"Ok, now that we've got our tank top inside out, and we are turning it into our bag and we pulled all these little holes through. We are going to start to glue these together. We want to glue all these openings together. You can use your fingers to glue them together or you can use a paint brush to paint them together. So, you want to take a fabric glue and a tacky glue is going to be one and the same or you can get a specific fabric glue. And you are going to take your openings and you are just start placing glue along the seams. And work in those together and it's going to be nice and sticky which is what you want. And you are just going to repeat the same for all your openings, just work it together if you use the tip of your nozzle and just allow it to get really sticky and start sticking together. And once it dries, it's not going to be sticky anymore so you don't have to worry about that, you just want to try and seal those in a little. Now if you don't, you'll still be ok but what's going to happen is you're going to get change and all kinds of things in those little openings, so you are going to have to dig around, so I just like to seal them to prevent myself from having a headache. So I'm going to seal these closed. And I'm just going to continue on all this ruching and then we're going to apply an applique over it to tuck it all in and cover it so you'll never even see those ends that have been glued together. So it's really going to have a nice effect on it."
