Do not lace the awning corner back on until the glue has set up completely.
How to sew a rip in an awning.
You can either use waterproof glue or sew each patch on.
Begin by stitching around the edges of the rectangle so that there is room on all sides of the tear.
Set your board up under the tear before you get started and flatten the fabric.
Follow the same procedure as for rips in the fabric body cutting your repair fabric long enough and wide enough to extend beyond the rip.
Glue it in place from the underside pressing it well.
Once the rectangle patch is securely attached to the awning then you will want to carefully stitch the edges of the gash to the newly attached fabric.
Place a board or a clean flat surface under the tear to keep the canvas flat.
Once you have the fabric you ll want to sew the path on the underside.
These are adequate stitches but not the strongest.
When you take on fabric awning repair and reinforcing the seams you should use a cross or saddle stitch.
Draw the edges of the rip as close together as you can.
Most awning fabric uses a single or double stitch to seal the seam.
