How do you code for a purse string closure?

To code for a purse string closure, start by creating a channel along the top edge of your fabric piece where the string will run. This can be done by folding over a portion of the fabric and stitching it down, leaving an opening at one end for the string to be fed through. Once the channel is prepared, use a safety pin or a bodkin to thread a strong cord or string through the channel. Finally, secure the ends of the string to prevent it from slipping out, and gather the fabric by pulling the string to create the closure.
