I failed to mention that the old top/trim no longer fits well over the top of the cabinet with the new, thicker cloth - I had to press them down in place to take the photos above.
I looked at the new tops today, and I am definitely using the new tops instead of the old ones. The new ones are microscopically larger than the old ones...by tiny fractions of an inch...and because of the new, thicker cloth, that is a very good thing. 
I'm calling it a day. Tomorrow I plan to start cutting trim to size and, hopefully, will get the cloth on the other cabinet as well. Then I'll need to glue trim to new tops...stain new tops/trim and bottom trim pieces...apply finish...add grain filler somewhere in there...if all goes well, these babies might be finished (or nearly so) next weekend...
