An owl, made by yourself, is a cute toy that not only decorates the interior, but also serves as a good symbolic gift to friends and acquaintances. Moreover, things made by oneself are valued, as a rule, more expensive. Next, it will be described how to make an owl pattern and sew such a toy from ordinary fabric or bright felt.
Owl pattern
It’s very easy to build a toy owl pattern. In the easiest option (if you make it from felt) you need to draw a rounded barrel body or just a circle, and add ears to the top. The basis of the owl pattern is ready, and everything else is already decorative elements that will give the toy individuality and make it more interesting. Separately, you need to draw and cut such details: big eyes, wings, beak. If desired, you can add paws, apron, scarf, cap, half-closed eyelids, bow to your scoop.
A pattern for a toy from another fabric needs a different one. You need two segments of a circle cut out of paper. One of them should be at an angle of thirty degrees, the other at eighty-five. This will make two triangles.
Fabric toys
A fabric toy owl (a pattern - two triangles) is made even a little easier than felt. From any fabric, you need to cut out the details for the pattern and sew them without suturing the bottom. When choosing a fabric, keep in mind that the small triangle will be in front, and the large will be the back and face of the toy. If you have matter of dark and light shades of the same color, then a small triangle is better to carve out of a darker fabric.
The resulting cone needs to be stuffed with cotton, padding polyester or other stuffed material, but first mark with a pin about a quarter of the cone from above (this part does not need to be stuffed). Now you need to prepare the bottom for the toy. Cut a circle from thick cardboard and cover it with cloth, and when the toy is tightly filled with filler, sew the bottom with hidden stitches. Now you can sew the tip of the remaining empty corner with a few stitches to the main part of the toy owl - the body.
Now you can do decorating toys. As a minimum, you need to sew big eyes to the owl - separately squirrels and irises. You can add a bow or elegant butterfly.
Felt owls
The pattern of an owl (it is very interesting to make it with your own hands) from felt is a little more complicated, although such a toy is relatively simple to sew. Felt, for example, does not require mandatory processing of slices, as it does not crumble. It is enough to just cut out all the details from the material of the corresponding color and sew to the base. Small parts can simply be glued.
