Adding Corners

Just a note about adding corners.  Though I didn’t do it, adding corners to a cover isn’t hard.  You simply cut a piece of leather to about the size of the corner you want.  Paste it out and place it over the corner.  You wrap the edges around to the inside of the cover where it gets a little trickier.  You don’t want to have a large bump on the inside of the cover where the leather meets in the corner.  So you need to do something similar to creating an origami squash fold (yes, I do origami too ).  That’s where you have two sides folded together into a point that you squash down.  To squash it, you hold the two sides where they meet, opening the fold somewhat, and then literally squash the point down. In this case, you would cut out the squashed fold leaving a neat seam.
