You will need
- - two pieces of fabric similar in color
- -curly braid
- - synthetic winterizer
- -lining fabric
- -contrasting fabric
- -sewing machine
Instructions
Measure the circumference of the teapot (including the handle and spout) and its height. In accordance with these dimensions, make a pattern according to the proposed shape. Because Both parts of the heating pad are combined from two colors of fabrics, then we need to first sew strips of fabric by inserting curly braid into the seams and ironing them.
Next, using a ruler, draw parallel stripes at equal distances from each other. We put a layer of synthetic padding and sew off all the stripes using a machine. We will cut out the front and back parts of the heating pad from this quilted fabric.
Next you need to make an applique from contrasting fabric. We take special paper for appliques, it is sold in craft stores, and iron one side of it to the wrong side of the fabric for applique. Cut out the teapot figurine and glue it to the future pocket. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Now you need to sew the outline of the teapot using a machine using a decorative stitch, for example, a zig-zag stitch. We baste the finished pocket to the front of the heating pad. Let's sew.
We cut out the lining parts from the lining fabric, sew them together, and iron them. We insert the lining into the heating pad and carefully sew it together. The edge can be finished with bias tape suitable color. To ensure that the lining holds well, sew it in some places with a hidden seam to the heating pad.
For lining it is better to use cotton fabric. It retains heat better than synthetic fabrics.

By inflating a heating pad, you can surprise your guests, show your strength, and simply amuse those around you. This is because not everyone can afford this trick. Bogatyrs and champions are obviously capable of such a trick. But teenagers, pensioners, and housewives also manage to inflate hot water bottles. This is because they know a few secrets.
You will need
- Medium-sized medical rubber heating pad.
Instructions
Inflate without training heating pad it will be unrealistic. First, you must take care of yourself, develop your strength, become physically prepared, and most importantly, gain strong and healthy breathing. The trick of inflating a heating pad can be done not only by heroes with remarkable strength, but also heating pad Musicians, in particular saxophonists and trombonists, and swimmers who have to hold their breath underwater can easily try to inflate. All because they are the ones long years learn to control their breathing and have well-trained, strong lungs.
Nothing is impossible. Internally you have to believe what you cheat heating pad– as simple as cheating balloon. Moral preparation is no less important in this responsible matter. Remember that victory goes only to purposeful, self-confident, optimistic people!
There are small "swindlers". The heating pad follows from, for the first experiment it should be small (medium) in size. Medical heating pad Be sure to steam it in boiling water before attempting the trick. This will make it more elastic and inflate a little tighter than a thick-walled rubber Pilates ball.
When starting to inflate the heating pad, concentrate, take a deep breath and exhale sharply into the opening of the heating pad. Pinch the hole as you take your next breath into your lungs to prevent air from escaping from the heating pad. The first 5-7 breaths will be warm-up, that is, the heating pad will simply fill with air and tighten. Next comes the most difficult part. Exhale sharply and often, pressing tightly heating pad to the mouth. As soon as it begins to stretch, the task will become more difficult, each exhalation heating pad Everything will be given with great difficulty. The main thing is not to let the air out of the heating pad by accidentally opening the hole. Once you feel the limit, plug the hole in the heating pad with a rubber stopper. Can heating pad inflate until it bursts. But not everyone can do this.
note
Unusual competitions for inflating hot water bottles are often part of sports games and championships among heroes. Typically, athletes are tasked with inflating large heating pads with their mouths for time or volume (when the diameter of the inflated heating pad is measured with a meter tape). But the organizers go further. At the Hot Water Warmer Inflating Championship, strongmen are invited to inflate these same hot water bottles with their noses! And not just inflate, but also tear. This type of “sport” has already created its own records: the first one was set in the USA in 2006 - there a heating pad burst from inflating the nostrils in 51.98 seconds. Soon, an athlete from Tbilisi broke this record, spending 23 seconds to inflate the first heating pad, the second - 16 seconds, and the third - only 14 seconds! This record has not yet been broken.
A teapot warmer in the shape of a rooster is an excellent solution for decoration. own home. She will also become a good gift for friends and family.
You will need
- - red felt;
- - white felt;
- - blue felt;
- - black felt – for the eyes;
- - yellow or brown – for beak and paws;
- - padding polyester;
- - needle;
- - threads of suitable colors.
Instructions
First you need to make the right pattern. Take measurements. You need to measure your kettle to know how tall and wide the cover should be. We find out the diameter of the bottom, divide it by 2. This will be the lower edge of the product parts. Then we get a measurement from the bottom to the lid. Here it is better to use a centimeter, and transfer the obtained data to paper using a ruler. This will be the height of the cap. The remaining details are easier to cut out. But here, too, rationality must be observed. The comb follows the outline of the head, along its upper part. There should be a lower red part under the beak. The beak should consist of two elements - lower and upper. There must also be two eyes. For them we make two circles of white felt and two, smaller in size– from black. Blue felt was proposed for the body, and white felt for the wings.
Warmers for teapots have been in use for quite some time. This is due to the fact that it was easier to wrap ancient samovars and teapots properly, retaining heat, than to reheat them each time. Nowadays, a heating pad for a teapot is more a tribute to tradition than a severe necessity. But one cannot help but admit that tea, which was not just brewed but brewed using a heating pad, is much tastier.
What is such a thing? A case with insulation that covers the teapot. But leaving everything like this would be too boring, so housewives and craftswomen are experimenting with various forms who take such heating pads. The most popular options are dolls or women. And this is quite logical - the wide skirts are a cover with insulation, and the upper part of the doll is purely decorative. Also popular are warmers in the shape of cats, chickens, owls, houses and fruits. They attract the attention of beginning craftswomen, since making them with your own hands is much easier than sewing a doll.
Material
There are only two options. Knitting warmers for a teapot, crochet, most often. Knitting patterns rarely contain complex combinations of elements - their function is rather to indicate increases and decreases. Amigurumi knitting is practical, but at the same time, toys knitted using this technique are simply charming. You can also knit some kind of toy for a teapot using knitting needles, but it will be difficult to find any stunning patterns for this purpose, so crochet patterns are more common among craftsmen self made.
In addition, kettle covers can be sewn by hand or sewing machine . Such patterns are not complicated - at least their lower parts. Wide skirts They are sewn around the circumference, but the top, the woman or the doll itself, is sewn differently. This could be a tilde doll, or a nylon doll. Some people prefer to sew fairy-tale princesses, while others will like the Baba Yaga doll – it’s a matter of taste. It is only worth noting that without skill and practice it will be difficult to sew Baba Yaga from any material - she is too typical a character.

Tilda heating pad for a teapot - step-by-step master class
Since Tilda dolls are not only people, but also animals, a cute teapot warmer in the shape of a giraffe would be an excellent option for such a craft. So, heating pad for a teapot - the master class will require:
First step. The main warmer, that is, the doll's skirt. For it, you need to cut a piece of fabric 74 by 80, and from the filler - 70 by 80. This difference is made so that the skirt can then be folded and gathered without problems, and at the same time it has the required form, and not bristling in all directions.
Second step. You need to draw squares on the base material. They will be needed for further quilting of the skirt. A piece of fabric is divided in half vertically, then horizontally. Next, 15.5 cm are laid off from the center. This way you will get a lined field, and the rectangles at the edges will be narrower than the central ones.
Third step. Place the lined fabric on the padding polyester and pin it together. Next, you need to sew on a machine, but do this not along the drawn lines, but retreating from them by 2-3 mm on both sides. Thus, the drawn line will be between two seams. These are pockets for the frame.
Fourth step. Fold the sewing in half with the fabric side facing inward and stitch closed. After this, turn it out and fold it in half horizontally. Measure the wire and insert it into the pockets.
Fifth step. Fold the top of the skirt slightly and sew it with a hidden seam. After this, the top is gathered. Fix the assembly in such a way that, if desired, the thread can be loosened or, conversely, tightened relative to the doll’s body. The skirt is ready.
Sixth step. Transfer the pattern to the fabric - you will need 2 parts for the body, paws, ears and horns. Cut with seam allowances and sew. In the places of rounding, make notches on the allowances; this is necessary so that the parts come out without creases.
Seventh step. Turn the parts right side out, stuff with filling, and sew the edges with a blind stitch.
Eighth step. Assembly. Sew horns and ears to the head - their location and inclination can be different, everything is individual. Next, insert the giraffe inside the skirt, check the assembly, and sew the doll to the skirt. Do not sew on the paws!
Ninth step. Measure the torso, cut out two parts from colored material - for clothes. Sew the parts, fold and stitch all the edges, iron the seams. After this, sew the second edge and put it on the giraffe. Sleeves for a dress are made in the same way - with the difference that it is not necessary to measure the girth, but simply increase the paw pattern by 5-7 mm. Sew the sleeves and put them on the paws. After this, sew the paws to the body.
Tenth step. The overskirt is made of colored fabric, its size is 35 by 100 cm. The edges are decorated with lace and braid. Iron all seams, gather the top a little and put it on the petticoat. Finish the assembly “according to the figure” and fix it.
Eleventh step. Draw eyes and blush. Gently roll your hair and create a hairstyle - at least a braid. Tilda is ready!
Do-it-yourself heating pad for a teapot “Cat” - a small master class
Many people cannot imagine home comfort without a cat in the apartment. These fluffy wayward purrs really create their own atmosphere. A handmade hot water bottle in the shape of a cat will undoubtedly make tea drinking even more cozy. This is done simply and quickly. To work you will need:
- fabric, sheet filling (sintepon) and some bulk;
- sewing supplies;

First stage. Transfer the details from the pattern to the fabric and cut with seam allowances. On one side of the heating pad all the elements will be located - both the cat’s face and its tail. There will be a small pocket on the back for tea bags or other small items.
Second phase. The main part consists of two pieces, inside of which the insulation is located. Cut a piece from padding polyester, the edges 1–1.5 cm smaller than the main part. Sew the fabric cover of the first half, turn it right side out. Sew on the tail part, then put padding polyester inside the part. Sew the bottom with a hidden seam. Do the same with the second half, but sew a pocket across the entire width instead of a tail. Sew both halves along the upper part with a hidden seam, if desired, trim with braid.
Third stage. Using the pattern, sew a cat's face. Fill with filling and sew to the front of the warmer. Treat the bottoms with braid. The cat-shaped heating pad is ready!

Relevance. New Year is on the list of holidays that are dearly loved not only by children, but also by adults. They look forward to it and believe that on this day something magical and fabulous will happen. The main tradition of this holiday is the exchange of gifts with friends and family. One of the gifts in the year of the Rooster can be a useful item for every housewife in everyday life - a heating pad for a “Cockerel” teapot. It’s easy to make a heating pad for a teapot in the shape of a cockerel or a chicken.
The mood of all family members depends on whether our kitchen is cozy... And to create this coziness, you can decorate the kitchen interior with handmade crafts. This does not require too much time and large financial expenditures. Craftswomen only need desire and a positive attitude in their work. Although this activity is quite interesting, it is also painstaking; and requires perseverance, patience, imagination, and skills in working with fabric.
You can sew such a heating pad from fabric, insulation (for example, synthetic padding), various ribbons, braid and lace.
Target- attract the attention of adults to creativity and production New Year's gifts with your own hands (kettle warmers and oven mitts).
So, to sew a heating pad for a teapot we will need the following materials and tools:
paper, ruler, pencil - for patterns; colored fabric(preferably cotton: chintz, calico, madapolam, flannel, gauze, etc.); padding polyester, threads, braid, scissors, universal glue, lace, felt (optional), beads, buttons or blanks for decorating crafts (eyes), sewing machine.
Stages of work.
1. Make a paper pattern. Draw the details of the heating pad on paper:
body – 4 parts (two front and two back), tail – 2 parts, comb – 2 parts, beak – 2 parts, beard – 2 parts, wings – 2 parts. Cut out the parts with scissors.
2. Make a pattern from fabric and padding polyester.
Cut out four parts of the rooster's body from colored fabric.
It is better to cut out the comb, beard, and beak from red fabric, the tail and wings from any colored fabric.
Notes e. In order for the tea leaves in the teapot to remain hot for a long time, insulation is needed inside the heating pad. The insulation is usually batting or padding polyester.
Cut out 2 parts of the body from white padding polyester.
Mark the inner stitching lines on the backing piece.
Connect the wrong part of the body with padding polyester. Use a sewing machine to stitch the inside stitching.
We will need 2 of these parts for the heating pad.
You can put padding polyester inserts inside the wings (for volume).
3. Connect the parts of the Cockerel heating pad.
Attach the wing parts to the front part of the body, maintaining symmetry on the two parts.
Sew the wings to the body using a zigzag stitch.
The result was two identical front parts.
Place the ponytail parts right sides facing each other and add a layer of padding polyester.
Sew with a straight stitch, turn the tail piece right side out and straighten it out.
Sew the details of the comb, beard and beak in the same way.
We have the following finished parts for the heating pad.
To the front part of the body, baste the details of the head of the heating pad (comb, beard, beak).
Machine stitch the two pieces of the body, wrong side up.
Turn the heating pad right side out and straighten the parts of the heating pad.
4. Product edging. Bias tape is used to edge the edges of the product. The bright edging looks very impressive. rich color.
Once you've learned how to cut, stitch, and sew bias tape, you're ready to create various options finishing of products. Be sure to make test samples so as not to be disappointed with the result.
It is much easier to edge a product than to process it with a facing or edging, so if the product is sewn from heavy or coarse fabric, as well as from transparent fabric, a wide facing is undesirable. In this case, edging made of bias tape made of cotton or lining fabric.
Baste bias tape made of white fabric to the bottom raw part.
Sew bias tape.
Glue “eyes” to the product. We take the blank “eyes” and universal glue. Glue the “eyes” to the heating pad, placing the cockerel symmetrically on the head.
5. Our The “Cockerel” teapot warmer is ready!
Take a teapot.
Let's try on our heating pad. To do this, we put a heating pad on the teapot.
If you want to make a slightly different shape of the body, you can, for example, increase the height of this pattern - make the top round or elongated towards the top - this is how you can make a chicken or a sitting cat, the head will be in the middle. If desired, you can sew on the paws or just mark them with a stitch.
The result is a bright, beautiful product that will invite you to a family tea party and delight your household with its New Year's mood whole year!
Similarly, you can sew heating pads from another fabric. And for a complete gift set - sew oven mitts or mittens.
Coming soon new year and This year will be the year of the fiery Rooster, so I propose to sew such a funny rooster for a teapot for yourself or as a gift to your loved ones. This work is simple and practically both a teenager and an adult can sew it.
For work we will need the main fabric, I have in this case flannel. Lining fabric chintz, lace, red fabric for the comb and beard, a piece of yellow fabric 8*8 cm for the beak, a pair of eyes, threads to match the fabric and padding polyester. The padding polyester should be thick, if you have it thin, then you need to take it in two layers. You can use batting.
The pattern is given without allowances. The seam allowance on the sides of the Cockerel and the neck should be 1 cm, and at the bottom 4 cm. When you cut the lining, 2 parts need to be cut with an allowance of 4 cm, and two without an allowance, just make allowances for the sides and along the neck.
The whole work consists of three parts. The first is the cut of all the details. The second is sewing the carcass of the Cockerel insulation. The third is sewing the top and assembling our product. And so let's start cutting. We cut out 2 parts of the body of the Cockerel from flannel, make allowances. We outline the pattern with a piece of dry soap. Don't trace with a ballpoint pen!
In the pattern of the upper part, I cut out the wing so that it would be convenient to mark the place for sewing on the lace imitating wings. We apply markings along the face of the fabric of the already cut piece with soap.
We cut the Cockerel's tail, as well as his comb and beard.
Fold the padding polyester in half, apply the pattern and cut it out without allowances.
We put padding polyester on the inside of the lining with a bottom allowance and cover it with a lining piece, which we made without an allowance. We combine the edges, fold the seam allowance to the top and pin it together, as in the next photo.
Now we manually sweep both parts from all sides. We do this so that when we quilt our part, the padding polyester does not move inside.
Now we start stitching from bottom to top, then turn, stitch 3 cm and go down, etc. So, without stopping, we quilt the entire part. This is what it will look like.
Next we take the quilted 2 parts and match the edges. The hem of the fabric should be at the top and sew along the side, then we go along the neck and again along the side. You get this design. We do not process the edges, as they will be inside the product.
Let's proceed to the second stage. Sew the lace to the wing marked on the pattern.
I have narrow nylon lace. I layered them and sewed them like this.
Now we baste and sew on the comb, making small folds. We do this on both parts.
Fold the yellow fabric for the beak in half, then again and diagonally so that you get a triangle. This is a beak. We pin it or sew it so that it looks into the inside of the product, as in the photo. We turn away the comb. I forgot to take a picture of this moment, so I took a picture when I was sewing the second cockerel. When you have inserted the beak, put on the second piece and pin or stitch along the side, then go along the comb, then again along the side.
This is what it should look like when you have chipped both parts. When you have stitched it, turn our Petya out. There is no need to process the edges.
Now you have turned the Cockerel inside out, straighten the seams with your hands and stuff the comb, but not very tightly, with padding polyester. Now put the insulation piece we just sewed onto the carcass like a sock on your foot. Correct all the edges, wrap the bottom flannel allowance inside the Rooster, pin it with pins and hem it by hand.
This is how you will get it inside, everything is very neat.
We sew the tail. We put lace on the face of one part, put the second part on top and sew it, turn it inside out, put in padding polyester and sew the bottom. The tail is ready!
Preparation for the master class To sew a heating pad for a teapot in the shape of a dog, you will need materials and tools: plain thick cotton fabric for the front part, 50x50 cm; multi-colored cotton fabric for the ear 15x15 cm; dense material (any) for the backing 30x60 cm; padding polyester material with stitching for internal insert 30x60cm; thin padding polyester fabric 30x50cm; decorative elements (eye, nose, sequins, beads, buttons, chain, etc.); braid or strap 15 cm; threads to match the fabric; scissors; sewing machine Pattern and technique for sewing a dog You can use the presented pattern of a dog by printing the drawing on a printer, without borders, the width of the product is 25 cm, the height is 17 cm. However, everyone’s teapots are different, so it’s better to make an individual pattern for the heating pad, having previously measured the height and width of the teapot. On a piece of paper, draw the outlines of the future dog. Place the resulting numbers on paper and draw a rectangle with rounded top edges. Based on the size of the main part, draw all the other elements (head, ear and tail) in proportion. Cut out all the necessary parts, taking into account allowances of 1-1.5 cm: The base of the teapot warmer is rectangles with rounded upper edges. You should end up with 7 parts (two front parts, two backing parts, two made of padding polyester fabric with stitching, and one made of padding polyester fabric). Dog's head - 2 symmetrical blanks from the main material. Tail – 2 identical parts made of the main material. Ear – 2 symmetrical ears of one or two colors. Sew the two ears of the dog, leaving room for turning the product inside out. Turn it inside out and iron it well. Sew the tail details. Turn it inside out and iron it. Fill the ponytail with padding polyester. Connect both parts of the head by placing the ear piece between them. Sew, remembering to leave a gap for turning. Make sure that your ear does not get under the stitching where it is not needed. Turn the dog's head inside out and fill it with padding polyester. Use hot glue to attach the dog's eye and nose. You can use ordinary buttons as decorative elements of a dog warmer for a teapot. Using a needle and thread, secure the sequins to the muzzle by passing the thread through the beads. The dog's face is ready. Sew the main and lining fabric pieces along the bottom edge. On the front side, draw a pattern simulating paws with chalk or soap. Make a delay along the drawn lines. Fill the paws with padding polyester. Use the braid to create a loop through which you can remove the teapot warmer and hang it on a hook. Apply the previously prepared decorative elements of the heating pad and secure them with a stitch. Decorate the junction of the neck with braid. Between the front and lining fabric of the back, insert a sheet of padding polyester. Connect the main pieces using safety pins or basting. Sew, leaving the bottom edge free. Turn the product inside out and secure the dog’s head for the heating pad with a couple of stitches so that it does not fall. Connect the two parts intended for insertion and secure with a stitch, without touching the bottom. Place the insert into the dog warmer with the right side facing out, ensuring that all exposed edges remain inside the product. Fold the bottom inward and secure with safety pins. To make it easier to process the bottom edge, it is better to baste it. Finish the bottom edge with bias tape or a strip of fabric, similar to the bias tape principle. Sew the binding along the wrong side. Unfold the binding and stitch across the face. It remains to add a few bright touches. Sew a chain with a pom-pom onto the dog's collar, and a small bow onto the tail. The adorable dog is ready, now you will always have delicious hot tea on your table. This homemade teapot warmer is ideal as a gift for the New Year (especially in the Year of the Dog), March 8, Teacher's Day. Don't be too lazy to do it a pleasant surprise for a grandmother or mother, because the value of a thing increases tenfold if it is made with love.
