- blue, white threads;
- rhinestones;
- small beads;
- Super glue;
- thin satin ribbon.

How to sew a Snow Maiden from felt

We redraw the pattern of the Snow Maiden from felt by attaching a sheet of paper to the computer screen. We draw translucent contours with a pencil. Cut out the template and trace on the felt.




By the way, you can also make a very pretty one from felt, which will be a symbol of the coming year.

Carefully cut out the details so that there are no traces of the paste on them, which was used to circle the pattern.




We embroider snowflakes of different sizes on the dress. You can use blue or silver threads.




Apply droplets of super glue between the snowflakes with a toothpick and stick rhinestones with a special pencil. So the glue will not stain the fabric and the strasses themselves.

You can decorate the dress in different ways: embroider with beads and shiny threads, sew-on stones, sequins or patterns cut from felt in a contrasting color.




We take a pink circle - this will be the face of the future Snow Maiden. We mark with a pen the places where the eyes will be.




Sew small beads in the marked places with black thread. In place of the spout, we make a small horizontal stitch.




The mouth-smile of the felt snow maiden can be embroidered with red threads or sponges can be cut out of red material (only thin felt fabric 12 mm thick will do). Glue the lips with super glue.




We glue the bangs, also cut out of yellow or brown fabric. On the sides of the face of the Snow Maiden there will be rhinestone earrings made of felt.




Fold the dress inside out and sew the edges with small stitches. Turn out the figurine.




We sew the detail of the back side of the head to the body with a buttonhole seam. If the craft made of felt "Snow Maiden" will hang on the Christmas tree, do not forget to sew in a thin ribbon or cord.




We fill the head with fluffy padding polyester or holofiber. We push the stuffing with the tips of scissors or some kind of stick.




We sew the joint of the head and body with a buttonhole seam. We do not break the thread.




The neck of the Snow Maiden will be decorated with beads. We string small beads on the left thread, fix with a few stitches on the opposite side of the head. String beads again. The second thread should hang below the first, so more beads need to be strung. We also fix on the opposite side with a couple of stitches.




We glue the "hair" of felt with super glue. The pigtail can be decorated with a small bow and strazik.




You can cut out small handles in the form of mittens and glue them with glue. But you can leave the figure without them.




Artificial cilia can be glued to the bead eyes, and blush from dry pastels or eye shadow can be applied to the cheeks of the New Year's Snow Maiden from felt.

Santa Claus made of felt, made by hand, brings joy in the manufacturing process not only to children, but also to their parents. I would like to put all my individuality and creativity into the creation of both Christmas tree decorations and funny toys, gift bags. This article will describe the general process of self-creating Santa Claus with your own hands from felt. First, let's talk about the material itself.

Range of use, benefits and secrets of proper care of felt

Felt is a special non-woven material, which is a thin, well-combed felt. It is environmentally friendly, thanks to the raw materials from which it is made. Most often it is:

  • natural sheep wool;
  • rabbit or hare fluff.

Today, products made from natural textiles have become even more in demand, so felt is widely used in the production of clothing, hats, all-weather shoes, decor elements, including.

Each product made of high quality felt is a solid and very attractive thing. For example, shoes made from this material are able to retain heat well even at low temperatures.

This material can be easily dyed any color. This is another reason for its widespread use. A wide range of colors greatly expands the range of use.

However, the fabric also has a significant disadvantage - this is a high level of hygroscopicity. When wet or high humidity - will instantly draw water. But this is not a reason to completely abandon its use. With proper operation, you can avoid problems with felt and use all its positive aspects. For example, various products can be applied to hats or felt clothes that repel moisture. And then the product will always be dry. It can also be coated with special substances, which may include the following components:

  • high quality wood glue;
  • isinglass;
  • casein;
  • silicone sealants (a special type of impregnation intended only for felt coatings).

But, it is imperative to take into account the frequency of use of the processed thing in the daily life, additional processing with synthetic mixtures should not harm either the owner or the thing itself.

If the felt product has absorbed moisture or is heavily soiled, it is recommended to place it in a weakly concentrated soap solution. And for thorough drying, you must do the following:

  • find a clean rag and wipe the surface of the product well;
  • to get rid of water from the inside of a thing, for example, a boot, you need to fill it with plain paper, which will gradually absorb moisture;
  • you can also use newspaper or other highly absorbent materials;
  • drying is carried out at normal room temperature.

Attention

The use of heating devices is not allowed due to the high heating temperature, which can damage or destroy the material.

Santa Claus from felt with his own hands

Santa Claus made of felt is an excellent New Year's souvenir that can be hung on a Christmas tree, placed on a table or used as a keychain. Thanks to the pleasant to the touch material and its color variety, the toy can be easily attached to any surface and does not lose its brightness and saturation even under the influence of negative environmental factors.

Felt as a material for creating various decorative elements exhibits the following qualities:

  • it does not reflect light;
  • easily sewn, glued and cut without forming a fringe;
  • has a high level of strength and durability.

In order to make Santa Claus with your own hands, you must have the following basic working tools with you:

First of all, you need to pre-print paper templates, which are parts of the body of the future Santa Claus. It should be noted that there are many different models of this New Year's souvenir. They differ from each other in size, the number of additional parts, the complexity of execution.

The comfort of your sleep will provide a well-chosen one. It depends on how soft, comfortable and warm you will be. The best is natural: linen, cotton and the fashionable "King" of fabrics, of course, is natural silk.

So, after preparing the templates, the next step is to cut out all the elements. It is recommended to do this carefully, as the felt tends to "slipper" and change shape. To avoid this, you need to pin the template to the fabric with special pins and only then cut out the details.

After preparing the parts, the process of assembling the future Santa Claus begins. Details are possible.




It's time to decorate the Christmas tree. If you want her to look unusual and original, make flat or voluminous toys out of colored felt for her. Any special skills for the manufacture of such toys are not required, they are sewn quickly and look cozy, colorful and very elegant. Felt is a wonderful material, perfectly combined with paper and fabric, which allows you to make various decorations from it, for example, a cute Christmas tree toy in the form of a Santa Claus head made of felt, which will transform and enliven any Christmas tree, especially decorated in too strict design traditions. Try it and you are guaranteed a lot of pleasure, both from the process and from the result of this work.

In order to sew Santa Claus from felt, you will need:

- white felt 9 I use soft felt);
- red felt;
- beige light brown felt;
- self-adhesive eyes or 3 mm bead eyes;
- synthetic winterizer;
- ribbon - 8-10 cm;
- threads;
- glue;
- needle, scissors, marker.


Step-by-step instruction:

Do-it-yourself Santa Claus from felt, a pattern for sewing a Christmas tree toy. Pattern details can be printed on a printer, or redrawn on your own, changing the size as desired.




Cut out the details of the pattern along the contour.






Prepare felt in three colors: beige, white and red. We put the patterns on the felt and carefully outline with a marker or pen. Santa Claus face - beige felt (or light brown) - 1 detail. Hat - red felt - 2 parts. Headband on the hat - white felt - 1 piece. Mustache of Santa Claus - white felt - 1 detail. Santa Claus beard - white felt - 1 detail. The back of the toy is white felt - 1 piece.



Next, cut out the details of the future toy exactly along the lines.
Now we take the detail of the beard and face of Santa Claus and sew them together with small stitches.




Then we take the part of the back of the toy and sew the parts together with an overcast seam. You can use white threads for this or red threads for contrast.




The resulting part of the toy is filled with padding polyester. And put aside.




Let's move on to the hat. We take the detail of the cap made of red felt and the rim of the cap is white.
Sewing the pieces together.






We take the second part of the red felt hat and begin to sew the details with an overcast seam.




Having reached the top of the hat, we sew a ribbon.




Next, continue the stitches to the end. We fill the finished part with synthetic winterizer.




We return to the detail of the head of Santa Claus. Glue on the mustache and eyes. I used self-adhesive eyes, but 3-4 mm beads will also work here.




Now we take the detail of the cap and lightly put it on the grandfather's head.




We sew a hat to the head.
Cut out a small circle (nose) from red felt and glue it on the mustache.
Santa Claus is ready for the Christmas tree. Now it remains only to decorate the toy. We glue rhinestones of different colors on the hat. The toy is ready.




These are the Santa Clauses I got.

Santa Claus visits children
I brought my granddaughter on a sleigh.
Fragile figurine -
Came to us ... (Snow Maiden)


The Snow Maiden is an indispensable guest at the New Year holidays.
A sweet, charming girl becomes the main decoration of the holiday. She is smart, friendly, kind. The ingenuity and wisdom of the young granddaughter help Santa Claus find a way out of any difficult situation.
At the same time, she herself is vulnerable, vulnerable, often holiday scenarios are built on the rescue of the Snow Maiden from the captivity of dark forces. But good, as it was customary in fairy tales, certainly conquers evil. Animals, birds, natural elements strive to save the Snow Maiden.


The image of the Russian Snow Maiden is unique in itself. No other peoples of the world in New Year and Christmas mythology have a similar female image.
The Snow Maiden is slender, has a fragile camp.


Charming and musical. And to sing a song, and dance, and spin a round dance with New Year's snowflakes to her joy. Everyone's favorite and helper of his grandfather!


She is wearing white boots
And in a blue coat
Bouquet of ripe snowflakes
Brings us with you.
White-white to the waist
Luxurious braid
And warm, warm
Radiant eyes.
In transparent ice mittens
And she has a hat on.
You give us light and joy,
Children's favorite.
(Tatyana Gusarova)

Progress:

To make a character, we use a ready-made pattern.


We transfer the details of the pattern to the fabric. It can be felt, fleece, drape or other dense fabric. Cut out the number of pieces indicated on the pattern. We select the fabric of the desired color and texture.


On the detail of the silhouette of the Snow Maiden, carefully sew the detail of the face. We do this with small stitches “over the edge”.



We fix the cheeks on the face with glue. It can be PVA glue, "Moment" or other similar glue designed to work with fabric.


In the same way, with the help of glue, we first fix a vertical white strip on a fur coat.


And then the horizontal trim along the hem.


Sew on two black eye beads.


We embroider a smile with a chain stitch. We use a red floss thread.



Sew a strand of artificial hair over the front part. You can replace them with woolen or ordinary threads. The fastening seam should be tight and divide the hair into a parting.


With a seam "over the edge" we attach the sleeves.


We sew them together.


We connect the edge of the sleeve with a buttonhole stitch with a crochet.



We begin to connect the details of the silhouette with an overcast ("loop") seam. We do this in the direction from the bottom edge (hem) to the kokoshnik. We connect both sides.


On one side, we insert a pigtail under the kokoshnik. We fix it by stitching with threads.


We complete the connection of the details of the silhouette. At the same time, we insert a small bead into the nakida (through one).


We tie a ribbon-bow onto the pigtail and fasten with the help of threads.


We decorate the kokoshnik with sequins.


Add silver buttons to the vertical trim of the fur coat.
