How to Repair Canvas

If a tear or a rip happens to your canvas, whether a tote bag, a boat cover, awning or some other canvas item, you can fix it with just a few simple steps. Canvas repair is simple enough to tackle yourself.

Test the Canvas

Before you go to the trouble of canvas repair, check out the fabric to make sure it’s worth fixing. Sun and elements will take their toll on canvas fabric over time, and the material will fray, fade and become thin. Grasp the canvas tightly in both hands with your hands spaced about six inches apart and pull sharply. If the canvas tears easily, it’s best to replace it instead of repairing it.

Gather Materials

If you decide to repair the canvas, get a piece of matching canvas for a patch and a matching piece of backing fabric that won’t fray. You’ll also need heavy polyester thread for stitching, a sturdy needle for hand sewing and a roll of double-sided sticky tape to hold the patches in place while you sew.

Patching the Tear

Cut the piece of replacement canvas and backing fabrics so they are four inches wider and longer than the tear. Cut strips of the double-sided sticky tape to fit around the perimeter of both pieces of fabric, and affix the sticky tape strips to the undersides of both pieces. Position the canvas patch over the tear on the top side and the backing fabric patch under the tear on the under side, and press both pieces firmly into place.

Thread the needle with the polyester thread, pulling it to make a double strand for extra strength. Tie a knot in the ends of the thread. Stitch around the edge of the patch, making sure the thread goes through the top patch, the canvas and the backing patch. Take small and even stitches, positing them about one-eighth inch from the edge of the patch. When you reach your starting point, make a knot and clip off the excess thread.

No-Sew Fabric Repair

If your tear is only an inch or two in length, consider using an adhesive-backed patch instead of sewing on a patch. These patches are quick to apply, and they generally work well.

Clean the fabric well and allow it to dry if necessary. Most adhesive patches require that you prep the canvas with alcohol pad. Remove the adhesive backing and position the pad directly over the tear, making sure the patch extends out from the tear on all sides.

Liquid Adhesive

You might also try a liquid adhesive to repair canvas tears. Make sure the canvas is clean, and then position the canvas on a work surface so the tear is accessible. Place a sheet of paper under the canvas to protect your work surface. Position both sides of the fabric together, and apply the liquid adhesive along the tear to seal the two sides together. Allow the adhesive to dry according to manufacturer instructions.

Canva is a browser-based graphic design tool that lets you create presentations similar to the ones you can design in Microsoft PowerPoint. If you’ve made a presentation in Canva but you want to save it as a PowerPoint document, you can easily save the whole presentation or just some individual slides. In this article, we’ll talk you through the process step-by-step.

• If you don't need a PowerPoint, you can also save Canva slides as a PDF or JPEG.

• For example, if you used any fonts in Canva that aren’t saved to your computer, you may need to download and install those fonts to get them to show up in PowerPoint.
• Keep in mind that you won’t be able to save animated elements from Canva to PowerPoint unless you download the slide as an MP4 video. Try creating your basic design in Canva, then adding animations in PowerPoint .
• Charts are another element that might not make the transition from Canva to PowerPoint. You may need to recreate your charts in PowerPoint.
