    latest pics. today I started on the back seat. Andy stripped the old covering, then cleaned and painted the frames.
    I hog ringed a layer of burlap to the outer edge of the seat frame. I then covered the burlap with three layers of polyester batting. I cut the first layer slightly over sized and hog ringed it to the outer edge of the frame. the next two layers wrapped the edge and were hog ringed to the springs.
    I didnt get a pic but I then covered it with muslin. This allows the seat cover to slide easily on the frame.
    Now its ready for the seat cover.
