Update -
I finished stitching 6 diamond quilt panels to be used in many of the backrests.
I made my first piece, which is part of the instrument panel trim. The original skin had a 'faux' french seam, and I decided to add a bit of color to the re-make of it with real top-stiching instead of a faux seam. The original skin is to the left in the picture.

I've noticed that a fair amount of the sidewall trim in the boat has 'faux' french seams (i.e. double stitch rows where a seam would typically be). Then the material is stretched to fit the shape of the trim.
I'm planning on going with an actual french seam instead of the faux seam. Stretching the material for a precise fit in a 'one-off' fashion is a bit of trial and error. I think an actual seam will make for an easier (and better) fit to the trim piece.
awesome job
