When a woman gives birth to a child, shethe question inevitably arises when to buy toys for a baby. However, not all toys will be useful and interesting for a child. Toy manufacturers have flooded the market with a variety of products that are not cheap. When buying items for young children, it is necessary to consider the baby's safety. A soft developmental cube will be an ideal toy for a baby! For work, you need to prepare the following materials:

multi-colored pieces of cloth, square, the right size (6 pieces);
non-woven fabric;
filler;
elements for development (buttons, beads, ribbons, felt and so on);
thread, needle, sewing machine (the latter is not necessary).

Now let's move on to the sewing itself.First, cut out squares from the fabric, especially if this was not done at the preparation stage. Cut out squares from interlining, with a side one and a half centimeters smaller than those cut out of the fabric. Place the interlining on the canvas and iron it so that it sticks. Decorate each square. In other words, make an applique, embroider decorative elements, beads, buttons, and so on. It all depends on your imagination. In the example presented, the design will be as follows:

The first element will be a spiral with beads,which move. It is best to draw a spiral with a vanishing marker so as not to leave any traces. We take a strong matter (mesh) and cut out the square, and then put it on the drawn spiral. Now we spend and put beads inside.
Next square draw with a butterfly,which will rustle the wings. Put the fabric in half, and then draw a butterfly. Under the canvas, put rustling cellophane, and then stitch along the contour. Cut out the details, and cut at the crease of 1-2 millimeters. On one layer there should be a longitudinal section. Turn it out. Laces will serve as shoelaces, we add them in half and then we sew them in zigzag in a suitable place. Butterfly is also sewn in zigzag. We close the cut with the tape and bend the edges.
The next square is decorated with buttons. There is nothing complicated. Different buttons in shape, size and color are sewn randomly.
Pitch on the next side of the string zigzag. For strength, it is necessary to sew a piece of felt from the inside under each button, and also that the thread is tightly bound.
From a fleecy fabric, make a rabbit.
On the other side, make an application of birds with movable legs made of felt. We sew the legs in this way, like the antennae of a butterfly.
You can also make moving hearts.

You can complement the product with ribbons of different textures.Now all that remains is to sew the cube and fill it. First, sew four squares in one line. Now sew the remaining edges. Secure the seams and do the same with the interlining. Sew the pattern so that you get a cube. Join two edges and fold the allowance of the third inside the product. Secure the folded corner with a pin so as not to sew it accidentally. Sew on the interlining. When sewing the last edge, leave an unsewn hole in the corner. Now all that remains is to turn the product inside out, stuff it with filler, and then sew the hole with a blind stitch.That's it! The original cube is ready!Let's start sewing another original toy. This time it will be made of felt. Some craftswomen may have an unwilling question: what kind of material is felt? It is the oldest fabric known to mankind. It is resistant to bad weather, snow, so it is often used when sewing outerwear, shoes, etc. Modern felt is a combination of natural and synthetic fibers. Therefore, the material is durable and long-lasting. Making a beautiful toy from felt is easy, you just need to choose the right materials for the pattern and do everything step by step. To sew original birds, you will need the following materials:

felt measuring 10x15 centimeters - for the bird's body;
a fabric of color tincture for a tummy, the size of which is 5х8 centimeters;
Felt, the size of which is 5x8 centimeters for the area around the eyes;
small pieces of felt will be needed to create a beak, bow, paws and hairs;
a pair of peepholes for toys, their diameter should be 6 millimeters if the eyes are black, and if they are colored, then their diameter should be 7.5 millimeters;
strong thread, its length will be about 17 centimeters, it is necessary for a loop, so that the toy can be suspended;
filler;
scissors, needle, thread.

All patterns can be downloaded and saved onpersonal computer, and then print them at 100% scale. Cut out the patterns. After that, you should put the pattern on the fabric, and then carefully cut out the details. To make it easier, use a disappearing marker to apply the contours of the pattern or outline the detail with soap or chalk.After which, it is necessary to add details to the tummyTreat the edges with glue called Fray Check. It helps the fabric not to crumble. The glue must dry so that you can continue working with the material. The pattern shows the arrangement of the parts of the future bird relative to each other. Sew the tummy to the front half of the body of the future product with small basting stitches. Place the area for the eyes on the front half of the body and carefully sew it to the body with small stitches. Place the beak in the center and leave the upper area unsewn. Use a toothpick to insert a bunch of filler (padding polyester, cotton wool, etc.) inside the product. After the bird is stuffed, you can sew up the hole with a blind stitch. You should work on the back of the bird. From the wrong side, sew a V-shaped opening on the top of the head. Fold the thread in half. It is necessary for hanging the toy. Sew a loop on the top of the bird's head. Then sew on a bunch of hair. Let's work on the bird's eyes. If you already have ready-made eyes, then simply sew them to the desired place on the toy's head. You can use smooth and shiny beads for the eyes. If the eyes are on a washer, then you need to carefully make a cutout for the eyes with scissors, and then fix them in this area. Embroider eyelashes on the head, namely on the outer corners, make eyebrows a little higher. Finally, you can sew on a bow!We combine the front and back parts of the bird's body, andthen sew together. Leave a small opening to finally stuff the toy with stuffing. After that, sew the opening with a blind stitch. Do everything carefully and slowly! Sew on the bird's paws. That's it, the toy for your child is ready! Your baby will be able to play with a bird all day long, which cannot be compared with any other. Once you try sewing soft toys, it will be difficult to stop. You will be able to improve your skills, and each time you will get better and better. However, your child will have many soft toys with which he will not only play, but also talk, and you will be able to be proud of yourself and your talents!
