I have wanted to do a paisley print door panel insert for a while now.  I’ve had the fabric and backing sitting in my room for a few months now and decided I wanted to get creative tonight rather then just mindlessly cut and bolt things.

It took about an hour and a half to do this one panel (and cut out both sides of fabric).  I’ve never done this before and I was surprised at how well the whole process went – I had some help from my roommate’s girlfriend.  I had to use a wire brush to get most of the yellow foam off of the door panel, and I used the original fabric to trace the outline on the new stuff.  There was a tad too much fabric in a few areas but it all fit down into the crease of the door panel for the most part.  Once it dries completely I will see if I can shove it down some more in a few areas.

The best part is there was NO BUNCHING AT ALL!  I took some pictures up close to show that off, haha.
