Soft top stitching repair for tight wads

Just wanted to report on how I repaired the stitching on my soft top for cheap. After searching I came up with the Speedy Stitcher sewing awl with the fine needle and a roll of coat and canvas thread from Wal-mart. For under $20 I was able to rethread the bad portions and not look like a patch job. It is slow and by hand, but I used the existing thread holes, it took an hour to restitch about 18 inches of my back window around the curve, but it saved me from buying a new canvas.
There are videos on the product on youtube of how it works. Very simple, but factory looking results.

So you gonna come fix the hole that stupid tree put in mine now?!?

Sure, we can cut the patch from the other side so the fabric matches and sew it right on.

too funny!
