You Will Need (4 things)

  • A Needle
  • Embroidery Thread in assorted colours
  • Felt in assorted colours
  • A Passport

Steps (7 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut out a piece of felt slightly larger than your passport is when it is opened up (this will depend on whether or not you have a new style or old style passport, so measure your own to be sure).
    Then cut two pieces that are the same height as the piece you've just cut and approx 5 cm wide and a fourth piece as pictured.

  2. 2

    Using contrasting felt, cut out and appliqué a seasonal motif to the front left had side of the larger piece of felt that you have just cut. We've gone for a lovely summery lollypop design :-)

  3. 3

    Turn this large piece face down and arrange the three smaller pieces on top as pictured.

  4. 4

    Blanket stitch all the pieces together just around the outside edge.

  5. 5

    Slip the front cover of your passport inside the flap you have just stitched, and the back cover into the other one.

  6. 6

    Book a fabulous holiday and see other holidaymakers admire your snazzy passport cover!

  7. 7

    Get creative! We made them for the whole family but spent so much money on felt that we couldn't afford to go on holiday. Sadface.
