I love to craft with Oly-Fun Fabric because it is such a lightweight, versatile textile. You can glue it, sew it, staple it, and paint on it without ever worrying about the edges fraying! It was the perfect choice for this large project because you can use Oly-Fun Fabric right off the bolt. Plus, it’s light enough so it’s easy to attach to your garage door.

Pattern & Tutorial
I created a pattern after measuring my garage door. You will need to measure your own garage door and adjust the pattern accordingly to fit your needs. When measuring the height of the door, be sure to leave an allowance since the fabric will need to bend as the door bends to open and close. You will also want to measure the width of the door correctly so that fabric doesn’t get trapped in the rollers.
