For work, we need:
Materials:
-
Cotton fabric for the body and dress dolls. I prefer natural fabrics from America, Germany, Korea, Japan. For this pupa I took German and American tissue mint and gray colors.
-
Sewing thread to match the fabric. For the body and head dolls, it is desirable to use a strong thread to avoid tearing during stuffing. I like reinforced, 45 pp.

Pattern. For each pupa I am a little changing the pattern, so working patterns I have a few. Here’s a variation of one of them:
To begin with we take a pattern arms and two heads of the pattern and fabric skin color, draw out the pattern on the fabric. For details of the arms and the back of the head cloth folded in half inside out, in front of the head – a single layer of fabric.
The body of the doll will consist of two parts: the neck and the upper part of the dress. So first we cut out two pieces of flesh-colored fabric and two pieces of fabric on the bodice (mine is monotonous gray cloth), sew pairs one piece of body tissue and fabric for the dress.
Let’s go back to the details of the pupa. They have already been cut and stitched. If the details are still visible traces of the pencil / marker, they should be washed off after drying parts. We gut-wrenching details of the head, torso, hands and arms through the holes for eversion.On the wings of the details we do neat small cut on one layer of fabric, vertically, between the two wings without hitting at the same time inside the loop. Gut-wrenching detail wings gently through the incision. Out at the details to iron iron.
Getting packing details. Fills should be small pieces of filler, gradually compacting it. You do not need much to stamp filler tool for stuffing, or may appear cellulite effect. At the same time, try to fill the parts quite tight, to avoid voids and creases fabric. To while stuffing the body filler from slipping away from the neck, it is necessary after printing the neck to fix it a few pins. Tip: before you fill the body, sew two buttons at the bottom of the details, in the middle of stitched seams. These buttons will hang in future packaging cotton discs. Preferred to do to the body pack.
Take small strands of wool and privalivaem them to head dolls needle felting, forming a “cap.” Tip: To dolly all hairs are not covered, it is better to close the trunk privalivaniya hair, I put a plastic bag on it. Then we take the already wavy strands and one privalivaem it to the head.First privalivaem the contour cap, then parting. Form the hairstyle, trying different options until you find one that will like our doll. I left my hair loose, tying several pryadok on the sides in ponytails decorated with bows from Shabby-ribbons.
Glue Eyelashes doll. Take the lash strip is applied to its age and cut the required length. Promazyvayut lash base universal glue with a toothpick or pin. Also, apply the adhesive to the area above the eye dolls. Gently, helping himself with a clean toothpick, apply tape to the eye lashes, a little pushing to grab adhesive. In the same way we glue the lashes on the other eye. I am also a little touched up the tips of the cilia brown acrylic paint using an old toothbrush since the cilia to me seemed a bit faded and thin. If you wish to put on your eyes and lips acrylic lacquer.
