Adding the Elastic Strap for Sewing a Sleeping Mask

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Candi Cane-Canncel with Expert Village. I'm just going to start pinning it around and you want o make sure that line up very, very well. When you?re working with two kind of nappy fabrics they attendance?s to catch on one another. This is where it would have to help if I had of cut them out together cause the would have been exactly the same size but they are matching up pretty well. Just go ahead all the way around and start pinning. What we are going to do actually sew from here going all the way around and leave the opening near the nose so that we can turn it inside out. Ok, once you start pinning it you can figure out the placement for your elastic. What I like to do is kind of put it right in the center on the side and again I'm going to make sure this is going to work. I'm actually going to make it a little bit smaller. Stick your elastic in making sure it's really flat then your going to bring it to the edge. Again, working with this nappy fabric it does have the attendances to catch on itself so you might have to repine a few times to its perfect. Once it's all pin the next step is going to be sewing."
