you have to just think about what you are doing. it may not come out to a perfect circumference but the way u make it sound you just keep stitching with out any thought that your makeing a ball.

yeah i stich it all at once. i've heard of making half and half then stiching it together. but i cant figure out how to do it.

take one pent--> stitch 5 hex around it.
take the second pent and sew it at one of the 5 hexes ........... you will have only one thing where you have to think : when you have no more hexes left and you have to take one hex from the "other" side of the bag.

it is not that hard - i hope you will get it soon. after the first time you got this feeling you will say "ahhhhhhhhh"

you may also want to mark your first pent with a marker on the inside.
This would be your "center pent".
Then just try to attach the other panels evenly around it
