Will Be Making Awnings For Sale Soon

Inventory is underway. Pictured are some roll ends, of marine grade awning fabric, with only enough material left for just small awnings. This is the time of year, when I clear out the old awning fabric to make room for the new. One by one, I will turn each fabric remnant into a little awning. I will also be using up my leftover fringe and edge binding. I know some of you look forward to this annual event, so I am posting in advance. Have a sneak peek at the upcoming patterns, in anticipation of the Vintage Trailer Awnings by Kristi that will be for sale. I will update patterns as inventory continues. dfoster@bellsouth.net

Images of Vintage Trailer Awnings With Shock Poles for Lift

Over the years, I have made quite a few small arched vintage trailer awnings, designed to provide lift from underneath. Shock poles are inserted into the four pockets on the underside of the vintage trailer awning, arching the awning upward for extra height underneath and incline for rain run off. Some of these pictures are quite old, while others I have made more recently.
