Master classes, instructions, useful tips, recipes.
The ancient doctrine of Feng Shui convinces that souvenirs in the form of a pair attract and hold love. Therefore, Valentine's Day is an excellent occasion to present a similar talisman to loved ones and loved ones.

To stitch together lovebirds, prepare:
- cotton fabric in a small pattern and threads in harmony in color;
- filler;
- black and white acrylic paint;
- sewing tools (needle, scissors, sewing machine, dressmaker pins);
- a small piece of felt;
- satin ribbon and mouline thread for decor (optional).

So let's get started.
1. You can use the finished pattern, or you can draw it yourself (then your product will definitely turn out to be unique). Place it on a material folded twice face inward. Circle

3. Turn out, straightening the seam. Draw a line on the front side with a pencil that will separate the animals. Let's lay a machine line on it.

4. Tightly fill with filler.

5. Sew the bottom edge (we apply a blind seam). We bend the edges of the cut corner inward and also sew in inconspicuous stitches. Repeat with the second corner.

6. Draw the face with acrylic. We decorate figures at our discretion. For example, we sew a felt heart with embroidery, which will be very relevant on Valentine's Day.

To make the souvenir brighter and more interesting, you can combine fabric of different colors. For this, we will cut the animals separately and change the pattern.

1. We translate the silhouettes into cuts of fabric in harmony in color.

5. Draw the face with acrylic paints. We will tie it with a thin satin ribbon and lace, which in several places we attach with small stitches to the bodies of animals.
