Are you doing it by hand? Or with a machine?

It's easy to do with a machine, depending on the fabric you want to use, you may have to get a certain kind of machine. My parents reupholstered the seats on our boats, and it was a b**ch and a half because they didn't have a machine for it.

To actually sew it's pretty easy as long as you don't care that it won't look perfect.

I might just buy an old commercial sewing machine off of craigslist.
