Removable Car Seat Cover DIY

- An in-depth tutorial on making a template, cutting, sewing and installing a seat cover in a 1995 Toyota truck.
The technique demonstrated here will work for an upholstery overhaul in any vehicle.
This seat cover is made with thrifted and leftover project fabrics- it's been chosen to be unique and stand out! And why not use what you already have?
The cover is held in place with a drawstring, tied under the seat to hold it tightly in place. It is easily removed for washing.
Thanks for watching!
Fits perfectly rear-facing in our truck, which has a slightly smaller back seats. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx6_FKRYB2ClSPRyjcd8HptiCS3EiQoNX4 Feels as comfy and plush as our Graco Contender carseat
Right on! Thanks!
Thank you for getting right to it instead of talking for 20 min about your channel.
This is the best DIY car seat cover vid on TH-cam.
My son just got a Tacoma! and the darn driver's seat needs love, I brainstormed with a friend and decided that Mexican blanket material would be best, this is LITERALLY perfect. I knew I was going to find someone who had already done it. This is going to be a fun project. Thank you for documenting it!
Yay, I’m so glad you found this video- best of luck on your Tacoma project!
I have a 1996 GMC Sierra that needs this. Your video was so much more helpful than any of the others I have watched. Thank you for this. Beautiful fabric choice.
Your kid looks like a cool dude. He is lucky to have clever mom like you!
Nicely done! Thanks for the thorough yet quick tutorial.
Thank you!
I have watched multiple videos for a seat cover, and this is by FAR the best one, gonna get the stuff to make my own today, and I am gonna use this video as a reference😊 Great job mama!
Thank you! Best of luck on your project 😊
Great job! I like the contrast between the drab stock interior and the colorful seat cover.
Thank you- I insisted on the colorful fabric, why be boring and drab twice?!
What a resourceful, practical and kind mother!
Derek Davis Thank you for the extremely thoughtful remark- much appreciated!🙏🏼
What a great tutorial! Thank you!
This is the BEST tutorial I've watched in a long time! You are SUCH a clever mom! This video captures the love and caring which goes into our sewing in such a beautiful way. And, now I know how to make a seat cover! Thank you SO MUCH!
Jenina Mella Thank YOU so much - your kind words mean everything!!🙏🏼❤️
Love the music & The seat covers, I got a 95 Toyota Tacoma too woo hoo ! It takes a licking & keeps on ticking with 300,000+ miles !
wow! this woman is on another level.
GankenBerry 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Just what I need !! Thank you for the tutorial!!!
Great video Noelle, It brought back memories of me mending & patching and inventing things with my sewing machine for my 4 kids 30 years ago. I am now making seat covers for my husband's toy (his RV) and I will use your drawstring design to hold the bottom seat covers in place. Thank you!
Jean, thanks for sharing your experience sewing for your kids- such great memories near and far. Good luck with your seat covers!🙂
The duct tape and knife trick is great. I love this video. You're amazing.
VaLene Hulme Haha! Mcgyver moments!
Awesome job mom!
This is great. Just needed it. I didn't want my new car to be full of sand from swimming
so excited to do this on my car
This is so interesting.I hope this is going to work for my 70s Valiant all 5 seats.
I bet they look like crap by now! Hope it goes well for you.
@@totalvet Oh yes.The original seats is crap and rotted out.So I have to get industrial sponge ,curve out seats molds,then cover with some sort of cheap fabric material.btw project funds are low so it will take some time.
Fabulous...love the matching hair tie! I am an artist and have designed my own fabric with a Picasso inspired design for my Purple Picasso car! I can't wait to make my cover. Thank you for your help.
What a great idea- customized fabric for your seat covers! I bet it will turn out great!👍🏼
@@NoelleODesigns My fabric has arrived! I'm beyond excited! Wish I could show you a picture!
Are you on Instagram? DM me a picture of the fabric- I would love to see! @noelleodesigns
I’m actually gonna attempt this for the backseat of my truck
You can do it!🙌🏼
Love your work!!
Thank you!
Fantastic! Love this video, thank you!
Scott Turner I’m so glad it was helpful- thank you!!
This was a perfect tutorial and because I’m visual I appreciated the way you filmed each step! I just picked up my new truck and envisioned doing something with vintage Pendleton throws or even their clearance fabrics. But I need to consider the airbags so I might just create a top piece that drapes. Anyway, thanks again!
Amazing job🎉💕🔥🔥
Thank you! 😊
Skills! Loved watching the process and the result was so good!
Aw he looks like a sweet boy
brilliant
😊 cool music
That was awesome. Subscribed
You are an awesome mom👍
Bradley Gray thanks!!🙏🏼
What do you think would be the best fabrics to use that can take the very hot temperature?
Sugins Corner If you could find a fabric with UV blocking elements (so the fabric would last longer) Likewise, a lighter color fabric wouldn’t absorb as much heat. In my experience I don’t think one fabric type is better than the other for heat. I would go for durability so you don’t have to make another cover anytime soon. Thanks!
you are a very cool woman, thanks for the tutorial! ;)
Max Weston Thanks for watching!
Well done and thanks for the inspiration! I really like the idea of your pull chord as opposed to the flat cheap elastic that comes with replacement covers! Again, well done!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this! The seat cover looks amazing.
My office chair just strted shredding (looks like it was made out of cheap skai). I can't afford a new chair but I have a lot of random materials. I'm going to try this!
Captain Alice sounds great!
OmgI love this so much
Whats the name of that black fabric?
Kathy Dragos it’s just a heavy upholstery weight fabric, like you would use to cover a couch or chair.
Thanks. :)
This Is nice
I LOVED watching this. The way you did it - movements, techniques - was so much like my mom. It was like watching her make me something. In regards to it being a seat cover, loved the great ideas like the paracord to keep it in place and working around the buckle. One of the best DIY videos. Beautiful fabric and great job!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!
Awesome!!!
Jerome Reyes Thank you!
This was very helpful
Sabrina Kling I’m so glad to hear! It’s a good fixing skill to have. Thanks!
The best vehicle seat upholstery I could find! Could you please tell me roughly how many yards of each fabric that you used? I am going fabric shopping as soon as you reply! Thank you so very much.
This was SOOO SATISFYING to watch!! I was looking at the car I drive and was thinking, I could probably sew a seat cover instead of buying a prefab one...Thank you!!!
OffTheCreamyCrack You can do it! It might take longer than 10 minutes but the sped up video version IS so satisfying in it’s quick completion!😅Thanks!!
Very good, I will follow your way and make one..... professional finish better than store bought.....Nice job and thanks for sharing
Omg, where has TH-cam been hiding you?!? Thank you for this tutorial, been searching endlessly for diy removable seat covers for my truck! 💜
So glad this video is helpful! Stick around for more useful DIYs 😊

I followed your instructions, and made a very nice car seat cover for neighbor. He loves it!!
I've been doing this to my vehicles for a while now, but I could always use a new set of pointers. I still have a hard time getting to to look exactly right on the seat
Grimwolf The seatcover definitely moves around a bit and needs tightening up from time to time too but worth it when you consider the mess underneath. I hope this video gave you a few helpful pointers. Thanks for watching!
Excellent video
Seriously, that's a fantastic looking car seat.
Bad MammaJamma!
very nicely done. what's the grey fabric?
Da Os it’s an upholstery weight (heavy duty) basic fabric that you would use up cover a couch or chair (etc).
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
Cool Mom, Cool Kid! Excellent video.
WOW ITS PERFECT! After seeing how it's done I'm more confident to try making one for me n my mums car. It does looks like it takes some time tho. But it would be a really cool result.
Thanks! You can do it- just takes some patience in puzzling things out and take your time doing the sewing👍🏼
Looks great good job & info. You made it a lot simpler
Great job mom
Thanks!
What would you charge for a 2004 tahoe,I can't find anything but camo,came, like the native American look,I sew a little.but not sure I could do such a great job as you!!
Check you local upholstery shops, they could advise on code and probably fabric too. Thanks!
That was impressive I wish you could do that for me lol
Up to my standards. Thanks for sharing.
What would you recommend if I can’t pull the fabric through to the back? The back portion of the seat is not movable and it seems impossible to push the fabric through.
You could make the seat cover to completely cover the back and the seat portions. Pull the cover on and then make the tie system to tie underneath. I hope that helps!
the music is overpowering what she was saying...
Can you fix the hole in my sleeve? Too funny! 😅😂
Great tutorial, but I had to put it on mute because the repetitive soundtrack got annoying after about a minute. I'd rather just hear nothing with your occasional comments.
Good to know- thanks!
Huh, what are the odds, this is the exact same truck with the exact same split bench seat I was looking to make something for. Hope he still has it! Thanks for the video, I may just have to give this a shot
Ha! The wacky 2/3, 1/3 seat situation in this truck was what inspired the DIY. In a world where you can buy literally everything, this seat is the exception. We could not find a premade cover for this setup and I’m willing to bet you couldn’t either. Best of luck on making the cover- happy I could help!
Very nice but it would have been more helpful if you would have explained what you were doing at different steps of the making of the cover. You went so fast if was kind of hard for us not so good sewers
Toni Mitchell Thank you for your feedback. TH-cam allows you to watch the video at slower speeds if that helps. I left the video with mostly visual cues and fewer verbal explanations because sometimes it’s easier to watch a process instead of having something explained- at least for me it is!🙂
I don’t have a sewing machine tho which I need to get
I aspire to get to your sewing level! I wanna be super mom too one day!!!
Veronica Siravo You’re too kind! Just keep on sewing everyday- practice, practice, practice.😊
omg this is so good. i’m going to be using this as a reference to make my boring black wheelchair seat & backrest cute as hell 🤩
Sounds great- no more boring black!🙌🏼🙂
might just do this...but add pockets on the front apron for stashing 'goodies' :)
Great idea, the more pockets the better!
Great video. Thank you !
Great job. I need to try to fix mine. Thank you for the video. God bless.
Glad it helped!
Can you make seat covers for me if I provide the cloth? And a little bit of $?
Hi James, I wouldn’t be able to do it but I’m sure there is a upholster local to you who would do a great job. Good luck!
I love this! What a cool mom.
Love the Fabric. Great Job.
Nice video! Thank you!
thank you great video !!!!!! VERY WELL DONE !!!
Thank you!!
U R A Super Mom , Mommy ....
Wow! ... that is what skill looks like! :) Beautiful!
Thank you!
Excellent job.
Just got my first car. Hate the seats. But I'm just to scared to make my own coveres
Abby Saddoris give it a try- you might surprise yourself. If nothing else you’ll be giving a new skill a try and learning something new!
@@NoelleODesigns :OOOO THnaks for the support :))))))) I might just try now :)))))))))))))))))
Very cool!
Brilliant ❤.
Coolest mom ever
No explanations just watch me sew LOL
amy lopez I think it’s easier to watch the process to get what’s going on and skip lengthy explanations- but maybe it’s just the visual learner in me.😊
Really cool!
👌👌👌👌🥰🥰🥰🥰👍
Awwww..
Dang man, that was a gorgeous removable seat cover! Great great fabric choice that he did too! Wish I had your skills for project architecture and sewing 😅👍. I enjoyed watching it come to completion. 🤩
Thanks, I really appreciate it!
so many clever little tricks in this video ! thank you !
savers tag
Love it!
I agree with these commenters!! Best BA tutorial I have seen in a LONG time! Excellent and you have a new subscriber!!!
Thank you!
Very nice job 👌👌
Thank you!☺️
amazing
that was an amazing job ! Thanks for sharing it !
You killed this! Looks awesome.
Thank you!
Awesome job!!! You made it look easy. But i know it's not.
It’s not that difficult- just be patient and believe in yourself, you can do it!😊
@@NoelleODesigns Thank you for the encouragement. 😍
Hi
Great video,I saw where someone used clear plastic to mark out the seat pattern, but I like how you made the pattern. I’m looking to make seat covers for my son’s car as well. I hope your son appreciated you making those seat covers
Plastic is an interesting choice, coming from a traditionally trained sewing point of view, paper (or fabric) is always my go to- I want to be able to write on the pattern too.
He definitely appreciated the seat covers😊 He’s a great maker himself and now has his own bike bag making company- Fish-Ski Designs! (@fish_ski.designs on Instagram)
Thank you for having this diy!
You’re very welcome!
