1st attempt at sewing, ever.
Functionaly it turned out great, fit and finish is "OK" for a 1st sewing project.
1.1 ripstop, 3.7 Climasheild combat, perimeter sewn, 1.5" grossgrain tubes all around, I see no need for the shock cord in the end tunnels, everything looks snug.
This looks way beter than Strung2Tight's
v impressive! looking to try that out myself...
I always maintain that unless you want to manufacture commercially the functional result is the only result that really matters. Looks come with practice and are nothing but gravy. Great job.
edit: There are only two kinds of people who are going to look critically at DIY stitches.
1) Those who are jealous of the accomplishment but afraid to try it themselves.
2) Those who are good enough to help you improve just by looking... and do.
The first aren't worth listening to. The second are the best resources you can have.

I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.
"Bless you child, when you set out to thread a needle don't hold the thread still and fetch the needle up to it; hold the needle still and poke the thread at it; that's the way a woman most always does, but a man always does t'other way."
