Last year's canopies look tired and faded but with a little effort and basic sewing skills you can create your own new canopy.
Difficulty: Moderate
Things You'll Need:1
Decide on the type of fabric that you will use for your new awning, you should take note of the available fabric widths as this will determine how much fabric you need.
2
Remove your canopy from the gazebo and carefully rip apart the seams using a seam ripper. The pieces of canopy will be used as your pattern for your new canopy.
3
Lay out the pieces of canopy flat, and lay closely together so that the pieces will fit within the width of your new canopy fabric. Then measure the total length to find out how many yards of new fabric you will buy.
4
Tip: Launder your canopy fabric to make sure it is pre shunk, to avoid future shrinkage. Look for a high-capacity washer and dryers at your local laundromat.
5
Iron the fabric first to remove wrinkles.
6
Lay out the pattern pieces on the fabric and pin them in place.
7
Cut the new fabric pieces.
8
Sew the pattern pieces together using an overlock sewing machine.
9
Make fasteners to attach your canopy to the gazebo by fastening the metal grommets to the canopy. First line the two pieces of the grommet up on either side of the fabric, then hammer them together.
10
Re-attach the canvas roof back on to your gazebo by tying it in place with the bungee cords and metal grommets.
