Just repaired rips on our rear seat/bed! Well chuffed!

Just spent the last two afternoons 'Darning'

The rear seat had started wearing through in places and rather than paying to have them recovered, I had a go at repairing them. Turned out quite well I think!

What do you think?

BTW, nice job. Well done!
