I'm trying to square up material to make a hammock. Is there a trick to this?
I don't have enough room to lay a full 11' x 60" sheet of material on the floor, and I tried to fold it in half, but I don't have a square edge to start from. I was thinking of buying a 2" closet hanging rod, and suspending it from a wall so the material would hang straight. I've spent a couple of hours trying to get it right, but it's not working. Any ideas? I'd like to make a hammock in 1/2 hours time. I can sew it up pretty fast, but getting a square cut is tough. I have to make ten hammocks for friends, which is why I'm trying to find a way to get it done faster.
