Thanks again for that great video - here's the fruit of my first not-as-clueless attempt:

Another question - does anyone know if I should stretch out the fabric (knit in this case) before sewing on the plastic canvas piece?
Cheers,

I wouldn't stretch it. If it shrinks back, it'll pucker. I would get it preshrunk though.
