This master class contains the idea of a gift for February 14 daughter. You will learn how to sew a toy bunny.
Buy any most exotic toy todayabsolutely no problem. But the more choice in stores, the more valued exclusive handicrafts. Try sewing a cute bunny for your little girl, into which all your love and tenderness will be invested.To sew a cute bunny you will need:
- a piece of non-woven fabric, for example, a thin felt (I took pink);
- thread for sewing the appropriate shade (that they were not visible),
- sintepon,
- scissors, pencil and ruler;
- decorative elements - blue rhinestones on a sticky layer for the eyes, red threads for the nose, a ribbon bow for decoration.
We begin our creativity with cuttingthe necessary piece of cloth, it should be square – 15x15 cm. You can take more – as you wish, but less is not worth it – it will be inconvenient to work with such a small toy.Then mark the middles on three sides (7.5 cm from the corners) and draw an equilateral triangle with a pencil. The middles can be found without a ruler - by folding the sides in half.Next, take a thread and a needle and repeat thistriangle with regular stitches. A little trick – do not make a knot at the first stitch, but leave a tail, do not cut the thread and needle either. This way, the beginning and end of the sewing will be close.Form a small lump of padding polyester and place it in the center of the triangle.Then gently pull both ends of the threads, tightening the triangle.While tightening, make sure that the earsthe future bunny are formed symmetrically. Pull to the end, tie the two ends of the thread, and you will get a head with ears. The end of the thread without a needle can be cut off. To make the ears more neat, "grab" them a little with threads at the very base. Do not cut off the thread and needle!Straighten the ears and the bottom of the bunny. This is what the craft looks like at this stage. Turn the part of the craft that will form the bunny’s body inside out, as if putting it on the head.And start sewing the back seam. Just do it carefully so as not to catch the ears.Turn the toy inside out and fill the body with padding polyester.Sew along the bottom edge using regular stitches.And pull the bottom of the bunny. Only now can the thread be secured and cut off.This is what your bunny blank looks like.Now we need to make a tail. Cut a circle out of fabric.Sew it along the edges with regular stitches, insert a lump of padding polyester and pull it together. You will get a bunny tail like this.Sew it back into place.Now the most interesting part - let's get startedfinishing. This is my favorite stage, when you can show your imagination! I embroidered the nose with red threads, and for the sparkling eyes, blue rhinestones on a sticky layer were suitable, although they can be embroidered in the same way.Then we'll make a fancy bow from the ribbon and attach it in place.This is the bunny we got! Any girl will be delighted with such a gift!What else can be changed in this craft?Firstly, the main material for it. The square for the toy can be knitted or crocheted instead of cut out of fabric. A bunny made of such knitted fabric will look very interesting and unusual, since such material is more flexible. Secondly, you can sew paws for it, into which you can put a heart or a flower. Thirdly, you can show all your imagination in the decoration and decorate the craft in the most original way. As for my bunny, it turned out exactly like this!Let's attach a cute valentine to it and present the bunny as a gift for a wonderful holiday - Valentine's Day!Love and be loved!
