Tips for making the turtle wrapping

Even if you place the gift in the center of the cloth, the length of the corners tends to be uneven when you wrap it. After wrapping the gift and before starting to make the face, it is easier to choose in advance which corners you want for each of the face, feet, and shell (=the ongest one).
