I left a bit too much fabric between two turnbuckles on my roof and I think the more I drive, the more the fabric will stretch.  Any ideas on how to 'shorten' the fabric without butchering it?

The two turnbuckles to the right have too much fabric between them: IMG_5436.JPG

The second patch of fabric from the right seems to be stretched the tightest. Can you redrill the second turn from the right just to it's left thus slightly loosening the stretched piece and pulling the overly loose one. The corner turn could possibly be moved out slightly also and then you can come and make one for the Bantam.

You're right Warren. The second spacing appears the tightest but to drill again would have to be so close to the first hole. I think I'd just make things worse. I was hoping for some sort of trick I could do with the fabric might be the lesser of two evils. I'll sort something out and I will definitely consider re-drilling again. As for the Bantam, I'll come and lend a hand anytime.
