The seat cover has a front panel which overlies the front of the seat back portion, and a lower extension extending downwardly from the front panel to fit through the junction. The seat cover fastening system includes a flexible sheet of material joined to the side and top edges of the front panel to extend about the sides and over the top of the seat back portion to the rear thereof, where the sheet of material terminates in a rear edge at the rear of the seat back portion. The rear edge is formed generally in the shape of an inverted U, and includes a channel extending along a substantial portion of the edge for receiving and holding a drawstring. A drawstring is disposed in the channel so that the ends thereof extend out respective ends of the channel. The ends of the drawstring include hooks to enable connecting the drawstring to the lower extension such as by loops attached to the lower extension or eyelets or grommets formed in the lower extension. In this manner, a uniform tension is applied to the sheet of material to pull the front panel smooth against the front of the seat back portion.
