Throw together a scrap bag

2. Pin the folded bag together, leaving an opening at the top.		3. Sew up the open sides using backstitch.


4. Turn inside out and fill up with lentil beans.		5. To finish off stitch up the hole at the top.


6. Decorate your scrap bag. Sew or use PVA glue to attach the faces.		7. Play catch, juggle or set up a target practice...make up the rules yourself!
