This is so cool. Looks like a good umbrella to use to walk the dog

It take some time but it not hard. You do a rolled hem on the bottom edge with a serger. Then sew the panels together. Then you do a overlock stitch over the seams to give it a finish look. Hand sew rib eyes on to the fabric points.

How cool. Love the material you use for this one. Now I wonder if I can find dogs & cats material to make a "it's raining cats & dogs". LOL. Thanks so much for sharing.
