Tilda doll (angel)

Perhaps, this toy can be called the most popular and recognizable character in the world of Tild. An angel has many hypostases - she can be depicted as a modest girl with a halo over her head, as a sleeping beauty or a New Year's fairy. But all these characters are united by femininity, brevity of the image and simplicity of execution. Quite often, the angel Tilda is called upon to perform a very specific function. For example, he keeps a needle pillow in the sewing corner or cotton buds in the bathroom. All these dolls have in common:

• First of all, Tildas are quite curvaceous.
• Second, they have a rather small head.
• And finally, each has its own character.

In them, she detailstells how to sew toys, and offers ready-made patterns. The next way is to purchase a ready-made branded set, which has all the necessary materials.

Today we want to tell you how to sew a wonderful doll for the bathroom. Angel Tilda will decorate your apartment or will be a great gift that will not leave anyone indifferent. So, how is Tilda (angel) done? You can see the master class below:

• Choose fabric for body, doll robe, towel, slippers and panties. It is better to stay on natural materials (cotton, calico or linen).
• Print the pattern or just lay the paper on the monitor and redraw. After that, cut it out and transfer it to the fabric.
• Fold the blanks in half (so that the result is two identical parts) and sew them on the sewing machine. If you decide to work manually, then the “needle forward” seam will help you.
• Cut out the pieces, leaving some space around the seam, with curly scissors. If you don’t have them, then use the usual ones, but at the end make cuts in placescurves.
• Turn out the finished parts and fill with filler using a sushi stick. The arms and legs should be filled halfway, then stitched and continue stuffing, but not so tightly. In this way, you will ensure mobility for your Tilda, and now she can sit or hold something in her hands.
• Sew all body parts together.
• It's time to work on clothes. Transfer the patterns to the fabric, cut out the details and sew them together. Put the panties on the doll and sew them to the body. The robe is made in the same way. Put the finished product on the doll, and to make it look more neat, sew its edges together.
• For a towel, it is best to use terry cloth. Cut off a piece from it and wrap it around Tilda's head as it is usually done after a bath. After that, sew the towel with thread so that it does not fall.
• Sew wings. To do this, transfer the pattern to the fabric, sew the details and cut them out. After that, the product should be turned out, ironed and filled with sintepukh or holofiber. Sew finished wings to back.
• Use acrylic paints or your own cosmetics to paint the doll's mouth and blush. You can also draw the eyes with paints, but it is better to make them with the help of threads - for this you will need to make French knots from the floss. Some crafters prefer to use beads.

Tilda is ready. It remains to make a few final touches - make terry cloth slippers for her, a belt and hand over a box with cotton buds lined with fabric. You can also givebathing beauty in the hands of a towel, washcloth or hair dryer. You can hang the finished decoration by the mirror or in the bathroom.

Shutting down

As you know, the devil is in the details. Therefore, before completing the work, carefully inspect the doll from all sides. Remove unnecessary threads and adjust clothing. You may want to decorate the angel wings with beads, ribbons, or lace. In order not to overload the image of Tilda, look at the photos of the original source - the work of Toni Finnanger, and do not forget that Tilda is a simple but stylish lady.
