Here is the seat before
Here is the seat after
Firstly since this is the back seat, you don't need to loose any because the are on their own, so i took the vertical and the horizontal length if the seat and then write it down.
We are going to make use of two different leather looking at the design..
So without taking more time i transfer the measurement to the new leather and then use chalk and long ruler to mark it out .
After then i use scissors to cut them out
This is where the screat is this my work, to form a pattern. And this is very simple to do it, just place the cut material on the old seat and then draw out the pattern carefully and exactly. See photo below 👇👇
Do same to form the pattern all through and then shape it out. Hope you understand.
Here are the patterns
To make the leather think and smooth, i then place it on a roof material
Then gum them together
After that i then cut it out for sewing process
To proceed, i then use a sewing machine to sew those pattern together.
And here is how it look like.
Then i proceed to sew the side too.
Finally the seat cover is now ready
Then i clip the new seat cover to the old seat.
