FELT WALLET

Felt! It is a perfect fabric for getting kids starting with basic stitching and tailoring concepts...because there is no need for hemming and you can always get out the glue with the going gets tough.

My son is proud to keep his pocket money in this little wallet he made all by himself. The stitches are beginners stitches but they keep the coins in! And that's all that matters.

Decorations are easily cut out of felt and can be glued on first...you may want to help by adding a few stitches later on for staying power.

Bean bags, wall pockets, frames...have a felt fest soon.
