Picked up a colour matched hide from the bay for £25 the other day so intend having a go at re-trimming my seats myself over the next year or so. Having done the centre console already with reasonable success I learnt a lot, but has anyone else done this themselves and if so can anyone offer any tips and advice.

And before anyone says get it done professionally I will if my efforts don't work out, but I like to have a go and at £25 for a full cow hide there isn't much to lose.

Got a pair of socks with a hole in if you want to have a practice first, and you would be doing me a favour biglaugh

Seriously though, fair play, I would never attempt such a thing with my lack of needlework skills.
