 We have used a running stitch on these with no problems  !!   Just pack it 
 full  and plump and do not skimp.... they need to be filled to look and work 
 correctly !!  The only other suggestion.... Have a slow steady hand do the 
 pull cords... they sway easily and you need to have a good ,steady ,hand 
over 
 hand pull action.... no quick ,over excited. jerky movements !! 
>>This may sound silly, but. . .Has anyone ever used a kite string winder?  I 
am thinking of the one I once saw that has a handle like a fishing reel to 
twist the cord on easily and smoothly.
