Here we will consider the simplest option in the form of a hat. In fact, on its basis it is possible to sew a more complex thing, supplementing the basis with the volumetric head of the animal, paws, tail or elements of the doll.

If you want to make a heating pad very quickly, you can even take a factory towel or napkin and use not only bright colors, but also a sheathed edge to your advantage.

So, to sew a hot water bottle for a teapot with your own hands, you will need to make some measurements:

1. Take the item for which you are going to make clothes, determine its height.
2. Measure the largest width, taking into account the nozzle, if you do not make a hole under it to pour the drink without removing the heating pad.

Further work stages will be as follows:

1. Build on the sheet a pattern of the part according to its dimensions.
   
2. Cut two paper parts and connect them with pins or a stapler.
3. Put on the kettle. If everything suits you, go to the next step. Correct the template if necessary.
4. Lay out the blanks on the fabric, circle with allowance for allowances and cut out the elements sequentially from colored decorative material, from the insulation layer and the lining that will be in contact with the surface of the teapot.
   
5. Staple parts in many ways.
   
   If they are not very dense, fold them all in the desired sequence, one on top of the other, with the sides facing inward and stitch the hem of the lower edge, and then the main seam, along the contour.
   
   If the insulation layer is sufficiently dense, it is better to sew a decorative “cap” and the inside separately. You need to connect them together along the bottom edge. If necessary, sew a ribbon for the eyelet in the seam of the "cap".
6. Turn out a product.
   
7. Iron.
   

Having made such a basis, then you can decorate it in accordance with any idea.
