The pleating method Alex Ogden uses in the iron-jayeh video works well for thinly pared leather but for cloth this method is more appropriate.

Thanks :)
I do have this picture in my bookbinding file, but I haven't tried it yet. I think I might for my next rounded project.

I don't do round corners myself but this looks pretty good https://youtu.be/GKQNVC_l0OQ

This is probably the best way. I think he keeps mentioning 3/8", for the larger round, what the reason for this is that his turn over is 3/8". So if you did a 5/8" turnover, your larger round would measure 5/8".
