"In this clip I’m going to be showing you how to sew the tabs together. First you’re going to take your tab and you’re going to fold it length wise and you’re going to sew the edge of it right here and you can put the straight pins so that it holds it together…and since the width was 3 inches this should be 1 ½ since it’s in half. So we’re going to sew this down and now that we’ve done that we’re going to turn it inside out, oh this was inside out we’re going to turn it right side out and just open where the hole is and just push it through with your fingers and with the thing like this, this way you won’t see the seam we’ve just made. And now we’re going to fold it in half length wise so you’ll have a skinny panel and make sure that you make these two ends meet also and you’re going to sew those down. Now we have one tab top."
