Abstract
A convertible top for a vehicle includes a flexible material and an embroidered pattern. The embroidered pattern is formed by at least one yarn in the flexible material. The embroidered pattern contrasts from the flexible material to provide an aesthetic feature to the flexible material. In a second embodiment, a method of decorating a convertible top includes providing a convertible top connected to a vehicle. The convertible top has latches, a window, a frame and a layer of fabric. The method includes removing the convertible top from the vehicle and removing the latches, the window, and the frame from the layer of fabric. The method further includes introducing the layer of fabric to a sewing and embroidery machine and selecting a pattern. The method further includes providing a yarn operatively coupled to the sewing and embroidery machine and stitching the yarn into the layer of fabric, wherein the yarn forms an embroidered pattern that approximates the pattern. The method further includes cutting the yarn and removing the layer of fabric with the embroidered pattern from the sewing and embroidery machine and connecting the latches, the window, and the frame to the layer of fabric to form the convertible top. Thereafter, the convertible top is connected to the vehicle.
