To start, draw the base of the horse on cardboard. Then we cut it out and use a pencil to transfer the pattern to felt. The felt can be of any color, the main thing is that the main parts are of different colors and do not merge - then the product will look brighter.
Fold the felt vertically in half, cut out the base - it turns out two identical halves, which then have to be sewn.
Before stitching the halves of the future horse, we make the tail and mane: we cut the woolen threads of short length, put them in a bundle and tie them from one end, slightly departing from the edge. For the mane, we retreat from the edge a little more - it will be a bang. You can braid the mane into pigtails. You should pre-select the color of the woolen threads for the mane and tail so that they are combined with the color of the horse itself.
We sew the two halves of our horses over the edge, not forgetting to sew the tail along the way, embroider the mouth and nostrils, glue the eyes.
The tail and mane are only half the battle, so that the horse becomes voluminous, we stuff it with cotton or other stuffing - sintepon, for example.
The saddle is cut out of felt of a different color, pieces of leather or other material are also suitable.
The saddle is also sheathed over the edge, glued to the body and decorated
rhinestones, beads or beads.
We decorate the tail and mane with ribbon bows or other decorative elements to make it look cheerful and beautiful. It is convenient to carry out all operations with gluing small elements with the help of a glue gun - this way you can ensure the supply of the right amount of glue and the most durable connection of materials, without traces of glue around the joint.
Sew a loop or metal ring - depending on the purpose of the product.
The legs of the horse are made of lace, at the end of which bead hooves are glued. Sew the legs-laces to the body, intercepting each lace with threads in the middle. The horse is ready!
You can make several such horses, a whole herd, and each one will be different, because the beauty of creating interesting things with your own hands is the beauty of the new product, it is not like the previous one, and there are no boundaries for imagination, there is no limit to perfection!
