This is such a small job, that many of us who do have a sewing machine, would prefer the good old needle and thread
just because it is easier and quicker. I'm sure there are videos online illustrating how to sew. Who said it was hard?

Yes, I will bump this very old post of mine with the "velcro fix" that will work for just about any pillows mask. Thanks to those of you who asked, the first post has the details, and, on page 7 of the many posts, Janknitz has a very good picture of the fix and very good sewing, I might add! I have just did it as I stated in the first post, but Janknitz, chunkyfrog and others just sowed them in! Hope this fix continues to help those who have the problem of the back strap slipping!
All the best,
Steve

Thanks for the PM! I hope it will help you, as well as newbies! Yes I will bump this very old post of mine for the fix I came up with, back in the day, for the back strap riding up! I still use it to this day----it has helped many forum members it appears by the posts! Also note that chunkyfrog and Janknitz just use the sewing method to attach the velcro to the back strap, which is a perfect way to apply it!

See Dog Slobber's solution at viewtopic.php?f=1&t=184409&p=1412428#p1412428

I can confirm it works great with a Swift FX.
