    ripped mesh

    okay folks, so as i posted a few days ago the tabs that hold the bug net on my BG tore out of the mesh. So I have some big gaping holes in the mesh. I want to patch them up and maybe put in a structural ridge line.

    So how do I got about patching up the holes?

    Take a piece of mesh slightly larger in size than the torn area, square works best. Sew it around the outside of the patch piece and again close to the damaged area. You do the outside stitching to attach the patch and the sewing closest to the rip to make it somewhat smooth and to prevent the rip from going any further.
