Materials List

• felt in your favorite color. Use the thickest felt you can find, because if the felt is too soft the clutch won't hold its shape. Decide which size you want your clutch to be and fold the felt piece in a way that the back side is at least 1/3 longer than the front
• Matching sewing thread (or fabric glue for a no-sew version)
• A piece of ribbon (ribbon leftovers are great for this project, they just have to be long enough to tie a bow)
