I recently purchased a chin pillow (commonly called a chin chum) for a violin. Problem is I cannot figure out how to attach it to the chin rest. All it is made of is thin foam covered with a felt material in the shape of a large tear drop. At the bottom is an elastic band, which I thought was supposed to some how wrap around the base of the violin. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to stay secure. Anyone know how this thing works?
