I had a couple of parachutes donated to me that are in need of a little TLC. Both have some holes from ejection charges, some pretty small, others a bit larger. One chute has a fairly big (3"x4" or so) hole right on the outside edge. I had thought to get some ripstop fabric to sew patches but wanted to make sure this was a good idea. My sewing skills are good enough to hem jeans and shirts and basics like that. I think I'd be able to do a decent job of patching. My wife is a good seamstress and her mom, grandma and aunt are downright awesome so I do have assistance if needed.
