Compressed denim and expoxy, and the cool thing is that you can use any color denim you want (or any type of fabric really).

For a one off
I "Pull a Plug"
Smear the frame with a release agent ( I have seen this done using saran wrap) push your resin soaked fiber into the frame let one side set before make the other side. Mark and drill your attachment points (some time easier to do from the inside) Build the plugs with enough extra material that they can be sanded, checkered or stippled to taste. If you want wood you can pull an low profile epoxy plug. then epoxy wood to the plug and you are free to form it in any fashion you like. I have also see great result using scraps of Corian Countertop material It required some extra polishing but damn it looked great
