INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Use a ruler or fabric measuring tape to find the spot on the fabric that is 0.25 to 0.5in (0.64 to 1.27cm) from the edge, and then make the first fold here. With your fabric facing right (print) side down, fold over the edges of the fabric. Fold the fabric in towards the center of the piece of fabric so that the raw edges will be hidden. Make these folds along any adjoining edges where you want a mitered corner to be. Measure from the folded edge with a ruler or fabric measuring tape. Fold the edges in the same way as before, but make the fold as wide as you want the border on your item to be. For example, if you want a 1 inch (2.5cm), then make a 1 inch (2.5cm) fold along each of the edges. This second fold will completely hide the raw edges on your fabric. Repeat this second fold on all of the edges you have already folded. After you have folded an edge, use an iron to press it. Run the iron up and down the folded edge of the fabric a few times to press it. This will make a crease in the fabric, which will make it easier to identify where to sew the corners. Repeat this on all of the folded edges. After you have finished ironing the last folded edge, open up the second fold you made in the fabric so that you can see the crease. This will be your guide for determining where to sew the mitered corner. Make sure to leave the first fold you made. Do not unfold it. Repeat this for each of the edges.

SUMMARY: Fold over the edges of the fabric by 0.25 to 0.5in (0.64 to 1.27cm). Fold again to the width you want your border to be. Press the folded fabric with an iron. Open up the last fold you made so that the crease is visible.

Fit the goggles to your head by putting the eye cups up to your eyes so that they suction to your face, and then with your thumbs, move the strap behind your head so that your goggles are firmly in place.
