Just finished the set of cornhole bags for DH. Now for it to just warm up so we can play!

Nice job

how nice

lol! I had to look just to see what a corn hole bag is ;-)

Interesting, why are they called corn hole bags?

Those are so cool. Great job.

Same here! Do you throw them through holes in a board? score points? etc.

What type of game do you play with these corn bags?Are they for children? pab

Lovely

I just finished 24 bags...3 grndsons,ages 22 to 26 I tod them I would make the bags,had a lot of heave cotton duck given to me. My fingers are sore from turning them.. I refused to make cases for them they can use fabric paint or Pens to do the football logos... Now if I get a please, with kisses and hugs that my sway me to make the cases.. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Then Maybe Not :wink: BillsBonBon

Being from New England, I had to go to Wikapedia to find out what the heck cornhold bags were used for. What are the demensions of these bags and what are they filled with. Sounds like a fun game for summer parties! Hope someone can give the answer.

You cut 2 squares of material, preferable a heavy cotton duck, 7inches by 7 inches per bag.. you need 8 bags per game, so that is 16 squares of 7' by 7"...seam allowance is 1/4 inch. put 2... 7 inch squares together sew with the seam allowance leave abt. 2 inches on one end so you can turn the bag inside out, so the seams are inside then the hole is used to put Corn inside then whipstitched close.. I was told my one of my grandsons, Popcorn kernals is regulation, now I didn't know they even had a set of standards for this game. :roll: :lol: :lol: I am going to Sams this week to pick up a sack of popcorn fill them,close them with the whipstitch then send it all to Florida. Now you can make FootBall logo or whatever sport you want cases for them as she has done... But 24 is a lot that is 3 games...3 Grndsons. So I figured they could improvise,Fabric paint or markers..Right :thumbup: :lol: :lol: My sister made her family abt 2 yrs ago and they used cracked corn, They bags drew moisture and mildew set in. Had to throw it all away. But MY GRNDSON said popcorn kernals woud not do that. OK WE WiLL SEE!!!

Here's a website that shows the game. All the guys plays this around here instead of horseshoes or washers now. It's basically like those two games. And the competition is who has the nicest boards made up, who has the best bean bags....you name it, it's gotta be a guy thing. So I made these for DH, maybe he will be the 'envy' of the guys!

Now I know why My grndson wanted the cases, OK maybe I can do that for him. He was just telling me how He had painted them....LOL!!! I didn't know it was a Guy thing..Thank you for informing me. BillsBonBon

OMG!! I have 3 grndsons I made 3 sets, that is 24 bags I have to put in cases, then there is the sibling thing as they are Brothers. Can't make on set any nicer than the other. :lol:
