I have gone with this pattern ,
.
I dropped into Anchor Supplies at Ripley at the weekend hoping to get the white canvas 12x12 inners none to be seen i did however manage to pick up this sheet for £10 ,,,Happy days ,
This morning spread it out and started cutting ,
Removed all the outside stuff that i dont need ,
Then went to work ..
That that all cut out , got to be said theres a lot of fabric involved as its almost five meters by three ,
Hopefully next weekend set up in the garden and get sewing
