We sew a do-it-yourself pencil case for a preschooler
The pattern will be for beginners. The pencil case consists of three layers: outer, lining, inner fabric. Cut off the rectangle. A synthetic winterizer was put between the material, stitched from three sides. They turned it on his face, sewn a zipper. For a preschooler, you need the simplest wallet pencil case for all pencils.
Often, teachers at the beginning of the year return to their parents pencil cases with Velcro, with bright applications or in an unusual way, voluminous suitcases, tubes for one reason - children are distracted from the learning material.
It doesn’t matter if he admired the bright pencil case, played with his mounts, was in a hurry to complete the teacher’s task and dropped it on the floor, or he often tried to get and remove pencils, tugging Velcro. The result will be one - undigested material.
Therefore, while the child is not used to controlling his desires, to subordinate his behavior to the rules, just sew a simple pencil case. You can even tie such a purse on a large button (if the preschooler has fine motor skills).
Doing an unusual school pencil case with our own hands: patterns
From the second grade, the child understands how to behave in school at lessons and breaks. And just in the moments of rest, students boast of their new things. Pencil cases-fish, crocodiles, dinosaurs, etc. are suitable for this period. Consider how to sew a pencil case-shark :
- draw a pattern of fish, fins;
- transfer to the outer lining fabric in duplicate;
- Sew shark fins to the external material (can be stuffed with sintepon);
- stitch all layers of the pencil case;
- sew front zipper-teeth;
- sew on eye buttons from above.
Thus, you can sew any pencil case with your own hands. The pattern of tigers, dinosaurs, bears, monsters can be the simplest. For example, you sew a green purse with ears, eyes, and you sew a mouth-zipper not from the side, but on the front of the pencil case. The face of the dinosaur turned out.
And if you own a hook, then you can knit any piece of yarn. It is better to take thick threads. Firstly, they keep their shape well. Secondly, less time will be spent on the knitting process.
Pencil case
Not every child has a handmade pencil case. Its pattern is nevertheless simple, and the product itself is a one-piece long canvas, a long pocket and an elastic band. Fold the fabric in length, put pencils on it, noting the distance between them. Cut fabric with allowance. You need to make the item in duplicate.
The same length you take the material for the inner deep pocket, where you insert the pencils. Therefore, it is better to take a dense fabric. Sew a pocket with a long part of a pencil case. Next, with soap, outline the dimensions of the pencil pockets. Sew the marked lines.
Insert the pencils into the pockets, see if they fall out, if the tip breaks. If fixation is needed, then sew on the elastic band from above (also stitching it through 3-4 pencils). Now sew the inner pencil case with the facial tissue. Sew a tail with a rivet to one edge, roll a pencil case with pencils into the case, mark the place of the second button. The product is ready.
As you can see, it’s easy to sew a pencil case with your own hands. Patterns can be found of any complexity. For beginners, it is better to start with a simple rectangular pencil case, but focus on its appearance. For example, sew a pencil case.
