   3/8"x16' polypropylene
   2 yards of upholstery fabric or canvas* (to fit a small child)
   80mm stainless steel spring snap link (enough to support 220 pounds)
   3/16" stainless steel quick link (enough to support 220 pounds)
   drill with 3/8" drill bit

- Cut the Fabric

*Any type of upholstery grade fabric will work in this project. The fabric needs to be thick/heavy in order to sustain wear with repeated seating. In this project, a printed duck tablecloth was used for the hammock seat. Thick tableclothes are a great option to use for their versatile patterns and colors. They are also budget friendly. Mark a point about 7 inches to the left of the top right corner.


- Cut the fabric along the line.


Fold the full piece of fabric in half and lay it flat. Fold the canvas in half. Orient the folded edge to your left. If you cut the fabric on the long edge, you will have a deeper chair. Cutting the fabric on the short edge will give you a wider chair. Mark a point about 7 inches to the left of the top right corner


Starting with the straight sides on the top and bottom of the trapezoid, fold over the edge an inch and iron it down to keep it in place . Fold in the edges again one inch and press down with an iron, then pin them in place.

Fold in the corners of the long (diagonal) sides at a 90 degree angle. Fold in two inches and press all the way down the sides. Then, fold in again two inches, press, and stitch the fold twice in two parallel lines (top and bottom of folds) to reinforce it .
Make the Swing
Mark two holes at each end of the dowel, at 2” and 4”.

Mark two holes at each end of the dowel, at 2” and 4”. Drill through the holes using the 3/8" bit. Sand to remove any little burrs and/or splinters.  Paint the dowel (optional) and let it dry before the next step .
