Hooped Beavers - Sewing Leg Holes

[G3TrapperNC]

When you put up Beavers on a hoop, I have read that you have to sew the leg holes closed. Any suggestions for doing this? Will they stay closed when you remove them from the hoop? Do you keep them sewn shut?

Thanks,

John

I never sew them as they dry better with out gathering them. the only thing I'd suggest is making your leg cuts small enough so when you put the beaver up the holes will look smaller.
