The goal of this small project as component of a Jaguar rear door panel is to reupholster its armrest in dark brown automotive leather including its additional plastic pieces.
We will realize the old armrest cover is useful as a template if it is still in good condition. The OEM cover has two pieces done in vinyl. The idea is to lay these two pieces over a piece of stationery cardboard and try to replicate it adding the required 'seam allowance' and the very important 'sewing registrations'.
To get 'french seams/double stitches even and flat there is a crevice/groove along the upper edge where the 'sewing junction' is hidden.
Shoemaker's transparent polyurethane glue and upholstery yellow glue are used for glueing procedure.
The whole door panel will be soon reupholstered in same dark brown leather.
I hope you enjoy the video and find some inspiration!
