You might have read a couple of weeks ago that for Christmas, Santa bought me a bike!! Well, after a ride or two, I decided that Sam's little bike seat wasn't nearly as comfortable or cute as it could be......so I made a little cover for it.
What you will need
- 60 cm print fabric
- 60 cm thick wadding
- 15 cm binding fabric
- Coordinating thread
- Beto Bike Seat Cover downloadable pattern
1.
Assemble the bike seat cover by placing the back cotton panel, right side
down. Next, position place the wadding and finish with the front cotton panel, wrong side down.
2. Tack around the edges to hold in place.
3. Join the 2” strips and create a length of binding (find out how here). Attach the binding to the bike seat cover, covering the tacking
stitches (find out how here).
4. Create buttonholes, where indicated on the pattern, to form
holes for the seat belt straps.
5. Stitch along crease lines, where indicated on the pattern, to
ensure seat cover fits snuggly on seat.
Voila. What a beautiful way to make bike riding fun again!!
