Updated:  I improved the instructions and fixed a few errors.  Please refer to this instructable instead:

I feel the tiniest bit like Houdini - I came up with a way to make the fabric box with no hand stitching and no seam binding...

Here we go

This is improved version 2.0 of the fabric box I tried to make in my other recent instructable: http://www.instructables.com/id/fabric-covered-storage-box-with-custom-dimensions/.  Forget that one and use this one instead.  I think its much easier.
