To make a toy bag in the shape of a dog we will need:
- Fleece or any fabric for a bag;
- Fabric for lining;
- A little fur to create an image;
- A little bit of any filler (sintepon or holofiber);
- Button for the nose;
- Two eyes;
- Glue;
- Threads, needle, sewing machine;
- Lightning snake.
1. Cut the dog pattern along the lines, as in the photo. This is done so that there are seams on all parts that need to be filled with holofiber.
2. Lay out the patterns on the main fabric, secure them with safety pins for convenience.
3. Cut along the contour, leaving a 0.5 cm seam allowance.
4. Baste the ears face to face or pin them in place. Also attach the frontal part to the dog's muzzle.
5. Machine stitch.Place thin paper so that the knitwear does not move and is easy to sew.
6. Pin the legs to the body. Place the pieces right sides to each other.
7. Sew the parts on a machine. You can use backing paper. There is no need to remove the needles. The main thing is to pin them perpendicular to the intended seam. Then the machine will sew smoothly, and they will fit between the lines.
8. Place the top parts of the dog together and stitch on both sides as shown in the photo.
9. Place the prepared bag handle inside on the stitched sides. It can be made from the same fabric as the dog.
10. Baste the edges to sew on the snake.
11. Secure the snake with pins.
12. Topstitch it.
13. Align the lower parts of the dog and stitch to each other.
14. Sweep the dog along all the contours.
15. The upper front part of the dog bag is ready. Now all we have to do is fill the legs and face with padding polyester so that it takes on the appearance of a soft toy.
16. Fill the parts with padding polyester. To prevent it from falling out during use and washing, we secure it with threads. For this, we just needed seams on these parts. You can place a small piece of fabric on top of the holes and then sew along the seams.
17. Now let's start designing the image. After all, we will have a poodle. Therefore, we cut small strips:
- for legs and tail, equal in perimeter to legs and tail;
- one piece for the head, so that it covers the place where the ears are sewn on;
- and two parts for the bottom of the ears.
18. We sew the parts for the tail and head on one side.
19. Sew the ears to the head. Glue the prepared fur parts onto the dog.
20. Now we cut out two parts for the lining.They are the same size as the pieces on the top and bottom of the bag without the head and legs.
21. From the inside we sew any seam to the snake.
22. Glue on the eyes and nose.
23. The dog toy bag is ready! It turned out very cute and my granddaughter enjoys wearing it everywhere.
