DIY leather dash mat

I long wanted to DIY my dash mat to replace the fur one. n finally did it.. although is not a nice one. still satis for it. hee.. The material i use is : a needle, 1 roll of thread, leather, a very gd scissor, a ruler, n cotton.
1st i measure the car dash dimension, which i used back my old fur as a template, n cut the whole pcs of leather to it. The main part of the mat is design in diagonal criss-cross. The cotton is stuff inside to make it like a cushion effect. The rest is sewing part.

Sew half-way thru...
bought some deco button for it to outstand the mat.. 1 button is only 35cts. cool rite.. u can hav diagonal or more button to choose, n more choice of button to choose from.. but the simple the nicer i feel. hee...
Final product: yeah finish..
This is some of the k-style DIY dash mat. isnt cool?? hee
