lol yeah that's definitely the hardest part for me. If you go with a simple pattern though it isn't too bad. Just use heavy duty needles and upholstery thread. When you make the pattern, leave 1/2" where the seams will be and 1/2"-1" around all the edges that will be stretched and stapled. Match up the patterns, and then sew 1/2" in from the edge to take advantage of the extra you left. From there, I folded each side over and sewed on some cotton backing to reinforce the seams.
