I have been surfing for some instruction books on canvas sewing. I have found several in the $20 range. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can get a couple of GOOD ones, or free sites where I can get this info for free.
I know nothing is going to do like the actual experience, but I just hate to take $$$ worth of materials and end up with an expensive dog tent or birdcage cover.
Also, where is a supplier of Singer 155 attatchments? A friend of mine used to use white strips to do the edges, and there was an attachment that rolled the strip to make a nice looking white edge. What's that called?
If I HAD to have a small box of attachments to do specific things to sew canvas awnings, what should I have in that box.
Got my Sunbrella fabric sample book yesterday, and am going to take the rest of my welding tools to my new house and set up my shop. Am looking forward to making some "stuff".
I did this for a few years with another fellow, who did the canvas part. I did the frames. I was a contractor. Between the two of us, we did lots of awnings in Las Vegas, some of which are still up after 17 (sheesh) years now.
Now, I want to dress up a Southwest Indian Desert style home I bought.
Thanks in advance for the help. I have the other answers archived in a sewing folder, but at the moment, they're in another state. I'll be there after Sunday, and can filter through them for more info.
