This video does not want to be the ultimate guide on how to make the perfect sails, there are tons of ways, this is just one of them and it is the one I liked the most for my Amati Mayflower. So it’s up to you and up to the look you want to give to your model wheater you can use this method or not.
I couldn’t find a lighter fabric for that scale, but if you manage to do so try a thinner cloth in order to respect the scale proportions!
Although some details of the sails might be out of scale (like the thickness) for this specific model the method remains the same.
