I did something similar.  I bought the merino fleece seatbelt covers on e-bay (a lot less than in the store).  The tubes have velcro sewn into them for easy wrap around.  I put a grommet at the end and looped a tie string through and tie them in place with that.  The fleece is bulky at first but once you ride with it for a bit, it mashes down and conforms to the shape of your saddle/body.
