final stiching question
How does someone do the final stitches of a footbag because when i do the final stiches it looks like the inside of a bag becuase i know you have to do the stiches from the inside then when your done you have to turn it inside out so the stiches are in the bag.

Once you get to your final seam, do not turn it outside
right. For your final seam, make your stitches very loose, so you
can pull the final seam apart and turn it right side out. Fill
it. If you make a bag with bleed holes, you can close it and fill
it through the holes.
To close it, push the edges of the seams in and pull it
closed. It may take a while to fully close, but eventually it
should close up and the seam will gather. If the needle doesn't
come out at a corner, push it back in naer where the thread came
out, and pull it back out at a corner. Pull the corner apart and
try to knot the thread as far downin the corner as possible. Do 2
or three knots. Then push the needle back down through the knots
and pull it out anywhere. Cut the thread, and work the extra into
the bag. You have made a 12 panel bag
