When making it, I found the secret to keeping Felicity inside was to use a double layer of netting spaced about 2" apart, and not pulling anything tight. Because it's loose, when she pushes on it trying to get through, it gives with her and she gets nowhere. After trying all the obvious escape routes she finally gave up trying to get out.
