Sewing Project: Old Sails

[JOHNMARDALL]

Dacron sails don't make good Bimini's an d awnings as the Dacron is degraded by ultraviolet light and if you're here in Florida or some other sunny place, falls apart after a season or two. We
give old sails to a local charity warehouse, the Resource Depot, that provides free project materials to school teachers. A similar organization may be near you.
