It turns out that the head, tail and shell will consist of two parts, and the limbs of eight.

For children, such a toy, sewn with love, will be the most valuable thing and best friend, and for adults it can become a unique souvenir or gift that will be remembered for a long time.
In this master class we will talk about how to make a simple soft toy from ordinary fabric with your own hands, the creation process of which does not require a lot of effort and will not take much time. Involving a child in this work will help you spend your time with great pleasure and benefit, as a result of which you will receive a wonderful soft toy - a turtle.
So, to make such a toy we need to prepare:
- small pieces of cotton or calico fabric of a suitable color (for example, green for the head and paws, brown for the shell);
- paper patterns;
- any filler (foam rubber, padding polyester or ordinary cotton wool);
- beads or small buttons for eyes;
- sewing needle, thread, pins and scissors.
Also, grab the appropriate creative mood that will help you create this original toy.
Work order:
- First you need to make patterns for the parts of the future soft toy on tracing paper or plain paper: two parts of a turtle’s head, two parts of a tail, two parts of a shell with a diameter of about thirty centimeters (the lower part of the shell should be slightly smaller than the top), eight parts of paws (two for each out of four).
- We transfer all the details of the pattern onto the prepared fabric: to do this, pin the pattern parts to the material using pins, trace them and cut them out.
- To make the turtle's shell slightly convex, we make four darts on the upper part of the shell, cut from fabric, as shown in the photo.
- Then we sew together the parts of the turtle’s paws and head, which we fill not very tightly with filler, as well as its tail (there is no need to stuff the tail with padding polyester).
- Next, we sew together the parts of the shell (top and bottom), leaving holes for stuffing and sewing on the head, paws and tail of the soft toy.
- By hand, using a hidden seam, we sew in all the details in certain places around the circumference of the shell so that the cavities of the head and paws are connected to the cavity of the turtle's shell.
- After the shell is completely stuffed, you need to sew in the turtle's tail and sew up the hole using a blind stitch.
- The final stage of our master class is sewing black beads or buttons (eyes) in certain places on the turtle's head.
The work is finished, and a wonderful handmade soft toy is ready! To make it, we used materials that can be found in every home.
Such a turtle can serve not only as your child’s favorite toy: it can be used as a pillow, hugging him with pleasure and quickly falling asleep.
Using the process described above, you can make other simple soft toys from fabric, for example, a bear, for the creation of which we will need the same materials and tools. To do this, you first need to make a toy pattern. It's so simple that you won't special effort You can make it yourself using the appropriate drawing.
Then you need to transfer the pattern onto the fabric, folded in half, fasten it, trace and cut out the details of the bear from the fabric. Having connected the parts of the bear with the front side inward, we sew them together, not forgetting to leave gaps for turning the toy inside out and filling it with padding polyester or any other filler. We turn the toy inside out and fill it with filler, and the more filler there is, the cuter and fluffier the soft toy will be.
At the final stage, using beads or buttons, we make the bear’s eyes and nose, and also use thick thread embroidery to decorate the mouth. That's all, our bear is ready. You can dress it up by sewing pants and a T-shirt separately.
You can also make soft toys with your own hands in the form of a cat, baby elephant, horse and many other animals, using a variety of patterns and natural fabrics.
The principle of creating a toy remains the same: we make a pattern, cut out two parts of the figurine from the fabric, sew them facing each other, leaving gaps for turning the toy inside out. Fill the figure with any filler. At your discretion, we decorate the face of the toy, using your imagination and available materials (threads for the cat’s whiskers, beads for the eyes, ribbon for the mouth).
Such toys can be made with a frame, using bendable metal wire to create it, and pliers and an awl to mount it.
Today, patterns for creating soft toys can be found in special printed publications, on handicraft websites, as well as in retail chains that sell sets containing necessary materials for making such a toy (fabric, pattern, thread) and detailed instructions, which is very suitable for beginner needlewomen. And the simplest and affordable way making a pattern with your own hands means ripping open an old unnecessary toy and removing the pattern from it. In this case, it is better to use thick paper or cardboard, which will last much longer and is easier to work with than regular paper.
What fabric is most suitable for creating such a toy? The most suitable fabrics for this are:
- knitwear that stretches easily;
- cotton fabrics, often having bright colorful colors;
- terry cloth, velor or velvet, which are useful for simulating animal fur;
- flannel or flannel, which are suitable for making animals with smoother skin;
- jeans, toys from which look very stylish and will decorate any interior. At the same time, denim material is very easy to work with.
