Default Rear Fender bib for Deluxe

I had been searching the threads on here looking to see if anyone made a rear fender bib the fits my 2007 Softail Deluxe that I liked. I couldn't find one so I made my own. I was looking for the following characteristics;

1. Wide enough to cover the plastic with the rack removed.
2. Matches the basket weave like the seat.
3. Same lace as the seat.
4. Matches the overall theme of the bike.
5. Made of leather.
6. Fits snug against the fender with no gaps.
7. Additional piece that covers the rear seat plate with no ugly *****.

Being the perfectionist I am here is what I came up with. So what do you all think?

Wow! Very nice. I just bought a Heritage Classic Seat for my FLST that I plan to use as a solo. I'd be interested in something that looks along the lines of the classic seat.
