Just completed another bag for this machine .Its not perfect but anything is better than those grey replacements. Its made from heavy duty Calico dyed brown [in the washer] the stripes are done with a gold felt paint pen [don't panic guys there's a paper bag in there]

Anthony, that replica Hoover 119 bag is BEAUTIFUL! Truly a work of art.
Have you ever considered making replacement outer bags as a side hobby? Made to order of course. With your talents, I bet you would have many interested collectors wanting you to make bags for their machines! Give it some thought. |

That bag is absolutely gorgeous. It's as if you created a stencil modeled after the original bag lol. |

Here's what an original Hoover Model 700 bag looks like. The lettering is bright orange. |
