DIY toys: simple master classes, the best patterns, interesting ideas.

As the great Coco Chanel said, “Handmade things are a luxury. It is not at all necessary for everyone to have them. Anyone who wants to have them makes them himself or pays the master for his work. "

The stuffed toy is the first teddy bear association. But there is much more to the concept of a soft toy. This is an interior toy Tilda, and funny toys in a car, and much more. This article contains various types of soft toys, as well as techniques for their implementation and step-by-step master classes.



Types of soft toys with your own hands

Such toys can be divided into several subspecies: for children and adults, interior toys, with practical use (for example, a needle bed).



Also, toys can be divided according to the type of material used: fur, from cotton or linen fabrics, from felt, from fancy fabrics.



Folk toys have gained particular popularity today, as well as soft toys made in national handicraft techniques.

DIY soft fur toy

This handmade fur toy is especially warm and beautiful. For sewing it, you can use both natural and artificial fur. With an artificial one, of course, it is much easier to work, but having decided to sew a toy with natural fur you will receive a unique designer toy! First you need to decide on the pattern of the toy, the more ready product, the easier it will be to work. Small details are especially difficult for beginners.



Circle the parts and cut with a 0.5 cm margin for the seam. Unlike fabric, it is best not to use scissors when working with fur. If you don't have a tailor's knife, use a sharp utility knife. Cut with sharp, short strokes, do not drive the knife deeply so as not to cut the fur.



Sew the fur, it is necessary to apply two front sides to each other and straighten the fur outward. After sewing the toy, it is necessary to leave a small hole through which the toy is turned inside out and filled with filler. Previously, toys were stuffed with cotton wool, pieces of tissue remnants.

But such stuffing dries for a very long time during washing and often after cleaning the toy was thrown away only because the stuffing was not dry enough and mold appeared inside. Modern fillers are made of synthetic materials (synthetic winterizer and others), which dry quickly and well, do not go astray and retain their shape. Having stuffed it, it remains to sew with a blind seam.



The final touch is the eyes, nose and mouth. You can embroider yourself, or you can buy ready-made accessories in a store.

DIY felt soft toy

Today felt toys are the most popular at children's master classes and handicraft circles. But they appeared not so long ago, and there is even an exact date of their appearance.



Margaret Steiff and her first dolls

The enterprising German woman Margaret Steiff submitted an idea to a housewife magazine to sew soft toy do it yourself from felt. In the magazine absolutely free, Margaret published a pattern and detailed master Class. But in a note she said where exactly you can buy felt for such toys.

Such a move in 1879 made it possible to found a toy empire in just a few years. The nuance was that the toys were both sewn at the factory, and blanks for toys that could be sewn on their own were sold. She left the empire to her children and grandchildren, and gave the world a fashion for a soft toy.

DIY soft toys made of fabric

Cloth toys appeared much earlier than felt ones. But with the advent of fur and plush toys, they were unfairly forgotten for a while.

The most popular interior toy today is Tilda.



When you look at the Tilda doll, you get the feeling that the roots of this toy go far back to the Middle Ages. Not at all. Tilda's appearance was in the 90s of the last century by the young designer Tony Finnanger. The girl was full of ideas and one of the many ideas was Tilda. Today it is impossible to imagine a gentle home interior without her. And craftswomen from all over the world are simply in love with Tony's idea and create prototypes to their liking.

The 120-centimeter Birdman begins to play the flute, and the birds sitting on his left hand turn their heads to the sounds of the instrument. The working mechanism is made of stainless steel. The limbs and head of the toy are porcelain. The robes are made of natural satin, silk and velvet.

If you want the toy to have fur, flannel is taken. This cotton fabric has a flecked surface. We can also use velvet or artificial fur. If in the process of sewing the workpiece should stretch well, craftsmen use knitted fabrics.

The nature of the man-made animal, in part, depends on the nature of the fabric. So, from fleecy, dense, woolen fabrics, bristly wolves, serious, at times, sullen characters are obtained. Cute, friendly and cunning foxes, bunnies, bears are good from the same velvet.

Making toys from rubber bands

Similar toys were made in Soviet times. But, then, rubber cords were used to weave the figures, for example, from droppers. They were cut into strips and began to form fish, robots, butterflies. The work was done manually. A machine has been created for modern versions.

Making toys out of paper

Now paper toys have completely migrated into the hand-made sphere. But, earlier crafts from sheets were produced on an industrial scale. How to make a toy out of paper factory people began to study at the beginning of the 19th century. Toga, the first paper doll was produced in 1810.

  • Separate the top of the resulting figure with a pin (about a quarter of the total size).

  • We fill everything that is not separated by a pin with the material chosen for stuffing and sew along the edges.
  • We sew the end of the corner that has not yet been connected to the finished part (body) of the toy. This will serve as a head and beak.

  • You can embellish an owl for every taste. One of the options is focusing on ready-made pattern, cut off a circle slightly smaller than the bottom of the toy. We process it with some kind of hard material and sew it to the bottom of the toy. This will serve as a stand.
  • The eyes can be bought either ready-made or cut out of felt. For the eyes, we cut out white circles corresponding to the size of the head from felt (the color of the eyes can also be done as desired).
