Master class “Cat”

1. First, you need to cut off two fingers from the glove: the little finger and the middle one. In order for the cat to be symmetrical and neat, you need to cut off the little finger not at random, but along an oblique line. We sew up the holes that were formed after cutting off the fingers.
2. Now a small cut should be made on the opposite side of the glove. It should be at the same level as your thumb. Then we take the cut off little finger and sew it to the cut we just made. Thus, we get two hands. Remember that you need to sew on the little finger from the wrong side.
3. The middle cut off finger of the glove will act as the tail of the toy. It needs to be sewn on the back in the center and also on the wrong side. This is necessary so that threads and seams are not visible.
4. The next step is stuffing the product. For stuffing, you can use either cotton wool or padding polyester. If you have neither one nor the other, then you can take cereals, for example, rice. At the end of this procedure, sew up the glove.
5. The top of the glove will act as the head for our toy. Therefore, it is necessary to slightly tighten the neck with threads. Then we select the ears, after which we sew on the eyes and nose.
6. If you wish, you can put a scarf on the toy’s neck, tie a bow, or decorate the toy with beads, sequins or rhinestones.

An Indian doll made from a glove is a craft for adult children aged 8-9 years. After all, in order to make such a toy, you need to confidently wield a needle. And for kids, you can sew these funny little people yourself from an old glove. Of course, it won't necessarily be an Indian. You can sew any toy doll or fairy-tale hero. After all, the most interesting thing is to dress the doll, come up with an outfit, and along with the outfit a character and a story—“fate.” And if your baby cannot help you sew a craft from a glove, then he will definitely help you dream up a fairy tale!

How to make a glove doll.

To make this glove craft you will need:

• The glove is better in beige color
• Felt or cardboard for eyes and mouth
• Sintepon
• Braid
• Fabric for clothing, we used felt
• Scissors, thread, needle

1. We had a small children's single-layer glove with a short wrist. Therefore, in order to lengthen it, we ripped open the hem.

2. Turn the glove inside out. The little finger and thumb are the hands of the future doll, the index and ring fingers are the legs. We cut off the middle finger, cut off the tip of the little finger and cut the glove higher, thereby comparing it with the thumb.

3. We sew all cuts “over the edge”.

4. Turn the glove right side out and stuff it with padding polyester. First the doll's arms and legs, then the body. You can't stuff it very tightly.

We stuff the padding polyester up to the neck and tie the glove with thread.

Then we stuff the head (here you can stuff it more tightly with padding polyester) and tie it again with thread.

We bend the tail of the glove back and sew it to the head.

5. We do the doll's hair. We wind woolen threads (our threads are black, since we are making an Indian) around the book, separately a small bun for the bangs, and separately for the rest of the hair.

Sew a bunch of threads for bangs onto the doll’s forehead. We cut a bunch of threads with long hair on one side.

Next, take small tufts of long hair and sew them from top to bottom in the center.

We do the hairstyle - we trim the hair with scissors.

For an Indian, you don’t have to have bangs, but just sew on long hair.

6. For the doll’s nose, take a cut piece of a glove (from the little finger) and use a needle and thread to form a round lump.

We sew the lump to the doll's face.

7. Cut out the eyes and mouth from cardboard or felt and glue them onto the doll’s face.

1. HOW TO MAKE AN ORIGINAL TOY FROM AN OLD GLOVE. BASIC PRINCIPLES

According to child psychologists, children's games with bright soft toys perfectly develop fine motor skills of the fingers, tactile sensations and imagination of a small child. It is known that many children from 1 to 3 years old, with whom their parents often played various finger role-playing games using knitted or sewn soft toys, began to speak and read earlier than their peers.

Such educational games simulate interesting situations in which the toy characters of the scenes find themselves and force the child to fantasize. Be sure to communicate with your child while playing, imitate communication on behalf of the toy participants in the scenes, try to change intonation, speak in different voices, and give each character a character.

You don't have to buy all these heroes at the toy store. If you know how to knit, you can knit soft toys with your own hands using a hook or knitting needles. If you don't know how to knit, it doesn't matter! You can make wonderful toys from old socks or sew them from unwanted gloves. It is enough to know how to use a needle and thread to sew together the parts of the product and sew up the holes through which the glove or sock is stuffed with padding polyester (padding polyester).

In this material we will tell you how to easily and quickly make an original soft toy out of any unnecessary glove. If your child is already 5-6 years old, be sure to involve him in creative work - the baby will help you fill the glove with filler.

So, after a good rummage in the linen closet, we find old knitted or sewn gloves. They will serve as a shell for our future teddy bear. You can sew individual parts from cut gloves in different ways. The photo shows different options for joining parts of a soft toy using a needle and thread:

What tools and materials will we need for the job:

√ 2 soft gloves,

√ holofiber as a filler,

√ decorative elements for decoration and detailing - ribbons, lace,

√ threads to match the gloves and multi-colored ones to decorate the bear’s face,

√ scissors,

√ wire and beads (or pebbles).

Stages of work:

We cut the gloves so that the index and thumb make the arms and legs of the teddy bear, and the little fingers make the upper area of ​​the head and ears. The rest of the head, neck and body of the stuffed toy will be made from the middle part of the glove;

Sewing the cut gloves to form the body so that the pattern matches. We make the head and ears of the toy by sewing the little fingers of the gloves;

We evenly fill the shell with holofiber, add beads (you can use a Kinder Surprise in the shell, then you get a rattle. We install wire in the area of ​​the paws so that the bear can change poses and the position of its limbs;

We sew the parts together and lightly tighten them with thread along the neck line;

All that remains is to design the face. Sew on the hairs (you can fluff brown yarn). We make a collar from lace and sew on a ribbon. We embroider eyes and mouth. Sew all the details for decoration very tightly if the toy is intended for a small child!

Recently, they have become quite fashionable. And why all? They can be sewn very quickly and easily, and they do not require any special sewing skills, except the most basic ones. No less interesting is sewing toys from gloves and mittens. They are also very easy to make, but the toys come out to be of a slightly different type. So, let's figure out how to make a toy from a glove.

How to sew a toy from a glove?

In this master class we will look at how to sew funny monsters from gloves. They are super easy to sew and a lot of fun to play with. First, before we begin describing the sewing process, let's look at what materials we will need for this task.

• gloves;
• batting;
• sewing machine;
• needle and thread;
• snaps or buttons for the eyes, as well as felt to create the monster's mouth.

Having decided on the materials, we proceed directly to the process of creating our charming monsters from gloves.

Step 1: Turn the glove inside out. Hide her thumb inside the glove. Sew the opening of the glove inward, leaving only a small hole so that you can then stuff the toy glove with batting. It is convenient to perform this action using a sewing machine, but you can also sew the hole by hand if you do not like machines. Then turn the glove right side out.

Step 2: Turn the cuff inside out. Stuff the glove with batting, making sure all four fingers are well padded. Then sew up the small hole through which you stuffed the glove. And the most interesting thing remains - creating a face for the monster. Cut out facial features from felt for the monster - mouth and eyes. But keep in mind that you can also use buttons as eyes for the monster, which look very good on its face. After finishing work on the monster’s face, it can already be given to the child for active and fun use.

DIY glove toys are a very fun and interesting activity for the whole family, because everyone can participate in the process of creating and then playing with these funny creatures.
