How to make it
1Fold the strip
Fold the fabric in half the long way, pretty side in. Pin it.
2Sew the long side
Stitch 1/4 in from the edge down the whole length.
3Turn it out
Pin a safety pin to 1 end and push it through the tube to flip it.
4Thread the elastic
Pin the safety pin to the elastic and feed it through. Hold the other end so it doesn't vanish.
5Join the elastic
Overlap the elastic ends 1/2 in. Sew back and forth over them.
6Close the tube
Tuck 1 raw end into the other. Stitch it shut by hand or machine.
Velvet and satin make the fanciest ones. Cotton is the friendliest to sew.
