Thread the Drawstring

Make a Pillowcase Skirt

Use a safety pin to make threading easier.

Rain Blanken
Measure out a piece of ribbon that is 4" longer than the waist of your skirt.

Attach a safety pin to the ribbon and push it through one drawstring hole. Scrunch it through the fabric until it comes out of the other hole. Remove the safety pin and you're done.
