I have six chairs that need to be recovered. I went out and bought fabric, staple gun, ect. The only problem I am having is that I can't get the corners of the chairs to tuck smoothly. I keep geeting a fold when I staple the fabric down. How do I prevent this from happening? Am I suposed to cut the fabric a certain way?

I saved the info in my favorites, as I have a couple of chairs to do.
Thanks.
