Rain
Canopy Details
Now
secure the outer edges of the 8X10 canopy b_.-serging
or by sewing 1/2" hems as suggested by the
diagram and picture.Join the two panels together
along the central searr_ using the reinforced
flat felled seam shown in the diagram. Additional
help on suitable seams can be founc in most sewing
manuals or the sewing web sites listec earlier.
With up to five layers of fabric, the reinforcec
center seam is strong, while it neatly secures
the fabric edges from unraveling without the need
for hemming o-serging.
Pull-Tabs
Pull-tabs
for attaching the guidelines are made from one-inch
Grosgrain Nylon Ribbon (order from the same fabric
suppliers listed in the information box; choose
a color that accents your rain canopy material;
black always works). You will need four corner
pull-tabs, four edge pull-tabs, and two ridgeline
pull-tabs.
See
the earlier diagram for the correct position of
the pull-tabs. The eight corner and edge pull-tabs
should be two inches long, while the two ridgeline
tabs should be four inches long
Attach
each pull-tab by folding the ends together and
placing it on the rain canopy as shown in the
previous diagram; sew the three pieces together.
Leave a one-half-inch open loop on the outer end
of each pull-tab for attaching the guidelines.
Sew at least three reinforcing stitches when attaching
the longer ridgeline pull-tabs.order 24 inches).
Seal the cut ends of each pull-tab by melting
them slightly in a small flame.
