To entertain children or decorate a room, you can sew a large soft toy. I decided to sew a toy swan, which will be decorated with large beads. To make it, I took white fabric, threads, cardboard, black and pink nail polish, cotton wool, reliable glue, paper for drawing up samples and details, a sewing needle, pinning needles, scissors and beads.
White Swan

Starting work, I cut out paper parts - parts from which I will need to make a sample of the future toy. The sample will tell you what the finished toy will look like, how many parts it will need, and what parts will be needed. The sample I glued together from paper parts looks like this:

White Swan


This is what it looks like from the side:

Next, I take white fabric and cut out the first three parts from it in the shape of paper samples with a small indentation (allowance). These are the head details:

Now I need to cut out four wing pieces and two body pieces:

To connect the sides from the bottom I need to cut out the bottom piece:

Next, I fold the parts of the head and neck in pairs, turning them inside out and sew them together, leaving a small area for the beak unsewn. To the front side of the neck you need to sew a part that will connect the bottom crafts with its upper part:

Then I sew the bottom piece to the sides of the body:

Now I need to sew the wing parts:

Now I turn the head of the craft inside out and cut out two beak parts for it from cardboard, in accordance with the size of the head of the craft:

I paint these parts black and pink using varnish:

After waiting for the varnish applied to the eyes and beak to dry, I fill the head of the toy with cotton wool and glue them to its front part:

White Swan


This is how the resulting head of the future toy looks from the other side:

Next, we remove the paper samples from the sewn parts of the body and turn the parts inside out, after which we fill the body of the toy with cotton wool:

This is what the body part looks like after filling:

Now all we have to do is turn the wing parts out from the inside out and introduce filler into them. After this, we will need to sew up the areas through which the cotton wool was inserted and sew them to the body with the head piece. This is what the resulting toy looks like:

White Swan


This is what it looks like from the other side:

Our craft is almost ready. All that remains is to decorate it with white beads, strung them on a thread or fishing line, and decorate the wings or head and neck with them. After this, our craft will be ready:

White Swan


This is what it will look like from the other side:

This is what it looks like from the front:

I hope this toy can be a nice decoration for a room or a gift for children. We wish you success in good deeds!
