Funny you ask. It's been 40 or so years since either of us have done this. The clutch on our sewing machine broke 2 weeks ago. It's a 1947 Singer and the part should be in this week. We got this far. But the center section in front is too wide, so I tore out the stitches and will redo it. The first one is a long process and it not as simple as copying the size of each piece and sewing them together. This is also a difficult cushion style to replicate. Hard to get the little wings tucked down in the center section. GM used velcro to fasten the cushion trim instead of hog rings. I'm using hog rings. It's winter, have plenty of time, it will be worth the effort in the end.
