At the fabric store I purchased what I called old tableclothe. It has plastic on one side and soft flanel like fabric on the other side. The cover is easy enough to make. I laid the fabric on top of the canopy, cut two slits on each side to get it to lay right, pinned it and had a seamstress sew it with reenforcement patches at the top of each cut and over the locking latch area. I used fabric tape on each corner and velcro to secure it at each gear leg and under the belly at the rear.
