Step 3Sew fabric & notions
Cut a fabric swatch a little larger than your original circle. It should be large enough to fold over the underside to form a seam.
Cut a straight line from the outside to the middle of the fabric just as you did for the foam. Don't forget to also cut out your grommet hole.
Spread the tacky glue on the top.
Line up the center of the fabric with the center of the tops. Put a little glue where the fabric will overlap and press flat. Some fabric will allow the glue to bleed through but most of the time it will be invisible when it dries.
Fold a part of the fabric over to the underside and start sewing. I've found pleating the excess fabric before sewing gives a flatter finish. Do this one pleat at a time. If you really have a lot of excess fabric inside trim it off.
