"Okay so now that we've made the little drawstring stop that we wanted to make with the two little casing holes what we're going to do is run these two drawstrings through those two holes. And I'm going to take out the knot that I had on there earlier. There we go. I'm just going to smooth them out. And you'll be able to see from the hole, how they lay. Then we want them to lay in there just like this. We don't want one twisted like this or anything like that. we want them to be right there on top. And so I'm going to put the safety pin right here. And I'm not going to worry about turning this one under just because I'm only going an inch distance and it shouldn't pull through the fabric doing that short of a distance. Okay, and so what I'm going to do is grab this and put it through the first hole. There we go. And you might need to close it around it a tiny bit. And here it is. There, it's on there. And now, make sure this one's straight. They're both on there straight. Find that hole. You slip the safety pin in there and if you have to, like I said just fold it over the safety pin a little bit. Here it is. See, to me this is a little bit more difficult way. The way I do it. The way I'm more comfortable. But this one looks really, really good. So there we go. Okay, so in the next clip I'm going to show you how to put on this drawstring stop with out having to make it. You can just make it on top of the strap. So we'll do that next."
