New Buddy Seat Cover Template

Post by pinkducati »

Hi all. I am new to the forum. I just got my new Buddy for XMas and I am in love with it! :D I'm really interested in making a new seat cover. I have gone online to www.scooterseatcovers.com but I want to pick out my own fabric and customize it myself. So I was wondering if anyone has done it on their own and if you might have a good way of making a template.

Thanks for the reply. I love to sew so I am going to make one myself. I bought some green furry fabric that is going to look really cool.

Hey!

I made my own seatcover. I got tissue paper and traced the panels of the seat. Then I got some cool fabric on sale. I cut each panel about 1/2 inch wider than my pattern pieces all around. I sewed the pieces together, matching them to the panels on the seat. Then I measured some elastic- about 3/4 of what it took to go around the inside of the seat underneath. Then I made a hem and put the elastic in. It fits great and I love it. I hope this helps. My pic is on this site about a month ago.

Happy sewing,
Ivyall :wink:
