A method of constructing a water-resistant corner for a tent or other fabric structure, and the corner formed therefrom. A protective panel may be laid over a flooring material sheet, and the sheet and the protective panel are folded into a corner. The formed corner may then be turned inside out, so that the protective panel is located on the outside of the newly-formed corner. The protective panel thereby covers the outermost corner of the flooring, and the seam formed at that corner. An interior waterproof layer, such as a waterproof sealing tape, may be attached on the inside of the inverted corner to act as a further moisture barrier.

What is claimed is: 1. A method of constructing a corner in a tent, a canopy, or a tarpaulin, comprising: attaching two portions of a first sheet of fabric material so as to form a three-dimensional corner, the attachment of the two portions forming a seam; turning the three-dimensional corner inside out to form an inverted, three-dimensional corner; extending a second sheet of fabric material over an interior portion of the inverted, three-dimension corner so as to cover at least a portion of the seam; and forming a tab on an apex of the inverted three-dimensional corner by pinching the apex of the inverted three-dimensional corner together and connecting the pinched apex to form the tab. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising attaching a loop to the tab. 3. A tent having a corner formed in accordance with the method of claim 1. 4. The tent of claim 3, further comprising a tub floor, and wherein each corner of the tub floor is fanned in accordance with the method of claim 1. 5. A method of constructing a corner for a floor tub of a tent or canopy, comprising: attaching two portions of a two layer fabric material so as to form a three-dimensional corner, the attachment of the two portions forming a seam, the two layer fabric material comprising a first layer of fabric material extending against a second layer of fabric material, the three-dimensional corner being configured so that the second layer of fabric material extends over an interior portion of the three-dimensional corner; turning the three-dimensional corner inside out to form an inverted, three-dimensional corner wherein the second layer of fabric material extends over an exterior portion of the inverted, three-dimensional corner; attaching walls of the tent or canopy to the floor tub;and forming a tab On an apex of the inverted three-dimensional corner by pinching the apex of the inverted three-dimensional corner together and connecting the pinched apex to form the tab. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the two portions of the two layer fabric material are attached so that excess materials for the two portions at the seam extend adjacent to one another and on an exterior of the three-dimensional corner, and wherein turning the three-dimensional corner inside out comprises turning the excess materials toward an interior portion of the inverted, three-dimensional corner. 7. The method of claim 6, further comprising, arranging the excess materials to one side of the seam and extending a second sheet of fabric material over the interior portion. 8. The method of claim 5, further comprising extending a second sheet of fabric material over the interior portion. 9. The method of claim 5, wherein the first and second portions of the two layer fabric material are attached by stitching. 10. The method of claim 5, wherein the first layer of fabric material includes a first notch formed therein and defining first side edges, and wherein the second layer of fabric material includes a second notch defining second side edges, and wherein the first side edges are aligned with the second side edges. 11. The method of claim 5, wherein the inverted three-dimensional caner comprises three sides, and wherein the second layer of fabric material extends over an exterior portion of each of the three sides of the inverted three-dimensional corner. 12. The method of claim. 11, farther comprising extending a second sheet of fabric material over the interior portion. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the second sheet of fabric material comprises a sealing tape. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the sealing tape comprises a waterproof sealing tape. 15. The method of claim 5, further comprising attaching a loop to the tab. 16. A tent having a floor tub with at least one corner formed in accordance with the method of claim 5. 17. The tent of claim 16, wherein each corner of the tub floor is formed in accordance with the method of claim 5. 18. A method of constructing a corner for a floor tub of a tent or canopy, comprising: attaching two portions of a two layer fabric material so as to form a three-dimensional corner, the two layer fabric material having a notch cut therein, the notch defining two inner edges along which the two portions are attached, the attachment of the two portions forming a seam, the two layer fabric material comprising a first layer of fabric material extending against a second layer of fabric material, the three-dimensional corner being configured so that the second layer of fabric material extends over an interior portion of the three-dimensional corner; turning the three-dimensional corner inside out to form an inverted, three-dimensional corner wherein the second layer of fabric material extends over an exterior portion of the three-dimensional corner, sealing a second sheet of fabric material to an interior of the inverted, three-dimensional corner; attaching walls of the tent or canopy to the floor tub; and forming a tab on an apex of the inverted three-dimensional corner by pinching the apex of the inverted three-dimensional corner together and connecting the pinched apex to form the tab. 19. The method of claim 18, wherein the second sheet of fabric material comprises a sealing tape. 20. The method of claim 19, wherein the sealing tape comprises a waterproof sealing tape. 21. The method of claim 18, wherein the sealing tape is welded to the interior. 22. The method of claim 18, further comprising attaching a loop to the tab. 23. A tent having a floor tub with at least one corner formed in accordance with the method of claim 18. 24. The tent of claim 23, wherein each corner of the tub floor is formed in accordance with the method of claim 18.
