Lovely angels are one of the most popular Christmas tree decorations. They can be made of paper , felt , foil, wood and even metal. And we in our master class suggest to sew an angel with your own hands from a fabric with the help of unpretentious patterns. Photobook is so simple that you can offer your children to take part in creating a small masterpiece. We are sure that the angel who will be made by children will become their favorite toy. So, let's get to work!
We will need:
- white fabric;
- sintepon;
- lace or linen fabric with perforations;
- hair dolls (optional);
- glue;
- wire;
- a needle, a thread.
- Making an angel from a fabric begins with his head. Cut out a white circle from the cloth, sweep it around the circumference, fill it with sintepon or cotton wool and pull the thread. You will have a ball. Now glue to the head hair from a small pupa, which the child is no longer playing. If you do not have one, use a suitable color yarn, sewing it to the head. After that, draw the little angel's face with a felt-tip pen.
- Cut out one large rectangle from the lace and two small ones. The big one will serve both the calf and the dress, and the other two, respectively, with arms and sleeves. Fold each part in half, and then sew and turn out on the front side. Let's get on with our hands. Take both parts and sew them around the circumference, not sewing the hole itself between them. Pass a thin wire through the sleeves.
- It's time to start assembling the crafts of the angel from the fabric. First, put your head in the neck of the dress and tighten it tightly with threads. If you are planning to hang an angel, stretch the needle through the dress and head to pull the thread in the occipital part. Measure the required length of the suspension and again pull the needle through the head. After that, attach the angel of the handle, wrapping it around the neck. Both ends of the wire that protrude from the sleeves, twist, remove excess wire. The hand-made looks like an angel squeezes his hands. To hide the wire, sew both sleeves or use glue.
- Now about how to make an angel out of a fabric of halos. You can use the remnants of wire, decorating them with a golden "rain". If you have at hand a dozen identical beads, people on their wire. Give the wire a circle shape and secure it over the angel's head. If the wire is heavy, make an additional support from the back of the head.
- Our angel needs wings, for which it is better to use lace. Cut the strip, bend it in half and stitch it in the center. In a similar way, sew the second wing. When both parts are ready, fasten them to one, and then sew to the back of the angel.
- On this, in fact, the master class is completed, and you now know how to make an angel out of the fabric to decorate the house. Such lovely crafts can replace usual fur-tree toys.
To create angels, you do not need to use exclusively white materials. Tissue pupae in colorful dresses look very impressive. And what if the child categorically does not agree after the New Year holidays to part with the angels? In this case, we recommend sewing a similar for the craft. Fill it with cotton and sew a hem. Then sew the resulting "pouch" to the head (under the dress, of course). This part will serve as a support, which will make it possible to put the pupa in a horizontal position. But the string-suspension - too much. It can be cut or brought inside the craft through the head.
