No need for sewing if you go the 3-mil poly route as suggested above. It's pretty rugged stuff and, since it's non-woven, it doesn't need to be hemmed to prevent unravelling. Just cut it to size and go.

I have an inexpensive grommet kit that I use to put grommets in poly footprints and tarps, and even into backpacks as hydration ports in a couple cases. It's super easy to use. The only downside is that the grommets I have aren't exactly the same size as the pole ends on my tents, but they're close enough for most purposes. (I could get a different size grommet kit, but haven't bothered.)
