 42p design I have been imagining for some time now, but not had enough colours. There are 4 swirls of orange, white, blue and yellow. Leopard print for the rest.
I've never seen this pattern before on here...

The 3 32's would be mini's I guess, slightly smaller than a golfball.
The 42 is golf ball sized, and all weigh in ~60g.

AMAZING. I want to try that 42-pattern out.

A little oblong, but microsuede pents are just really hard to work with. :/
I also made these two beauties:

I'll be stitching more bags in the future. Been thinking about making a 26-panel bag and a "secret project" that I hope follows through.

"Footbag can be pretty frustrating when it's supposed to be fun. I was partly driven by this forum - practice, practice, practice... As that is true, I think someone can be too focused on progressing and training that they miss the fun aspect of it." - Bander87

Nice 42! I'll have to give that a go some time! Is it even all the way round? Ie. each pent has the 5 different colours.?
I didn't like making a 26p. The bag came out very cube shaped because 18 of the panels are squares. They're pretty simple cuz you can makre them just like a 32, exept I found more fiddly to tension
