Yes covered it myself. Had the stitching done that was the cost. I didn't like the ones I have seen for sale. It turned out better than I thought it was going to.

do you have and will you share a soft copy of the artwork that you gave to whomever did the stitching?
It looks great...

You could probably sell those for $75. Just a thought.

Very nice! I'd pay $50 - $75 for one like that. Unfortunately, most vendors would sell them for $150 - $175.

Personally I'm on the fence about it, but very nice work, and a great solution to your problem.

Nice!
Be aware though, GM liscensing will be all over you if these are sold...You may want to contact EMI, Equity Management Inc about using a GM trademark.
