Around $10-15 USD would be the cheapest I think a bag should go. $20-25 is a standard price for a bag if you're extremely confident in your stitching and filler.

We probably won't sell them until we're confident in everything. I'll get pics of them though for you guys.

Or is she still researching the 20 or so years of foobag stitching experimentation?

I'm thinking about something... and there is a very high chance it has something to do with footbag.

Sweet. I think perseverance and patience are the most important attributes by far for a good bag stitcher. Initial stitching skill is just a bonus.

i dont see how someone who doesnt footbag could make a good footbag if they dont know what kind of style they (the people using the bag) would like.

maybe you should get your mom a pair of shoes and get her into shredding. and tell her you cant be too old to footbag... scott davidson's wife footbags and shes got a kid.

also i dont think you should even ask how much she should sell the bags if she hasnt made her first one yet. i bet she could go to .org and sell her first ones but i dont think any decent footbagger would buy a first bag off someone who doesnt footbag...

...im not dissing your mom either. i wish my mom would take some kind of interest in my hobbies so then when i try to explain something shes not completely clueless.

Step-Mom.

She couldn't footbag if she tried.

I doubt she'd be able to make them consistently.
