Stitch your own Wonder Cracker, an innovative, reusable fabric cracker designed to be pulled apart with a snap. It is an environmentally friendly and cost effective alternative to the traditional paper cracker.

This 18 page A4 booklet provides detailed instructions and diagrams outlining how to stitch the cracker from fabric, stiffen it with buckram to provide structure and how to add that all-important snap. The cracker can be reused again and again, with the option of adding a new snap each time. The pattern also includes recommended fabric choices and useful advice for creating multiple crackers.
