4.  If on a main container, take a piece of Type-3 tape big  enough to match the outside patch as marked. Cover  the inside of the damaged area with the tape. 5.  Pin or glue the tape patch to the inside as marked. Use  the single needle to sew around the patch overstitching  the ends a minimum of 1 inch. 6.  Take the zigzag machine and stitch the edges of the  damaged area together as described in step 4, Hidden  Patches.  [Figure L]  Repair complete. 2.  Lay the patch in place over the damaged area and mark  the corners with a marking pencil.  [Figure J] 3.  Take a straight pin and transfer the corners of the patch  area through to the inside.  [Figure K] 1.  Duplicate steps 1–5 that was used in the “Overlay  Patches” section above but substitute webbing for  the inside patch and use container fabric for the  outside patch. 2.  Fold the edges of the outside patch under a minimum  of .5 inch. Stitch around the perimeter approximately  .12 inch from the edge. Run a second row of stitches  approximately .25 inch inside and parallel to the  first.  [Figure M]  This gives added strength to the  patch and an appearance of a French fell seam patch.  Repair complete. Single-Side Fabric Patches For most fabric patches on a container panel, there is not  enough area to perform a proper French fell seam patch.  Consequently, the single-side patch is the most common  technique used. By using matching fabric and thread, a large  damaged area may be covered to affect the necessary repair.  While called a single-side patch, in effect it is an enlarged  version of the overlay patch. A smaller piece of webbing or  fabric is used to cover the damaged area on the inside and the  outside is covered with the single-side patch. This technique  is used where there may be large holes or widespread damage  and replacement of the panel is not practical. 7-41
