great lookin bag zeb. and donovon, is that first one the bag you showed me at grass? that was a really groovy bag. can't wait to see the new generation of bear bags, as well as a 92 from matt. i'm working on a 92 as well, but it'll be sort of a pet project and low on my priority list, so maybe in a couple weeks i'll have some pics.

First footbag I've ever made -- microsuede fabric stitched with white upholstery thread and a glover's needle. Melted the knots and filled the bag with copper-coated lead shot (50 grams or so).

That looks great for your 1st 32!! props
12 stars, 20 circle-esque, it didn't turn out how I envisioned, but plays extremely well, the stars are soo puffy and floppy. Anyways, i doubt i'll ever make another cause they are kinda ugly:

very cool stars, brian.. i have the feeling if you altered the angles on the star panels a little bit, they wouldnt be so bunched up... but way to be inventive! i vote that you keep trying!

You should have another go at the star 32, Brian, but loosen up on the gather.

Plaid Lavers. Two Large 32s. Ultra loose gather, heavy. Left sold to Drew Martin and the right one is a keeper.

Image

They're as big as Carol Wedemeyer bags. Maybe a tad bit smaller.

Bag 22

Post by garygargan »

Bag 22 - New pattern and template for me, slightly larger leaving it "floppylicious" at 60 grams. Does anyone have a name for this color pattern, otherwise I'm personally going to call this my Radiation pattern.

it's called the Radiation pattern ;)

seriously, it's been called that for years. the first footbag I bought from a stitcher had this pattern, and that was in 2001 or something like that.

Thanks Matt, that make's it easy to remember! It's a really sweet pattern to look at. The bag in question has been donated to the personal kick stash, and it's goooood.

i got to session with the waylon bag that went to drew martin yesterday. it was certainly soft, and very well sewn. the first 4 stitch i've seen in person. it was floppy, but not to a flaw. i enjoyed it :)

92 update: everything's ready to roll, just gotta thread my needle and assemble this huge pile of panels i cut. pics will be posted when i finish it.

Nice, GG -- sweet lookin' bag!

I'm stoked to see how your 92 comes out, Will. Pixoritdidn'thappen.

In other news, I just ordered a few different colors of USL from Field's. Up until now I've been learning with some "Microsuede" from a local fabric store. It's on now. 8)
