    I have a golf cart. Would you like me to go measure it?

    I'veI've made several for both the front and back seats. I've also "reupholstered" the seat backs. 45" wide fabric is the perfect width. I've used binding for the edges and ties but I prefer using ties made from the fabric. I usually use fusible batting and layer the batting and two cuts of fabric sewn right sides together and sew the ties in with the seams. After turning the right sides out I then machine quilt it. The front seat is deep enough so you can wrap it around the front of the seat and tuck it under the seat with ties to secure it. The back seat just ties on the handles. However the fabric fades in the sun so I usually make it reversible. Never had any problems with the stitching coming out. We used our golf cart in the campground where we stayed all summer and used it every day several times a day. The covers usually lasted about two to three years before they got too faded to look good. As far as the seat backs, you can pop the upholstered pads out of the frame, wrap the fabric around them and stapled to the back and then popped them back in. My golf cart is currently at my son's house but if you would like the measurements please let me know and I'll try get them.
