Make a Soothing Eye Mask
What you need:
|
Step FiveThread 13" of elastic through the tube. When elastic reaches the edge of your tube, stitch back and forth to hold the elastic 1/8" from raw edges. Continue threading elastic through, stitching back and forth 1/8" from the other raw edge to secure elastic.

Sorry, I completely forgot to take a picture of the elastic threading. After turning the strap right side out, I was DONE with straps! :)
|
Step SixTake front piece of the outer mask and place it right side up. Place the strap on top of this piece, untwisted and centered from top to bottom and with raw edges matched. You MAY now decide to stitch the strap to the front mask to hold in place. OR You can place the back piece of the outer mask on top of the front piece, right sides together and pin in place, making sure the strap is untwisted and tucked 'inside'.

Step EightPour flax into opening of the inner mask. Using a 'hidden stitch', stitch opening closed. Learn how here:
