1. Cut circle 20 inches in diameter.

2. Cut elastic 17 ½ inches long.

3. Fold up ¾ inch casing around the circle. Pin as you fold to hold in place. Sew casing on machine. Leave an opening about 1 inch or 1 ½ inches wide to thread the elastic through. The fabric will gather or pucker as you sew the casing.
4. Fasten a safety pin in one end of the elastic to help thread it through the casing. Begin threading through the casing. Put a pin through the loose end of elastic and the casing to hold it so that it won't pull all the way through the casing as you thread it through. The elastic is much shorter than the casing around the circle.

5. Sew ends of elastic together by hand and overlapping the two ends about ¾ inch.

6. Smooth area of opening and push sewn ends of elastic into opening of casing. Stitch opening closed being careful not to catch in the elastic.

7. Smooth gathers evenly around the circle.
