Divide elastic and the waist of skirt into quarters with pins or chalk. Pin the elastic to the inside of the skirt and the pressed-down seam allowance, matching the 4 points of the elastic to the 4 points on the skirt. Sew with a zig-zag stitch, stretching the elastic to fit the fabric as you go. Fold over, pin the quarters to mark it and zig-zag again, stretching the elastic. Sorry that I have no pictures of these steps... I was really into this last step since it was the home stretch (get it, stretch?) and couldn't stop my flow.
