FELT CHANTERELLE

Send

A bright red fox made of felt will perfectly complement the interior of any room, and on a cold autumn evening will share with you a cup of hot tea, with which it warms its paws. Learn how to make an unforgettable felt soft toy with your own hands.
First you need to prepare the necessary elements in the work:
• Felt in two colors (red and white);
• Mouline thread (red, white, black and red);
• pins;
• needles;
• Chalk for marking the contour of the pattern;
•Scissors;
• Narrow tape;
• Pattern.

After you have prepared the necessary things, you can begin to make patterns for creating a toy. On a sheet of white paper we’ll make a finished drawing of a future toy - it will be easier to make individual details of the chanterelle. Do not forget to leave extra space after the circuit.

We cut out the body template of the chanterelle, attach it to the red felt and fix it with pins - this will make it easier for you to cut the fabric.

We trace the pattern along the contour, remove the paper and fold the felt in half, while leaving the pins.

Cut out the part.

Since the felt is cut out with additional space after the main contour, we attach the pattern to the material again, but without any extra grooves. Outline the contour.

Now we begin work on the muzzle - we cut out cheeks from white felt and try them on the muzzle. Do not forget about the remaining space, you need to sew on the details without going beyond the drawn outline. We embroider the eyes, nose, and ears on the details.

Now you can start stitching the two parts together using the back-needle technique. We leave a place so that you can twist the toy. We twist it.

The next step is to make the paws. We cut each part two times, sew together the front side inward, turn the element out and fill it with filler. Sew the remaining space.

We stuff the main part of the fox with synthetic winterizer, sew additional elements.
Getting to the manufacture of mugs. To do this, you also need to cut out two parts and sew them together, stuff with synthetic winterizer. The resulting part can be sewn to the legs of the toy.
