I'm redoing my upholstery I did the leaning post first.  White quilted then teal stopes then smooth white I did the front of the conse seat  then changed it  as I didn't  like the wayit look

there's how it looks
I'm making coaming pads and had the idea to have secraft logos embroidered onto The vinyl.
I'm think if I have white quilt then teAl stripes then smoothe white with a teal logo the stripe on each side to match the rest of the boat may be too much and I'm thinking just white
so I ask you opinions ?

I'm a big fan of white with small touches of color.  I'd do the teal piping and logo, and skip the teal stripes on the coaming pads unless they're really long.  On smaller boats, I think too much pattern gets really busy really fast.  Just my opinion, of course.

MI'M think Junes ways also.  I did thebbackrest in the front of the console with the real running all the way up. It also hung on a track and was loose looking. I put it on plywood and sceewed on o to a opening hatch door and shorten the stripes.  Now I'm going to take it apathy agsin and put the logo up top there also

Another vote for teal piping.  But I like the shot of color Rich suggests with gold embroidery!
