What I did is cut the veneer overlapping both of them. I used a pattern made with a 3 mm plywood and then joint the profile with a adhesive tape. So I used hide glue and a veneer hammer to glue it, used a press with clamps and in the end use the saw table to cut the final size and angles.
Good luck and greeting from Spain.
