Curtain tie-backs

I guess I'll get the ball rolling....

Is it just me or does anyone else dislike how the curtain tie-backs are done? In our new 3023, the tie-backs have a single row of stitching holding the velcro to the fabric. Problem is, a single row of stitching really isn't sufficient, especially when the stitching itself is not very secure.

I have found that the I have to use both hands to open the tie-backs to keep from pulling the velcro off the fabric. I'd like to be able to add a second row of stitches but I don't have a portable sewing machine and am reluctant to unscrew the tieback from the wall...
