You force me to give you feedback on your latest bag and then tell me i'm wrong and it's because I suck that I don't like the bag, not that bag's fault ;) (Directed at Toby)

when you ask someone to try a bag you just made. First thing they try is a ridiculasly hard string, which they drop. They give the bag back to you and tell you the bag is rolley, and then you tell them they suck.

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

.. you have 2-3mm calluses on your index and thumb tips
.. there are bits of fabric all over your house
.. there are panels all over your house
.. you stitch while waiting for meals at restaurants
.. you own 25 or so 'test' bags

I will have lots to contribute to this thread. :)

I`m addicted too

Post by Alejandro » 23 Aug 2006 07:32

You are addicted if...

1. When your fingers hurts if aren`t stitching
2. Every paper can become an excelent pattern surface
3. All your friends have a bag made for you.
4. all day you think: What is the best fill?, what can I change to improve my bags?
5. you can stitch in a train, in a bus, in an office... waiting in a bank
6. You are searching all day potentials trades.

You wonder if they'll allow you to have BB's/Lead Shot at school so you can stitch in class.

The airport security stops to give you a body check for putting your stitching kit in your carrying case.

When you find a way to reduce the average flange width on a 4-hole-pent bag by 10% without touching the stitch space to flange ratio.

Not very understandable scribbled working:

Note: Only useful if you already have short 1st and 6th stitch spaces on the hex cus you want to have tight bleed holes.
