I used exactly the same technique for my Toshis. The toshis were easier to get into, but I like the velcro straps a lot more for ease of use.
How do you feel about the fastening the velcro strap with your fingers going towards the finger-eating machine
That always bothered me.

Read around and click around here. I used one of these methods for several years with success.
