Nope, I don't sew them. They usually stay rolled once they're inside. I've never tried tying a string to one, but I'm sure that would be easy enough, I've never had any trouble removing them without one though.
If I have a really, really light period the tampon'll come unrolled when I remove it, otherwise the blood pretty much holds it in the roll.
I'm the same way, I'm not a big fan of pads and I have tried the MoonCup but I much prefered these tampons to it. It takes a couple months of experimenting to get the sizing just right, but they really do work wonderfully. I hope your friend will have luck with them also!
