Business on sewing collectible dolls from textiles! Pattern of a life-size textile doll. Making a textile doll: master class Handmade dolls from textiles
Each master has his own techniques, patterns and his own peculiarities of sewing an interior doll. IN this master class we will try to describe in great detail how this is usually done. The material is suitable even for beginners with no experience. So let's get started.
MK interior doll from A to Z
What we need:
Sewing machine.
Knitwear for the body, interlining, cotton, jersey for clothes.
Shoes for a doll, a hat for a doll, hair tresses.
Threads are white and beige, needles.
Filler - synthetic winterizer and synthetic winterizer. You can only sintepon, if you do not find sintepuh.
Large (long) needle for sewing on arms and legs.
Glue is transparent.
Invisible needles or safety pins.
Scissors.
So, the first and most important thing is the pattern. Print on A4 and cut out.
For sewing the torso, you will need knitwear. You can purchase special doll knitwear, which almost does not stretch. It is most often found under the name "White Angel". You can get plain knitwear from a fabric store. In order for it not to stretch too much, glue it with interlining. We glue the fabric from the inside, except for the place where the head will be. We fold and cut off facing each other, outline the pattern, sew. Details are not completely stitched together. There are places for eversion and a place where the ball for the head is inserted.
We cut out the body parts with zigzag scissors. If you don’t have them, then we cut them out with ordinary ones and be sure to make small notches at the folds, for example, on the neck. We just take this cut edge and carefully, not reaching the seam of a couple of millimeters, we cut it.
After we have flashed all the details, we need to modify the legs. We take the leg, fold it around the foot, seam to seam and draw a rounded line.
We sew along this line. Cut out. Here's what we should get.
We turn out the details with a wooden stick.
Let's get to the head. We will need foam ball 8 cm in diameter. We cut out a circle from the padding polyester, such that it completely covers the ball, if it is wrapped.
We wrap the ball and put it in the head through the space that is not sewn on top.
If you do not want to make a nose for your doll, then you can skip the next step. For the spout, we need a safety pin with a bead at the end, a piece of padding polyester, thread and glue. So, let's take a pin. Apply glue to the tip of the plastic bead. Wrap with a strip of synthetic winterizer. Then we fold this roll on a bead in half. We tie a thread around the base of this ball.
Necessary strip of synthetic winterizer.
A roll wrapped around an invisibility.
We folded this roll in half and wrapped it at the base with a thread.
We outline on the face with an invisibility where we will have a nose.
Gently move the fabric aside and at the place where the needle enters the ball, insert our nose, and remove the invisibility.
Sew up the top of the head.
Now the most responsible and difficult moment is the neck. For the neck you will need a wooden stick. Cut off Chinese chopsticks and sharpen the end. You can use wooden skewers, but they are more brittle. You will also need a strip of synthetic winterizer and glue.
We cut a strip of synthetic winterizer in a width equal to the length of the stick before sharpening, and the length is such that when rolled up, the neck coverage is approximately. Lubricate the stick with glue and, starting from the end, roll up the padding polyester with a roll around the stick - like a carpet.
Carefully insert this roller into the body through the lower unsewn hole and prick the ball in the head on the tip of the stick. For a beginner, it can be difficult to do right away beautiful neck. With experience it gets better and better.
We stuff the torso with sintepuh. Gently, in small pieces. We help ourselves with a wooden stick. If you do not have synthetic down, then you can use a synthetic winterizer, tearing and fluffing it into small pieces. We stuff tightly.
Stuff the neck first with a stick. We try to align everything so that there are no bumps.
After the neck turned out to be even and neat, you can already stuff the body without a stick, with your hands. Very important point! The stuffing should be very dense, tight. This is necessary in order for our doll to stand later. This applies to the torso, and arms, and legs. Don't rush, use small pieces. Large pieces give the so-called cellulite - not a smooth surface of the doll.
We sew the bottom.
We fill the arms and legs in the same way. There is no way to do without a wand. Tip: put your feet in boots first, and then stuff them. You can do this again with a stick. We put it in the leg and put it in the boot. And then we stuff. This will help the foot not deform during stuffing and take the shape of the shoe. Sew up the openings of the arms and legs.
Let's get to the clothes. Cut out pantaloons. We take fabric. Lay facing each other. We draw our pattern on the fabric. Sew top and bottom. And then sew the top side seams.
We unfold and sew the bottom seams so that we get panties.
We twist and put on the legs through the top.
Insert the body between the legs. We fix with safety pins, and better, if any, with long needles. And we sew by button fastening the legs to the body.
That is, you insert the needle into one leg and stitch it through the torso to the other leg. At the same time, sew on each side through the buttons.
We put on pants. We collect them from behind and sew them to the calf. If they turned out to be too wide on the leg, then they can be picked up on a thread and sewn to the legs.
We sew a dress. It will consist separately of the top, skirt and sleeves. We sew the upper part. To do this, we need to measure the girth of the torso in the waist area and the height of this upper part.
The girth turned out to be 21 cm, and the height is 7.5 cm. For the allowance, add 0.5 cm in width and 2 cm in height.
So, we need to cut out a rectangle 21.5x9.5 cm. And hem it on a typewriter on both sides in width.
Then we make grooves on both sides. To do this, we apply our cut to the body, wrap it around and outline for ourselves the fold of the fabric. You can first draw a line and sweep it by hand. Sew one side. We do not sew to the end, since along the bottom we have the length that we need. And it doesn't need to be reduced.
We apply again to the body and in the same way outline the excess on the second side, which must be removed into the tuck. We are sewing. We apply to the body, fasten with pins and carefully sew the two halves at the back. The top part looks like this:
We sew a skirt. Everything is simple here. From the waist, measure the length of the skirt you need. Please note that if the skirt is fluffy, then it will look shorter. We cut out a rectangle equal in width to your skirt length + 2 cm for allowances, and as long as you want. The more, the more magnificent. For this doll, I made a length of 45 cm. If one piece of fabric is missing, then two can be sewn. So, cut out, hemmed the edges, and then sewed it into one circle. Gathered with a thread along the length and tightened on the belt. Then they sewed it straight to the calf.
This is a petticoat. Skirt top, pleats. The technology is the same. Sewn on by hand.
Down you can put on a tulle skirt for pomp. On the belt in order to hide the seam, you can glue or sew on braid or lace.
Knitted jacket, but you can use both cotton and jeans. In this example, jersey and cotton as lining fabric. We cut the fabric facing each other. We draw a pattern. We do not stretch to the end. We turn it through the hole and sew it by hand.
We attach our jacket to the doll and fix it with pins. Sew it in the center. Decorate with a button or something else. You can not sew, then it will not be buttoned on the doll.
On a small rectangular piece of knitwear, we sew the bottom. We chip off the face and draw the sleeves. We attach the handles to the fabric and outline where the sleeve should go.
Sew, twist and put on hands.
We sew the arms in the same way as the legs, using a button mount.
The last step is hair. Hair can be made from artificial wefts or from natural sheep curls. You can also use yarn or wool for felting. How to make hair from tresses?
We need wefts, transparent glue, or a needle and thread, safety pins, a comb.
There are two options. The first is to glue the wefts with glue, the second is to sew with threads. For beginners, the second option is easier. It is easier. And here's how to glue the wefts.
Draw a line around the head with a simple pencil. Squeeze out a small layer of glue along this line.
We apply the base of the wefts to this layer and fix it with pins. The pins are only needed for a few seconds for the glue to set. When we glue the second row, then we already pull out the pins from the first.
In the same way, the third row, etc. Until the tress is over.
You can sew the wefts with threads to the head in the same way in a spiral. It's a little longer, but your hands will be clean from glue :) Or buy a wig, it is put on the head and easily sewn along the edge.
Draw eyes acrylic paint and blush cheeks with ordinary blush or pastel.
We put on a hat, decorate it to your taste (a bear, or a handbag, or something else), and voila! The doll is ready :)

Sometimes you really want to create something unusual, sincere, beautiful, for example, to sew a lovely doll. But one little thing stops ... For work, you need a textile life size.
And this article will just help needlewomen solve this problem. From here, the life-size textile of the manufacturing technique that most of all impresses him will migrate to the master's piggy bank. And then let your imagination help you create something that will surprise and conquer everyone around.
Such different hand-sewn dolls!
The child learns the world through the game. And that is why textile dolls appeared on earth. They served as toys for children from poor families and were created using the most primitive technology.
But gradually, manufacturing as a separate type of creativity occupied its niche in needlework. It can even be called one of the trends in art. Today there are dolls not only for games, but also for decorating the interior. Often they are also used as a heating pad for a teapot.
Arms and legs are sewn to the body in the right places. Some put shovchik in their knees. Then the tilde will be able to bend its legs. Just don't stuff too much in this case.
The face of the tilde is not very developed. Usually the master is limited to small eyes, sewing on buttons or beads, or embroidering a small “dot”. But more attention should be paid to hair - this is an important part of the appearance of a real tilde.
waldorf doll
Most often, the tilde is an interior decoration. But the Waldof doll is quite suitable as a children's toy. And all because the face of these cute babies is worked out with greater accuracy than it is done with tildes.
A distinctive feature of these dolls is their protruding nose. Making it is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance. It is enough to first make a blank for the head - make a ball out of the fabric and fill it tightly with filler. Then a bead or a smaller ball is attached to the template - it will imitate a spout. A thin layer of padding polyester is laid on top of the resulting workpiece and the main fabric is stretched. Now it is clearly visible that the nose rises above the cheeks.
The face itself is either carefully drawn with paints or embroidered with floss threads.
Sometimes craftsmen pay special attention to the toes and handles of pupae. This is true for those toys that depict babies. It will help the master so that a textile doll has such feet, a master class.
pumpkin head patterns
And these dolls have their own technique for making the most important part - the head. It is cut out of four to six identical parts resembling a flower petal. Here is the head of which is made of 6 parts.
Hands and feet are sewn in the same way as for dolls made using other techniques. But the problem with keeping a fairly large head of a toy on a thin neck may arise before the master. Experts advise using wooden skewers to solve it. First, the body of the doll is pierced with a skewer, bringing the sharp end 4-5 cm above the cut on the neck. Then the pumpkin head, already ready, stuffed with filler, is pricked on the point. For insurance, you can use a couple or even three skewers. It is best to break off the lower end and take it out at the level of the pupa's waist.
Each master must understand that he has every right to make his own changes to the appearance of the product. For it is only through the manifestation creative imagination authors, new technologies for the manufacture of textile dolls appear in the world and this type of creativity develops.
