CD25 sail cover

Post by VaCD25 »

Decided to make a new sail cover, already had Sailrite machine, so why not..I purchased some sunbrella and matching thread and got to work. Used old sail cover as a pattern.
So far it's been pretty easy. But I will say handling all this fabic is challenging. Getting it all lined up and keeping it straight in the machine has been hardest part..

Nice work! Canvas work is something I have never tried.
