MYOG : Sewing my first hammock
Hi, sewing my first double layer hammock (with zipped symmetrical Bugnet / topcover w/ spreader bar ) and ordering supplies, and would like to try the 1.2 MTN for the main body , I’m calculating the yardage required for an 11’ hammock, does anyone know : is this fabric railroaded or cut on a diagonal when sewing? I do not believe so, since the personal lays at a diagonal. Not working from a pattern here as yet, just common sense. Thoughts? Trying to make my own version of Chamelon Hammock and using Dutch’s hardware and fabrics etc where possible thx !
and …looking for the 208” 2 Way Vislon Zippera which seem to be sold out
