Mini Car cover finished...

Since I like to leave off the Targa top but hate to leave it off overnight due to leaves and cats that might get into the car I made up this mini cover. It is great to keep the sun off the interior and also hides whatever is inside. The best part is that it comes off and goes back on fast and easy. It folds up so small that I stow it behind the seat.
I started with a half cover from California Car cover. The rear was too long so I shortened it by about 24 inches. The velcro in the front I moved to fit the wiper arms and re-sewed. The side velcro matched up with the door handles perfectly. I used metal clips from my dirtbike tube bag with some 1/8" shock cord. I made the stow bag out to the excess material.

Looks great. Nice work. I don't suppose you saved any patterns you could post?

So are you the seam stress or did you have some assistance?
 
That would be nice if you got caught out and ran into the occasional light shower. Pull over and take a coffee break with that on until it rains out.
