Hood corners - test

Just a little time on the hood, I tried out the paper template on an off-cut to see how it behaves:

It seems to be ok - i.e. reasonably neat job and allows the fabric to sit flat on the front of the hood frame as well as curve around the corner without losing shape; easier said than done though - the fabric I'm using has a plastic inner for waterproofing which makes it challenging to press & pleat into shape:

A little more thought needed on the edging then I'm going to have another go at the full hood.
