Sporran Craft
Make a sporran with your kids for St Andrew's Day!
You will need:
Brown craft foam
Brown embroidery thread
Embroidery needle
Button
Brown thick cord
Sporran template
Instructions:
Use our template to cut out the two pieces of the sporran from the craft foam.
Lay the smaller piece on top of the larger piece, matching up the edges, and
use blanket stitch to sew them together.
Make three tassels by wrapping the embroidery thread around four fingers
about 8 times. Slide the thread off your fingers. Tie a piece of thread about ¾
of an inch from one end to form the top of your tassel. Trim the loops at the
bottom. Make another two tassels in exactly the same way.
Stitch the three tassels and the button to the front of your sporran. On the
top flap make a small loop of thread by threading it through the foam and tying
two firm knots. Use the loop to hook around the button and close the loop.
Thread some thick cord through the fold at the top. Tie the cord around your
waist to wear your sporran!
