Involvement of this child's work will help you to spend time with great pleasure and profit, as a result of which you will receive a beautiful soft toy - a turtle. So, for making such a toy, we need to prepare:

small cuts of cotton or calico fabric of suitable color (for example, green for head and paws, brown for shell);
paper patterns;
any filler (foam rubber, sintepon or ordinary cotton wool);
beads or small buttons for the eyes;
sewing needle, thread, pins and scissors.

Also, take the appropriate creative mood, which will help you in creating this original toy. The order of the work:

To begin with, you need to make patterns for the details of the futurea soft toy on a tracing paper or plain paper: two details of a turtle's head, two details of a tail, two parts of a shell about thirty centimeters in diameter (the lower part of the shell must be slightly smaller than the top), eight details of paws (two for each of four).

We transfer all the details of the pattern to the prepared fabric: for this we pin with pins the patterns of the parts to the material, we draw and cut.

To make the shell of the turtle a little bulging, on the top of the carapace, cut from the fabric, make four darts, as shown in the photo.

Then we sew the details of the paws and the head of the turtle, which is not very tightly stuffed with filler, and also its tail (it is not necessary to fill the tail with sintepon).

Next we sew the parts of the shell (upper and lower), leaving holes for packing and sewing the head, paws and tail of the soft toy.

Manually, using a secret seam, sew all the details in certain places along the circumference of the shell so that the cavities of the head and paws are connected to the cavity of the tortoise shell.

After the carcase is completely stuffed, it is necessary to sew the tail of the turtle and sew the hole using a secret seam.

The final stage of our master class is sewing black beads or buttons (eyes) in certain places of the turtle's head.

The work is finished, and a wonderful soft toy, made by own hands, is ready! To produce it, we used materials that can be found in every home. Such a tortoise can serve your child notonly your favorite toy: it can be used as a cushion, with which it will be happy to fall asleep.

To do this, you first need to make a pattern of the toy. It's so simple that you can easily make it with your own hands, using the appropriate drawing. Then it is necessary to translate the pattern on the fabric,folded twice, fasten it, circle and cut out the details of the bears from the fabric. By connecting the details of the teddy bears to the inside, we sew them together, not forgetting to leave gaps for the eversion of the toy and filling with the synthepon or any other filler. We turn out the toy and stuff it with filler, and the more filler there is, the nicer and lush the soft toy will be. At the final stage with the help of beads orbuttons, make a teddy bear's eyes and nose, and also use embroidery with a thick thread to form the mouth. That's all, our teddy bear is ready. It can be dressed, sewing separately panties and a T-shirt. Also, one can make soft toys in the form of a cat or a cat, an elephant, a horse and many other animals, using various patterns and natural fabrics. The principle of creating a toy remains the same: we make a pattern, we cut out two details of a figure from a fabric, we sew them face to each other, leaving gaps for eviction of a toy. Fill the figure with any filler. At your discretion, make out the face of the toy, using your imagination and improvised materials (threads for the cat's whiskers, beads for the eyes, a ribbon for the mouth). Such toys can be made with a frame, using for its creation a metal bending wire, and for its installation - pliers and an awl.
