  Step 1

  Cut out fabric to 44" x 4.5". (I like to cut out the pattern on a piece of wrapping paper first so I can use it later without having to measure again.)

• 

  Step 2

  Fold the long edges in about 1/2" and press.

• 

  Step 3

  Sew the short ends together then sew up the sides that were pressed down to make piping for the elastic. Be sure to leave the seams open 1/2" to pull the elastic through.

• 

  Step 4

  Attach the elastic end to a pin. It makes it easier to feed through the piping. Feed it through then sew the ends of the elastic. Sew the seams shut. Repeat on the other side.

  Step 5

  Hoozah! You now have a steering wheel cover that's almost as awesome as you.

I mum would love this! None of the covers fit her car because she has a smaller steering wheel.

Brilliant! I drive a Ford and the standard off the peg wheel covers just don't fit!
