Adorable Chickens from Lydia Kalambet

I have long wanted to make chickens. Once I even kept it on the farm, but that was in the past. Chickens exude some kind of warmth and comfort, the beginning of life. They can be filled with herbal or vanilla scent.

And I also wanted to do cold porcelain, decorate figures or flowers, but my hands did not reach, but it was cold. the porcelain has already been cooked ... and it turned out to be of such high quality. What a life ... no time ... no hands ...

The idea came to combine these two materials: fabric and porcelain, thereby saving the hall. porcelain from the inevitable release and embodying the idea with chickens .. One evening, sitting right at the computer, in one fell swoop, stuck beaks for chickens and eyes with beads. The next day it all dried up and it was possible to work. Since I fundamentally do not use other people's patterns, I have developed my own, not complicated, but quite effective. I dug up the necessary pieces in a huge box with rags and started sewing. There are two types of wings on the pattern: overhead and sewn-in. Both look good. Sewing large parts is not difficult, and the rest is superimposed on top and sewn or glued. These are my prototypes, now I will refine and improve (after all, the stuck-on beaks and eyes have already been prepared), which I advise you too. The bottom can be made by sewing on a covered piece of a circle made of cardboard or plastic. A chicken coop will certainly appear in my kitchen! The seams and joining of the appliqués can be tinted with coffee, cinnamon and cocoa or regular pastels. And ... enjoy life and your fragrant chicken farm.

I suggest all needlewomen to sew a rooster out of fabric with their own hands. Why him? Because the coming year will be held under the auspices of the Red or Fiery Rooster. This is what the Chinese calendar promises.

Those needlewomen who have never sewed textile toys will need an interesting pattern of a rooster made of fabric to make the original symbol of the year 2017. step-by-step description this process. This is what will be discussed.

What materials to choose and how to sew a rooster with your own hands

Everyone knows that this bird is colorful and bright. Therefore, all materials for making a rooster with your own hands from fabric must meet these requirements.

Cotton wool or synthetic winterizer is useful for stuffing. Since the fabric rooster is on soft paws, it will have to be planted on a horizontal surface. But you can "teach" him to stand if a rigid frame made of thick wire is inserted inside the legs and body.

DIY fabric rooster patterns

First you need to choose the appropriate option. For the toy that is proposed above, this pattern is suitable.

If you want to make the symbol of the year so that it looks more like a living one, then you will need pieces of fur of different shades. Then artificial fur will imitate the feathers of a bird. By the way, there may be another pattern for a rooster made of fabric. For example this.

But simply choosing them online is not enough. If you print them, they will turn out to be small. And the toys will become tiny as a result. To increase the patterns of fabric cockerels, you will need to open the saved file in any graphic editor... In it, increase the size of the image. Then print on several sheets of paper. All that remains is to put them together to use in fabric work.

To do this, they are supposed to be transferred to cardboard.

This will make it easier to attach patterns to the fabric.

Step-by-step instructions on how to sew a rooster with your own hands:

Circle the parts, leaving a seam allowance. It should be at least 1.5 cm, and preferably 2 cm. Be sure to pay attention to the fact that the paired details of the rooster from different types fabrics should be outlined on the same material. Moreover, every second detail must certainly be turned upside down in order to get a mirror image.

Cut out all the details.

Sew the parts of the pattern in pairs from the wrong side, here it is supposed to leave a gap of a few centimeters so that the part can be turned out and stuffed. It is better to leave this gap on an inconspicuous part.

Turn out, fill them with filler, except for the eyebrow. Sew up the gaps.

It remains to connect all the parts with each other. You can make the wings moveable. To do this, they need to be fastened on buttons of a suitable color and size. So you can make various cockerels from fabric with your own hands.

The eyes of this symbol of the year can be sewn from matching fabric pieces or round buttons. Someone recommends drawing the eyes of a rooster. Then you need helium pens. And you can fix the picture with a transparent acrylic varnish from a spray can.

The second version of the cockerel made of fabric-fur

This toy requires a rigid frame throughout the figure. It should be stretched from paws to head and tail. The beginning of production is similar to what was described earlier.

The differences are noticeable at the stage of connecting the pieces of the body, since the pattern of the cockerel from the fabric is not formed by whole parts. First, from the seamy side, it is supposed to sew the details of the breast with the abdomen and body. Then turn the workpiece to the right side.

Now is the time to sew the two halves of the head, leaving a gap for the stuffing. Do the same with the wings.

Insert a wire frame inside the body, from which to leave leads for the details of the tail and legs. Ponytail wires can simply be pierced through the fabric.

Give the body and head volume, that is, fill them with filler. Sew them together. There is no need to fill the wings. If you wish, it is allowed to insert cardboard into them to make them more rigid. Sew the wings on the upper part to the body.

Connect the two parts of the beard and beak.

Fasten them in place on the toy.

The tail of this rooster is formed by simple strips of fabric that are sewn on one side. So that it is not difficult to turn out the parts, they should be sewn immediately on the front side.

Put them on the wire going from the body. Sew them on. There are paws left. It is recommended to simply cover them with a suitable soft material over a strong frame. To complete the manufacture of the toy "Cockerel" you need to design the eyes.

Toy options

For those needlewomen who want variety, other types of patterns will come in handy. For example, if you have several suitable pieces of felt, you will get a bright rooster made of felt with your own hands, keep the patterns.

note that dotted lines on the details indicate an additional line. It is necessary to give expressiveness to a felt rooster.

The toy will be unusual and cute if the pattern of a rooster made of fabric is like this.

And whoever said that a rooster made of fabric should be a simple toy, we offer you a product that is suitable for interior decoration. For this, the following pattern comes in handy.
