I want to make a carpet that I can drape over the edge of a cube. Is this possible? And how can I do it.

Also is there a good tutorial on Flex Prims anywhere - I seem to have trouble figuring it out.

There is a bedspread on one of my beds (made by someone else) that has that effect. Flat prim on top, flat prims on the sides, and at the corners a few flexi-prims for the loosely draped cloth there. The corners shift a bit on their own. Seems to work best with solid colored fabric, or for small, regularly-spaced patterns, because of the near impossibility of lining up the textures for the flexi prims versus the normal prims.

Look at the beds that Stroker Serpentine sells for a few examples that do this.
