Allow a 2" tail at both ends. • Draw a line on the wrong side of the fabric where the elastic is to go (this could be the line on a pattern where a casing is suggested). • Place the elastic over the line and under the foot and needle - sew a few straight stitches backward and forward to secure the elastic. • Stretch the elastic gently to give the fullness desired. • When you reach the other end, secure in the same manner as the beginning. • Even out the gathers.
