A B S T R A C T The present invention relates to a fastener for securing a flexible sheet of fabric, such as a boat cover, to a support surface. The fastener is comprised of a tongue member which is adapted to be mounted on the support surface, and a mouth element adapted to be fixed through the fabric to cooperate with the tongue member. The mouth element is comprised of a front plate and a rear plate between which the fabric is clamped. The rear plate is comprised of a base member having an opening therein and two separate resilient straight walls projecting outwardly from the base member substantially perpendicular to the plane thereof. One resilient wall is positioned along each of two opposite edges of the opening. The walls incorporate a locking unit which pass through a hole in the fabric which registers with the opening in the base member. The front plate has an opening therethrough which snap fits over the locking unit in the walls. The locking units releasively hold the front and rear plates together so that the fabric is clamped therebetween. The tongue member has a projection which passes through the opening in the base member, through the hole in the fabric and through the opening in the front plate. The projection fits closely in these holes. A holding unit for retaining the projection is positioned when the projection has been passed through the openings and the hole.
