MaterialsAs much fabric as you need to cover your chosen area.•Equipment•Sewing machine•Pins•Measuring tape•Ruler•Fabric markers•Scissors• HooksInstructions1. Measure and plot the area you want to cover. Check what surfaces you want yoursail to join as this will determine what hooks you need. Secure your hooks tightly asthey will hold your shade sail tight. We were working with wood so the hooks justscrewed in2. Once you have your fabric, lay it out. You will more than likely be working with a bigpiece of material so you'll need a lot of space. Mark out your sail with measuring tapeand fabric markers.3. Cut your triangle from the material.4. Fold your hemline and pin it in place.5. Clear space around your sewing machine and get sewing! Follow the hem and sewall the edges.6. Set the sail aside and cut strips from your excess material. Fold the strips in halflengthwise and sew the join. This is your inside out connector loop! Turn it inside outso the seam is on the inside. Then cut to the desired length (this will depend on howfar your fabric edge is from its support.)7. Sew the loops to the points of your sail. They need to be sturdy so be generouswith your stitching.8. Place your loops over your hooks and your shade sail is ready to go! Easy to wash,easy to put up or take down and easy to move.Additional Notes (Benefits):This is a super light weight shade sail that won't handle all weather conditions. But it isperfect for long hot summers when heavy shade sails just don't cut it.How To Make Your Own Shade Sail. (2011, February 4).
