In the 90s of the 20th century the Scandinavian needlewomanshe sewed a doll from the scraps of an unfit cloth and called it Tilda. The name became a household name, and the toys conquered the whole world. Probably in every house there is a man-made or bought doll - a tilde. They bring to the interior a cozy and a touch of antiquity.
Sew a beautiful doll for the strength of even beginnersskilled workers. Tilda is an incredibly simple toy and is famous for its simplicity in making. Find patterns of tilde dolls with dimensions is almost impossible, since the pattern is simple and differs by minimalism. In order to start making your own tilde patterns, it's enough to cut the toy once.
Above is the first part of the tilde doll patternreal size. This image must be printed on A4 paper. Each part is made from one kind of fabric, and the dotted line indicates places for lace tape and assemblies.
The second part of the pattern of the tilde doll in naturalthe value is also calculated for A4 format. As can be seen from the drawing, the finished toy will have small wings. Doing them is not necessary, if, according to the idea of the author, the image of the doll is domestic, wings can even be superfluous.
The photo above shows the finished work,made on the basis of the patterns of a tilde doll in full size. The final form of the product depends very much on the materials selected and the quality of the concealed joints.
Selecting fabrics and other materials is better withready-made patterns. The design of a tilde doll in full size is more convenient to make on a thick paper - so they can be pinned to the fabric and not be afraid to spoil them.
Ready-made patterns of toys are laid out on selectedmaterials to make sure they are compatible with each other. Transferring patterns to the fabric, do not forget about the allowances. As a filler it is better to use sintepon, but ordinary cotton wool will do.
Once the details of the toy are cut, you can start sewing and stuffing dolls. Some parts can be sewn on a typewriter, for example a trunk.
Patterns are put together with the faceInside, the pieces can be tied with tailor's studs or gathered on a string. You do not need to complete the lower edge. The trunk should be turned out and evenly filled.
In the same way, the remaining partstoys. Particular attention should be paid to the pair details: hands, feet and wings. Flaws and sloppy seams can cause the arms and legs to look asymmetrical. In order for the legs to bend, a stitch should be inserted in the middle of each limb.
The tulle skirt, like other clothes, performsseparately. You can not sew ready-made items to the doll, but just wear it. For beginners, it's better to simplify the work and carefully sew the skirt as shown in the image above. The main thing is to try to make the seam as little as possible.
The hands and wings of the doll tilde also need to be sewn very neatly. The seam should be even, the position of the parts is symmetrical with respect to the trunk of the toy.
Hairstyle is an important element of the tilde doll image. To imitate the hair, you can take knitting yarn, but the best is the natural wool, which can be purchased at handicraft shops and hobbies.
The secret of beautiful tilde hair is that it is necessary to sew the mass to the head with the same hair, and not threads. In the image above, you can consider in detail the method of doing this part of the work.
For beautiful "sheepskin" it is necessary to take a thin copper wire and wind on it a part of the doll's hair. Then you just need to roll the rod, bend it well and hide the end of the wire.
