Young mothers may feel that sewinga toy for your favorite child - it is difficult, and almost impossible, if you are not a professional seamstress. Especially for you it will be demonstrated that it is possible to make a nice toy without having any special skills. You only need to have an old and useless sock at hand. From it, a cute teddy bear will be sewn. And at the same time, you will be able to comprehend the basics of cutting and sewing. What do you need to sew a teddy bear?

An old sock. It is better to take a monophonic, and not variegated, because the bear will look so natural.

Threads. To pick up threads under the color of a sock, or to take black, or white.

Needle, scissors.

Filler. It is better to take cotton or sintepon.

Once the preparatory work is completed, you can proceed directly to sewing.

We take an unnecessary sock. It is desirable that it be monophonic.

Now you can proceed to the cutting of the future bear.

For beginners, it is necessary to clarify what iscutting. Cutting is cutting the material to create future products from it. Therefore, most often they use ready-made paper or cardboard patterns. Before you start cutting the fabric, you should first apply the outline of the future parts. What should you use for this? It is best to apply the outline with soap or chalk. These materials do not leave marks after washing. It is better to use a piece of soap with a sharp edge. Otherwise, you need to cut the edge of the soap for drawing. It is important that the appearance of the bear is excellent, because you are sewing a bear for your child. Felt-tip pens and a ballpoint pen are categorically not suitable! It is also not recommended to use a light pencil, because the mark will still remain, albeit weak.

Lay out the sock on the table and spread out the front side. The heel of a toe is obliged to look at you. Then, draw lines on it, like in the photo.

Arming with scissors. Start to gently cut the head of the future bear.

A narrow strip in the lower half of the head is cut off. Through the hole, which turned out in the end, it is necessary to fill the head of the future bear, chosen in advance filler.

Now you need to work with the remaining half of the sock. Let's start creating a torso.

Align the line that turned out after cutting the head.

After alignment, you should cut out the legs of the future bear.

You may be bothered by the bulge from the heel of the sock,but don't worry about it. Everything is as it should be, because this will be the future bear's bottom. You are sewing a sitting soft toy! Now you should trim the two pieces in the area of the elastic of the sock. They remained after cutting out the body itself. As a result, you have the bear's front paws.That's it. The details of the future bear are ready. Now you can start sewing.

To begin with, you should work on a patternproduct heads. Its upper area with ears is all open, so it is necessary to sew one edge. Check with the photograph that was located below. For clarity, this line of future tailoring is represented in red.

To sew a part, you have to unscrew the head part with the back side. Now we take a thread selected for the color of the part. Sewing edges is required by the suture seam.

Some young mothers do not know what an overlock stitch is. There is nothing complicated about it. When sewing with an overlock stitch, the needle should go like this (from right to left). Everything is shown in the picture.The overlock stitch is mainly used forovercasting edges or loops, as well as for hand-stitching two parts into a single whole. It helps the fabric not to fray and holds the halves of the canvas firmly. By the way, it is almost impossible to unravel such a seam, even if one edge of the thread miraculously comes free. This is what the bear's head looks like with the top edge sewn up:Now we turn the resulting part inside outside, and start stuffing with filler. You can use cotton wool or synthetic padding. The main thing is that the toy ends up being soft. Advice. First, you need to stuff the ears of the product, and then everything else. Now you need to sew the lower part of the body. To do this, turn the part inside out and sew it with an overlock stitch. In the photo, the seam line is shown in orange. Now turn the part right side out.Fill the body of the future bear with stuffing.The next step is to tighten the open edges of the bear's head and body. Take a needle and thread and stitch the open edges of the body of the product using the most common stitch called "Forward Needle". The stitches should not be too small, somewhere around 5-8 millimeters. Tighten the ends of the thread, then tie them with a couple of knots, and then cut off the excess ends. Do the same with the open bottom edge of the head. For the next part, you will need white knitted fabric. A regular white sock or an old snow-white T-shirt will do. Cut out an oval from the fabric, the size of which is approximately equal to half the bear's muzzle. Sew this part to the lower area of the bear's muzzle. Beforehand, put a little filler under the white oval piece of fabric so that this half of the muzzle becomes slightly convex. To sew the oval, use this type of overcast stitch:Connect the head and body together.Now it's time to work on the front paws. They need to be sewn in the same way as the head and body were sewn earlier. Turn the parts inside out, sew so that the bottom edge remains open. Turn the part right side out and fill it with cotton wool or padding polyester. Sew the paws to the body with an overcast stitch. Place them on the sides, but below the head. For the mouth, find a small black button, preferably with an eye, not with holes. It will look much better! The mouth can be made using three stitches of thread. Start the seam under the nose, and finish the work under it. Secure the thread. Make the bear's eyes. What materials? There are many options!

Black beads.
Black buttons.
White buttons with four holes to sew on with black thread using the "criss-cross" method.
Black circles, pre-cut from the material.
First, sew white circles of fabric, and on top – sulfur circles, but smaller in size – you will get pupils.

Let's create the bear's chest. From the white cloth that was used to create the muzzle, make the following detail:After which, it must be sewn to the chest.You can sew the apron not over the entire surface, but grab only the upper ends at the back – you will get a bib. That's it! The teddy bear is ready. Let your child enjoy the new toy, and in the meantime you will gain invaluable experience in cutting and sewing.
