How to sew a doll from nylon tights (step by step photo)
Head
We start the product from the most difficult - from the head.
For her, you will need a cut-off piece of flesh-colored tights, a scrap of synthetic winterizer from their old jacket or pillow (although you can buy a new one in the store - it's very inexpensive) and two darn needles with flesh-colored threads.
A sintepon lump is placed in a nylon bag, another smaller ball is inserted in the front - for the nose. First, the nose is formed using a needle with a thread. Then you need to make a hollow for one nostril. The second nostril is also made out.
Loops the nose from the bottom. Enlarge one nostril, then the second. Now, after the design of the nose, you need to increase the cheeks through the lower incision in the pouch - near the neck.
Having thrust the lozenges of the filler on both sides of the nose, you should also insert a small sausage into the lip area. We turn on the second needle and form the corners of the lips and hollows for the eyes - the orbit. Between the corners of the lips we stretch a loop - a smile.
During operation, do not cut the threads - all parts must be performed “on a single breath.” In the course of work, the filler must be straightened, laying more evenly or collecting it in the right places. The lower sponge is also formed using a loop.
As the lips are embroidered, the needle is removed into the eye sockets, so that they begin to resemble “boats”, and not like dots, as it was at the very beginning. The needle should be brought out in the middle of the upper lip to make the lips bow.
By tightening the eye sockets, the corners of the lips, the master achieves a charming smile of his future creation. On the other hand, they do the same.
You can achieve a smile in which the mouth slightly opens. Now you need to slightly extend the bridge of the nose.
Eyes for dolls can be bought at a specialized craft store or replaced with painted buttons. You can glue nylon rollers around the eyeball that will imitate the eyelids.
Hair
One wig will be enough for two dolls, if it is spread on separate strips of which it consists. The strip is twisted with a "snail" and fixed with a thread. Then this “shell” is sewn onto the crown. The remaining stripes, one after the other, are fixed around the cochlea by sewing with a needle. The hairstyle can be decorated with bows and hairpins for little fashionistas.
Torso
First you need to make a frame for the body, which will hold the whole body. If the chrysalis is planned half a meter, then the wire will require thirty meters. Having folded it in the necessary way, the "skeleton" needs to be fastened in some places with tape or tape.
Palms mk
1. For palms, you also need to make a frame that is wrapped with a synthetic winterizer. Small square pieces cut from tights will serve as skin for the hands.
2. A nylon stocking is pulled on each brush and tied with a knot on the “wrists”.
3. In a known manner, fingers and nails are formed.
Body
The hands are screwed to the skeleton frame, the head also. Then the body is formed by wrapping the wire with a synthetic winterizer. The rest of the body is pulled by Kapron, the armpits are formed with the help of threads and needles, and the joints of the palms and hands are hidden.
Dress
Every woman knows how to sew a dress for a doll, so at this stage you can give free rein to imagination.
How to sew a tilde doll
There are a lot of variants of tilde dolls, and all of them amaze with their different cute images - of which there are no beauties among them! These delightful products are not just toys. For many years now Tilda dolls adorn the homes of millions of people around the world, and this is not surprising, because their fans perceive these little fairies and angels as a talisman and amulet.
To sew any doll you will need a pattern. Also prepare the necessary materials and tools.
For work, the necessary materials and tools should be prepared:
- First of all, as for creating any such doll, you will need a pattern (you can simply print it from a computer);
- natural flesh or beige fabric for sewing the body of the doll;
- filler (holofiber, synthetic winterizer, cotton wool);
- a knitting needle or wooden stick (to help yourself when stuffing);
- fabrics for attire;
- ribbons, lace, buttons and other decorations;
- acrylic paints or pencil and blush;
- material for creating hair (threads, yarn, tresses - optional).
So, let's start with a tilda-making workshop in a cup.
- Choose a pattern, depending on which doll you want to sew - small or large. Print it and transfer to flesh-colored fabric (the fabric should be folded in half with the front side inward).
- Then you need to lay an estimated seam so that it runs along the lower part of the tilde's body.
- Take the filler and stuff the doll. When distributing the packing completely evenly, sew the product. Handles must be sewn to the body almost near the neck itself.
- For a dress, take two pieces of rectangular-shaped fabric and fold them together (inside out). Transfer the dress pattern to the fabric, sew on the sides. Then you need to iron the allowance at the top of the clothes and small corners on the sides. Turn out the dress, also go over it with an iron and put it on the doll. Sew it first with straight seams (along the edges of the hem and neck), tightening the thread well. Also with a collar. Then sew it completely.
- It is better to make hairs for this doll out of bookled yarn, and paint your face with acrylic paints and blush. Attach a small rosette to the hair and sew the tilde handle to your mouth.
- Now you need a beautiful cup. Put glue on its bottom and put the doll there. To hang it, attach a small eyelet.
In order for your angels to get legs that can be bent, first fill them to half, then do the line across and only then continue stuffing to the end.It is better to fill all the details, helping yourself with a wooden stick or knitting needle. Supplement the image of your tildeochki with different elements, giving it individuality and uniqueness: give a heart, a bouquet of flowers, a stylish handbag, basket or book to the handles.
