15. If the fabric was loaded correctly, the patch will be square and will lay flat with no bubble. [Figure 7-22] 

16. Using the scissors, cut the damage out along the rip stop lines 7 boxes in from the stitching that holds the patch on. Placing your hand between the patch and parachute while trimming prevents damaging your patch with the scissors. [Figure 7-23] 

17. Make a diagonal cut in each corner to 3 ripstop boxes from the corner. [Figure 7-24]

18. Place the work under the sewing machine and, using the hemostat, grab one ripstop box in from the cut edge. Place the parachute fabric behind the fold back of the patch forming a French fell seam. Do this in two places and seat the one box fold back against the patch stitch row with the tip of the hemostat. Sew around the parachute patch repeating this process on each side. [Figures 7-25 and  7-26] 

19. Take care that each corner is fully seated and square. [Figure 7-27] 

20. Use the side of the presser foot as a gauge for stitching. [Figure 7-28]
