Needlework: some secret behind the sewing and the upholstery of Toyota Corolla car seat

Hello Hive

Virtual greetings to everyone here present, how are you all doing today, i hope you all are doing great. I am happy to post here again today. I am sorry guys for not being able to share my post on Monday, this is because i always start my new project on Monday.

Since i become a member of this great community i have come to learn many new thing and for sure i know many other have learn from me too. Everyone knows me too well that i deals on the upholstery of a car seat and that is what i am doing for a living for since government work do not favour me.

Firstly before i proceed i will love to remind you what i mean by upholstery.

What is upholstery
This simply means providing funiture especially seats with fabric or leather cover.
Let see how to upholst this

This seat was given to me by one of my customer i work on is seat few years ago, he said he love my work because i use quality material to work in which the one i did for Him is still new. I remember last year i cover the back seat for him so he brought it back to me to cover the front seat also so that all the seat will be the same, He was lucky that i see the same leather i use for the back side.

Here is the seat
Before

I know this is not new but i love to discribe some steps i follow to make my come real.

Simple steps I follow to reupholst the seat above

Step 1: choose the fabric
Before you plan of reupholst any seat you have to first of all consider the fabric that you will use and it have to match with the interior colour of the car. In this case we are using this

Because it match the carry come fabric and the back seat i cover before.

Step 2: Detach car seats
Locate the bolts on the seat and loose to separate the back from the main seat

Step 3: Measurement and cutting of fabric/treaming

At this stage with the help of sewing tape measure out the length of each point in the seat and cut it out or u loose the whole fabric and place on the new fabric face to face after that u cut it out

Measurement

Marking measurement on new material

Cutting ✂️ and trimming

After trimming it You now place it on form with the help of gum and cut it out

Step 4: sewing and reupholster
After getting done with the cutting with the help of your sewing machine you now saw it together
Then after you cover the new seat with the new sew material and make show you clip it very we. If you check other of the post you will see how I cover the new seat with the new leather.

Finally u will achieve this

Wow how do you see the finished work hope is nice.
Thank you guys for your time and for going through.
