DIY toy pillows original patterns. Features of sewing original pillow toys using patterns

Today we will sew a cute Fox pillow-toy. The master class is quite detailed, so there will be few words. Enjoy your sewing!

Advice. If you don't have sewing machine, try sewing a toy pillow by hand with a back stitch. To do this, you better lightly mark the seam with a 1 cm allowance to get it neat. And the markings can be made with a vanishing marker, which you will find in almost every needlework and sewing store.

Materials and tools: cotton fabric 30x35cm - 2 pcs. - orange and back (I took gray), cream velor 20x40 cm, glue non-woven fabric, small pieces of felt, colors: black, light pink, white and blue. For the bow, I used a lace ribbon (you can use any other - satin, rep, whatever), synthetic filler (120-150 gr). Scissors, thread, sewing machine.

1) Cut out the template. The photo shows the A4 format. Cut out the main detail of the face in a mirror spread.

2) For strength and good shape, we glue non-woven fabric. And we also glue it to the velor.

3) Cut out the orange fabric with a 1 cm allowance.

4) We cut out the cheeks from velor also with an allowance.

5) Sew on the cheeks to the orange muzzle.

6) We apply the resulting part to the gray fabric and cut it out.

7) Sew the parts face to face, leaving a gap for turning and stuffing with filler (I left it in the head area), make cuts in a circle, without going over the seam.

8) We turn it out.

9) We fill with filler.

10) Sew up the hole through which the pillow was stuffed with a blind seam.

11) Sew on felt details: eyes, nose, cheeks, pre-attached with pins. Sew on a bow.

Our Fox is ready! Be healthy 🙂

To update the interior of the children's room and make the baby's bed more comfortable, it is enough to decorate it with a couple of three decorative pillows. We offer creative mothers to sew them with their own hands, because this is done quickly, simply and on a budget. The main thing here is to come up with interesting design and find the right materials.

In this article, we have collected 30 inspiring photo examples of baby pillows for beginners and experienced craftswomen, and also prepared 3 step-by-step master classes DIY sewing:

  1. Toy pillows in the form of a cloud.
  2. Pillows-letters.
  3. Patchwork style pillows.
  • Combine different pillows with each other for a more fun interior. The composition can be united by the shape, color or print of the products. When choosing fabrics, it is easiest to focus on the colors and patterns of the wallpaper, as well as the rest of the textiles in the children's room. For example, pillows can overlap with curtains, sofa upholstery and, of course, a blanket.
  • When coming up with the style and decor of the future product, take into account the style of the interior. If, say, for modern interior you can sew bright toy pillows, then products of calm colors and traditional styles in the form of rollers and pillows with ruffles or tassels are more suitable for more, as in the photo below.





  • For sewing baby pillows, it is advisable to use natural and dense fabrics (linen, cotton), which are much easier to wash, say, felt, and look much more beautiful than synthetics like fleece.
  • Before sewing, the fabric should be washed and ironed, then you will sew already taking into account the shrinkage of the material.
  • It is clear that baby pillows should be washed often, but how to wash decorative pillows that do not have pillowcases and must always keep their shape? We recommend using:
  1. Synthepukh (not to be confused with synthetic winterizer);
  2. Holofiber.

These materials are hypoallergenic, keep their shape well after washing, and they can be washed in washing machine at low temperatures even with spinning. Unfortunately, synthetic winterizer, natural fluff, buckwheat, batting, foam rubber and other fillers do not have such properties.

  • If you want to make a decorative and sleeping pillow at the same time, for example, a bolster or a side for a crib, then it is recommended to sew not just a pillow, but a pillowcase with a pillowcase. After all, removable pillowcases are much easier to wash, besides, by sewing one pillowcase and a pair of matching pillowcases, you can update the interior according to your mood.

Master class number 1: Pillow-cloud from a sweater

As you know, the world of children's interiors has its own trends and such pillows in the form of clouds are just at the peak of their popularity. They are good because they are easy to sew, look cute and are suitable for decorating a room for both a boy and a girl. In this master class, we will tell you how to sew a soft cloud with your own hands from any sweater in a pleasant color.

Materials:

  1. Sweater (better made of polyester than acrylic. By the way, instead of a sweater, you can take an old cotton sweatshirt, T-shirt, etc.);
  2. Synthepukh;
  3. Sewing accessories;
  4. Sewing machine (if any);
  5. Paper for making patterns.

Step 1. Draw on paper a pattern in the form of a cloud or any other shape that you like.

Step 2. Turn the sweater inside out (!) And attach the resulting template (including the back layer of fabric) to it using pins as shown in the photo. Then we outline the contour of the cloud and start cutting out the blanks with an indent of about 0.7 mm (for allowances).

Step. 3. Now we begin to grind two parts of the pillow along the previously drawn contour, but be sure to leave about 10 cm not sewn.

Step 4. In the places where the cloud is rounded and in the corners, we make cuts - this will make the shape of the pillow more accurate and correct.

Step 5. Unscrew the pillow and stuff it tightly with filler using, for example, a Chinese stick. Finally, cover the hole with a blind stitch.

Woo-ala! The baby pillow is ready!

Based on this master class, you can sew the pillows of the most different forms and colors. For example, a cloud can have arms and legs, beady eyes and ruddy felt cheeks.





Instead of a cloud, you can sew a star, a raindrop, a moon, a heart or a candy. For examples of such pillows, see the following selection of photos.





Master class number 2: Pillow letter

And now we propose to sew another simple but original letter pillow, which will help to personalize a nursery or a bed, if, for example, there are more children.

Materials:

  1. Textile;
  2. Synthepukh;
  3. Sewing accessories;
  4. Sewing machine.

By combining 3 types of fabric, you can use up leftovers and make your pillow design more fun.

Step 1. Select a letter, draw it (or print it in A4 format) and cut it out along the contour.

Step 2. Now we need to cut out two parts of the pillow - front and back.

  • To cut the front of the pillow you need to: put our template face up on the fabric that is face up, circle it and then cut out the blank.
  • To cut the back side of the letter you need to: do everything the same way, but first turn the template "wrong side" up, that is, according to the principle of mirror reflection.

Step 3. Now you need to prepare the side of the pillow.

  • Its length should be equal to the perimeter of the letter + 2 cm for allowances. You determine the width of the sidewall yourself, for example, it can be 4 cm, then, taking into account the 2 cm allowance for the seams, the width of the workpiece will be 6 cm.

But since you will most likely not be able to cut a whole strip of fabric, you will need to cut several strips of the same width and stitch them, so that in the end you get one tape of the desired length.

Step 4. Sew the sidewall to the first letter. To do this, we fold them facing each other and begin to grind along the entire perimeter of the workpiece.

  • For convenience, the side strip can be attached with pins.

We repeat the same procedure with the second half of the pillow, but leave a small section unfinished.

Original and cheerful pillows are a fashionable and stylish interior detail. Textile or made of fur, these toy pillows will appeal to both adults and children. Bunnies, cats, dogs - what kind of animals are not created by the skillful hands of craftswomen! Today we will figure out how to sew a do-it-yourself owl pillow using a simple pattern.

In our master class, the owl has a blue shirt-front. If you are going to sew a pillow for a girl's crib, then you can make an owl in pink tones.

For needlework you need:

  • cotton fabric in two colors;
  • pieces of felt for the eye and beak;
  • black beads or buttons for the pupils;
  • decoration tape;
  • lace;
  • filler;
  • needles, pins, scissors, threads, sewing machine.

Description

We print a full size pillow pattern.

We cut out all the details of the toy from the fabric.

For the bow, we cut out a rectangular piece 8x16 cm and a square with a side of 45 mm.

We attach lace and beak, making a zigzag seam along the contour. The lace should lie in the center of the calf, between the wings.

We attach the wings and eyes with the same seam. Sew on pupils - beads by hand.

We fold the two parts with the front sides inward, pin them off, sew along the contour. At the same time, do not forget to leave the area for turning and stuffing.

We make notches on the convex areas so that the shirt-front with the wings does not bulge after being turned inside out.

We turn out the pillow, iron it. Then the main part, that is, the shirt front, is filled with filler.

Sew up the hole with blind stitches.

Now let's start decorating the owl. We fold a strip from a square blank for a bow (see photo) and iron it. We sew the rectangular blank with an allowance of 1 cm.

We turn out the bow, collect it in the center. We cover the place of assemblies with a strip.

Sew the decoration on the ear of the pillow toy.

We make a bow from a narrow ribbon and sew it on. Optionally, you can also decorate the pillow with buttons.

If she decorates a room or upholstered furniture, - then be sure to combine with general tones interior. If this is just a funny and bright children's toy, then it can have the most unexpected embodiment.

Quite often, the funniest and cutest DIY pillow toy ideas come up with ordinary old scraps of fabric.

They can be left over from old sewing articles, cuts, worn out but bright things. It is them that can be cheaply and cheerfully turned into a new funny thing.

As for the filler, here it is necessary to foresee in advance the functionality and direct purpose of the finished product.

Using pillow fillers

In addition to using standard fillers (feathers, down, foam, etc.), you also need to know certain rules and the secrets of filling a toy pillow with your own hands.

The main requirements and criteria for the work performed look something like this:

  • First of all, the material used for stuffing the product must have hypoallergenic properties. This will avoid unnecessary problems and will not expose the health of the household;

  • An ideal filler should not lose its original shape and volume even after washing or dry cleaning;
  • The interior should be easy to clean a large number of once.

These criteria can be met by polyester materials of different processing - synthetic winterizer, foam rubber or synthetic fluff.

However, products with such a "filling" will not last long, in particular, if they play the role of a child's toy. Over time, the cotton wool begins to roll down and stray into one certain corner. The product with it will lose its shape, and become dense and unpleasant to the touch.

Slightly less often, instead of stuffing, old fabric rags or fur are used, however, they also do not tend to keep the shape of the pillow for a very long time with frequent use. An alternative can be silicone balls, which have different size and diameter. They contribute to the development of motor skills in children and quite easily give the product the desired shape.
