Thread 10-pound-strength monofilament(fishing wire or invisible nylon heavyweight thread) through a large embroidery needle. Carefully pull the needle through a corner of the fabric a few times, enough to make a secure knot when tugged or pulled lightly. Depending on how high your overhead support is, you may need a stepstool or ladder to tie the monofilament in a secure knot to the tree branch or beam.
