Can you not get a couple of upholstery needles ( both straight and curved), a thimble and some good strong polycotton thread and reinforce the stitching yourself? Best to do it now, before the original stitching has totally given way.

we have back it up for now but i need to get some one who know what they are doing to get it done right and make sure it is done nice to

i love this tent and would not be with out it so am happy to pay to get it done

all my kids have grown up in this tent , i don't think i want to just get a new one as it will never be the same , but if the cost if to much i will have to which i think will kill me  

hubby thinks i am mad which i might be but still this is my 2 home for a good 4 weeks of a year and they are happy weeks full of kids being happy

i have talked to 3 people so far all have said to bring it in and see what they say

so after this years hoilday in 12 days time it wil go off and we will see what happens
