Tulips are very popular now, they are used to decorate the interior. They also sew cute toys in the tilde style and put wonderful fabric tulips in their hands. You can sew a tulip from fabric of any size.
Fabric matching
Tilda-style toys are sewn mainly from natural fabrics. You can take linen, cotton and other fabrics of soothing tones. Tulips made using this technique are often made from rich fabrics. When you can not find the material of the desired color, you can tint a little white. For this, it is permissible to use natural dyes such as tea or onion, in addition, aniline dyes can be used. The main thing is to dye the fabric evenly. Sewing fabric tulips with your own hands is not as easy as it seems, because you need to do some careful work with the details.
You can use synthetic winterizer or holofiber to stuff tulips. For the stems, a thin wire is used, which allows the filler to give the stems the necessary bend.
Flower pattern
Since tulips can be sewn in different ways, there may be different sizes and patterns. Fabric tulips can be made based on the one below. For convenience, the above pattern can be copied directly from the monitor screen onto transparent paper. It can also be printed on a printer, and there are additional functions where you can choose the size of the printed image.
If you build a pattern yourself, it is recommended to adhere to the following proportions. The leaf pattern is slightly smaller than the stem. As in nature, the leaves on the stem of a tulip grow almost from the ground and catch up with the flower itself in height. The size of the bud is about the same as a real unopened tulip bud (9 cm), the height of the stem can be adjusted, depending on which vase the flower will stand in.
Working with tools and cloth
To sew a tulip from fabric, you will need the fabric itself for leaves and stem in one color, and for flowers, you can choose fabrics in one color scheme or in shades that will look harmonious in a bouquet. You will also need stuffing material and the pattern itself.
Pins are useful for fixing the pattern on the fabric, it is very convenient to use. In order to cut out the details, it is better to use curly scissors with a zigzag. This will keep the fabric from shedding, but if there are no such scissors, then you can leave the edge as it is, just in this case you should not cut the allowances close to the seam, otherwise the seam will open when stuffed. If you follow the recommendations, then you can easily sew tulips from fabric. The master class offered below covers all stages of work in detail.
If synthetic fabric is used, allowances can be scorched, otherwise the seams will simply fall apart when stuffed.
Working with patterns
Ready-made patterns need to be pinned to the fabric. For one tulip, it is necessary to cut out 2 parts of a bud along an oblique thread, 2 parts of a leaf along a shared thread and one part for a leg along a shared thread.
When the details are cut out, they need to be stitched. A fabric tulip consists of three elements: a stem, a leaf and a bud. In order for all the elements to look neat after turning out, it is necessary to cut the fabric at the corners of the stem and in the corner of the tulip. After eversion, there will be no unnecessary compaction in these places. It is not difficult to turn out the leaf and the bud, but you will have to work carefully with the stem so as not to break it along the seam. Depending on the thickness of the stem, you can use a knitting needle or a sushi stick. Three stitched blanks must be filled with filler.
Collecting Parts
Putting all the details together is no less responsible task than neat cutting and stitching. Handmade fabric tulips will be a valuable gift for everyone, because having handmade products is a real luxury, craftsmen put their whole soul into creating such masterpieces.
The bud needs to be pulled off a bit. Due to the fact that the details for it were cut along an oblique thread, it acquires a beautiful rounded shape. At the base of the budleg must be inserted. The leg must first also be filled with synthetic winterizer and then insert the wire for the entire length of the leg. We fix the stalk with a hidden seam at the base of the bud. Here the fabric tulip is ready, it remains only to sew on a leaf.
The leaf does not need to be filled with anything, but it is advisable to iron it from the front side so that it becomes flat and the inner seams do not bulge. We carefully draw the base of the petal, for this the raw edge is tucked inward and fixed with a hidden seam. It remains to fix the leaf on the stem. We wrap the stem with a leaf and sew it with inconspicuous neat seams. The flower is ready!
