Reinforcements
Use matching thread.
Sew the reinforcements onto the back of
the kite skin. Use a Zig zag stitch. Look
at the samples, pictures, and Diagram1
for correct placement and the side to
sew. Reinforcements C and E will be
sewn in place
after
the wings and body
are sewn together.
Part 1. (of 4 Parts) Wings: Sew A, B,
and I onto the wings. Make a right and a
left wing. Sew H on the wings. The
center of H is 10.5 inches / 26.6cm from
the inner edge. Straight stitch the outer edge. It will be covered with the edge binding and the top
edge will be sewn as you edge bind. It is helpful later if you position a piece of tape with a mark
on it, pointing to the center of H.
Note: Sewing all
edges is not necessary.
