Made my first bag cover...
...out of velveteeeeeeeeen an' lace trimmin' to go over my new 'roo skin bag. Kind of turned out a tad short so bag shows at the rear, although not as much in real life as appears in the pic, but no matter......

You might consider a "no plumbers crack" sealed back. Like this http://www.allmannerofcoverage.com/imag ... dback6.jpg
YES.. thats a Sponge Bob on a leather GHB cover. NO I am not trying to sell anything. I have for the most part given up on making bag covers for sale. Apparently velvet in any color but black.. and black but ony if its leather .. was not an ideal business model when selling bag covers primarily to GHB pipers.

Interesting. Actually, it was a toss-up between Black velvet and Purple. I like purple, evn Deep Purple, so I went with purple.Rockymtnpiper wrote: You might consider a "no plumbers crack" sealed back. Like this http://www.allmannerofcoverage.com/imag ... dback6.jpg

Just plain, but I'm considering adding 'Disco Stud' in silver studs on the outer side.djm wrote:So ... um ... just plain purple, is it? You couldn't have gone with, say, a nice zebra print, or maybe a holstein pattern? Nothing fancy, of course. No need to go whole hog like a leopard skin, or anything, but still ....

I take it you're referrring to the trimmings? KISS - Not good for everyone. Leo Rowsome's bag had this sort of trimmings (it's on one of his album covers), my first cover had the same trimmings -uilleannfinlander wrote:good for everything =K.I.S keep it simple......l
When it comes to Uilleann pipes, KIS is out

Thanks Joseph. I've always liked purple. Don't know what that's supposed to say about one's character though??Joseph E. Smith wrote:Looks nice David. Purple is a nice choice.
