I like to take both yoga and pilates classes, along with boot camp--although I do not work as hard as I should at my boot camp. Anyway, I own few yoga/pilates mats with varying thicknesses.  But I decided to make my own--almost my own. I used my 24" x 68" x 1/8" mat, then covered it using fleece fabric, then made the cover with beautiful soft cotton fabric. I added shelf liner for the back so that it wouldn't be so slippery on the hardwood floors.  Here is the finished product.

It is very comfortable, as well as very pretty to look at. While I'm doing my yoga/pilates, the front will stretch a bit, which is OK, but will not slip because of the shelf liner on the back. Yea!
