Snip and Cut the Drawstring Holes
How-to Pillowcase Skirt

Use a buttonhole stitch to strenthen the drawstring holes.

Rain Blanken
Find the side of your skirt that has the seam. This seam should be sewn all the way up the pillowcase. You will need to put a hole on each side of this seam for your drawstring.

Carefully snip a 1/2" long cut on each side. You can stop here, but if you want your drawstring holes to be durable, you should take the time to sew the above 'buttonhole stitch' along each opening.

Now you'll thread the drawstring to finish.
