Making an angel with your own hands. Various crafts, handmade New Year angels always fill the house with positive energy, just like this energy of goodness, creativity and warmth of human hands !!! We sew an angel from fabric

The simplest dIY fabric angel created from a handkerchief or a piece of burlap, and is called a primitive. More complex figures are made using the technology of soft toys from full-fledged patterns. Knowing the principles of sewing souvenir angels, you can fantasize with patterns, decorate products with beads, decorative thread and rhinestones.

Methods for making textile angels

A primitive angel is made on its own in a couple of minutes with a piece of fabric and filler material. Soft toys require more time, more painstaking work and special skills.

Primitive angels

Primitives are a budget option for a festive angel figurine. They got their name for the following reasons:

  • waste of cutting fabrics are used
  • simple manufacturing methods are used
  • the shape of the dolls turns out to be primitive, only the general appearance of the recognizable character is outlined
  • blank - a square piece of 20 x 20 cm textiles (poplin, organza, tulle, linen, burlap, matting) for the torso, 15 x 15 cm for the wings and knitting thread (best with lurex, acrylic)

  • edge decoration - 1 - 2 cm around the perimeter must be "swept" by stretching the longitudinal wefts of the textile

  • head - cotton wool or synthetic winterizer rolled into a ball is placed in the center of the square (you can wrap it with thread), textiles are folded diagonally

  • neck - it is formed with a thread below the head, while the "face" needs to be straightened, folds can be made on the sides for a clearer outline of the contours of the face

  • arms - the edge is bent inward by 2 - 3 cm, folded with an envelope, tied with a thread, as in the lower figure, the second brush is formed in the same way

  • wings - the small square is folded diagonally, then into an "accordion", which is tied with a thread to the angel's back with the long part of the accordion, as in the photo

The last operation is the most difficult; when attaching the wings to the body of the toy, it is necessary to assemble it into a bundle. Three turns obliquely enough for normal fixation, the thread passes through the left shoulder under the right hand, then over the right shoulder and below the left hand.

Attention: A cross is obtained on the chest, a knot is tied on the back of the doll in the form of a loop for hanging an angel.

For the category of craftsmen who prefer sewing to the knitting technique, angels made of matting or burlap with soft filling are more suitable. In this primitive, the "recognizability" of the character's appearance is achieved due to the shape of the blanks:

  • pear-shaped body
  • round head
  • graceful small wings

This option can be attributed to soft pillows, toys, pendants and primitives at the same time. If necessary, angels are hung on a Christmas tree, in a car salon, on windows and in any other convenient place.

Stuffed Toys

Depending on your drawing skills, patterns for soft toys in the shape of cute angels can be made in several ways. The main task of the master is how to make the figures recognizable, it is solved by the following methods:

  • required attributes - the figurine may be completely shapeless, but if it has wings, a star and a halo, it will be possible to recognize an angel in it
  • motion simulation - giving the doll's body the shape of an arc and sharpening the edges of the workpiece, you can ensure the swiftness and airiness of the craft, causing associations with an angel on a subconscious level
  • similarity of outlines - legs, torso, wings and arms are created from individual patterns, the figure is complemented by a star or halo, special symbols embroidered on the torso

By default, angels have miniature sizes for easy placement on key chains, inside car salons, on branches of New Year trees. Therefore, simple outlines of patterns are preferable for small stitches of a thread seam.

Pendants

The easiest way is to sew dolls with "humanized" contours, in which it is easy to identify the angel by the wings on the back.

Master Class for making a primitive pendant looks like this:

  • cut - 2 parts "head", 2 parts "torso-dress", 2 parts "wings"
  • suspension - a fabric loop is sewn to one piece "head" from the inside
  • sewing - each piece "head" is sewn to the element "torso" with a transverse purl seam, then the halves are stitched to each other and turned outward, a hole should be left in the lower part of the doll to fill the figure

  • padding - made with padding polyester, foam rubber or cotton wool, the hole is sewn up with 1 - 2 stitches

12. Padding

  • hair - can be made from threads, cotton wool, other materials suitable for the texture, by gluing them in the form of a hairstyle

13. Hair, face and wings

  • face - colored with a marker, paint or pencils
  • wings - toys are attached to the back
  • bow - pinned or sewn with a thread, decorated with rhinestones, a bead on the belly of the figure

Using this technique, in a day, you can build up to two dozen toys for the Christmas tree with your own hands from the remaining textile scraps and scraps.

Flying

An alternative to the previous "fat men" are "soaring" New Year's angels made of light flannel. Their recognizable shape has become popular thanks to the author Silvia Sartorio:

  • the torso is bent in an arc at the lower back
  • arms spread apart at approximately 45 degrees
  • the doll does not have a neck, but has a stylish hairdo and beady eyes
  • wings of equal length with hands are decorated with embroidery or rhinestones

  • cut and procurement of parts - separately sewn the body with the head, legs, arms and wings
  • assembly - all elements are stuffed with soft material, sewn to each other, as in the bottom photo

15. Patterns

Following the indicated principles of making soft toys, you can modify the shape and size of patterns, apply additional elements, and experiment with materials.

From a simple pattern

Do-it-yourself smart Christmas angels are made from bright fabric using a very simple pattern:

  • torso - conical cap, the reamer of which can be made without special education
  • plug - installed in the lower part of the cap, so that the stuffing material does not fall out of it, the figure has greater stability
  • wings - sewn from 2 pieces of the same size in the shape of a heart

16. Step by step manufacturing

To assemble a funny figure with your own hands from fabric, you need to follow the steps:

  • the tip of the textile cone is wrapped with a seam outward, clings to the doll's body with a stitch of thread, these will be the lowered hands of an angel, into which you can "put" (sew from below) a bell, a horseshoe, a bead, any other decorative trifle, as in the bottom photo
  • in the place of the bend, the doll is sewn with a “head” made of a large bead or a detail sewn from textile

The templates for this doll are given below, there are no problems with patterns and sewing, even with minimal skills in working with a needle. A master class on making an original primitive angel is given in detail in the video:

Thus, there are a lot of options for making a textile angel for Christmas, SV Day, New Year and other holidays. That allows you to choose the best option, taking into account specific conditions.

Thanks for attention! Happy New Year, everyone!

The warmest family holidays are New Year and Christmas. So you want to fill the house with coziness and give your relatives something unusual. If you want to make an angel for the New Year with your own hands, master classes on making it will be very useful to you. Such a hand-made little thing will fully convey the festive mood and give a little warmth to its owner.

Crafts with kids

Why not involve kids in decorating your home? Let the little ones help you make simple angels that can be used as a Christmas tree decoration or as a gift to your beloved grandparents.

To work you will need:

  • Paper filters for coffee. You can use crepe paper or white three-layer napkins;
  • Scissors;
  • A piece of cotton wool;
  • Thin ribbon;
  • Glue (since the paper is thin, use a glue stick or glue gun);
  • Chenille wire is golden. If you don't find it, you can simply use a copper wire and refine it with a gold cord.

Prepare the paper by cutting it into circles. Depending on their diameter, the angel can be tiny or quite large. You will need three circles in total. Place a ball of cotton in the first circle. He will serve as the head of the future celestial. Wrap cotton wool in paper and secure with tape. Tie it up with a nice bow. To make the skirt more magnificent, fold the second circle, fixing the top of the head with thread. Gently glue it to the head fixation point (bottom side). The angel will immediately become more magnificent. To make the wings, it is enough to fold the circle in half and fix the middle with a thread. Glue them in place. Roll the chenille wire into a halo, as shown in the photo. Reinforce on the back of your head. If you are using regular wire, pre-glue it with a golden satin ribbon.

The napkin angel is ready! You can decorate it to your liking with sparkles or sequins. Even preschoolers can cope with its manufacture. For them, doing such work will be not only interesting, but also useful. When creating a toy, the kid will wield his hands and develop fine motor skills. And the decorating process will bring real pleasure.

For older children

Schoolchildren are also capable of creating a New Year's miracle. They can embody it from pastry napkins. These napkins are used as a stand for cakes and pastries. Quite thick paper is equipped with a beautiful openwork edge.

To create an angel you will need:

  • Confectionery napkin;
  • Paper handkerchief;
  • Scissors;
  • Glue stick;
  • Thread;
  • Satin ribbon.

Divide the prepared handkerchief into layers, you will need two of them.

Roll one of the layers into a tight ball.

Place it in the center of the second napkin.

Carefully fold the edges of the handkerchief under the ball.

Form the handles by bending the corners and pressing them slightly against the body.

Twist the edges of the handkerchief.

To create an angel dress, cut half of a pastry napkin and roll it into a cone.

Remove the top of the workpiece and glue it along the side line.

Place the body twisted from handkerchiefs into the conical piece and fix it with glue. Remove excess scarf sticking out under the skirt.

Use the openwork edge of a pastry napkin to make the wings. Cut out the details as shown in the photo.

Fasten the wings of the heavenly dweller on its back.

Form a halo from a napkin flagellum, decorate the angel's head with it.

Tie a thread around the figure's neck. It will serve as a pendant to hang the toy on the Christmas tree. The neck will become a little thinner and tidier. All that remains is to decorate the front of the dress with a thin satin ribbon.

Seashell souvenir

Junk and natural material is widely used by teachers and needlewomen to create beautiful crafts. You can create an elegant angel from ordinary scallop shells.

To make it you will need:

  • Golden lace;
  • Scissors;
  • Glue "Moment crystal";
  • Scallop shells - 1 large and 2 small;
  • Wooden bead;
  • Some yellow yarn;
  • A ring made of golden foil or wire (for a halo);
  • Satin ribbon.

First, a hole must be made in the narrow part of the large shell.

Attention! Take your time grabbing a drill or looking for a small drill. Use nail scissors.

Mark the location for the hole and carefully screw the tool to the desired point. Do not rush or press too hard, the shell may crack. Make a knot on the lace so that it does not pop out of the hole. Insert the cord as shown in the picture.

Put a bead on the string that will serve as the head of the figurine. Tie a beautiful ribbon bow under it. Fix the small shells with glue so that they form the wings of an angel. Decorate the surface of the head with yellow yarn, evenly distributing it on the curls. It remains only to crown the head with a halo, and the Christmas tree toy is ready! You can see the process of its manufacture in detail in the photo below.
