My suggestion would be to do the corners like a mitered corner, but fold the extra over to the outside then back. That way you have a 'smooth front' appearance.

OR you could put the 'mitered corner' fold to the INSIDE folded to the front and the open area would be 'leaning' to the side of the chair.

If this sounds odd, just try it.

There are programs on Youtube about this, I would think.

Good Luck

I have re-done seats & stools before & need to re-do my current dining set. It's a little tougher when the chairs have a thick cushion that's soft, as you have to be careful not to pull too hard with the fabric or part of the cushioning will compress. My concern is doing the cushioned corners as they stand up about 2", in a soft curve. Any suggestions from anyone with experience out there?
