Gift for dad, gift for mom
I suggest making some nice ones present from leftover yarn. We won't knit, no. We will do felting, in other words, felting. For filing, you need a needle, but not a simple one, but with notches. The felting needle can compress the fluffy fiber and give it the density of real felt. Let's practice on daddy's slippers. The fly agaric mushroom is the most simple and elegant applique. Let's take some artificial cotton wool, fluff it up and form a mushroom stem on the slipper. To prevent the felting needle from falling into the void, place a dishwashing sponge under the slipper fabric. You don’t need any special skill here: just poke a needle into the fluffy cloud until it thickens.
We will make a mushroom cap from any fluffy wool, pulling out a silky warp thread from it. Only fibrous fluff will remain. Using the same dish sponge that we carefully removed from the slipper, we will form a triangle with rounded edges. We poke it with a needle until it compacts, but leave the workpiece a little fluffy: we finally roll it onto the slipper itself. Next, we place small pieces of white cotton wool on the cap of our fly agaric!
On the second slipper we try to maintain all the proportions, so we constantly compare the finished work on the finished slipper with the one that is still in progress.
Well, that's it! Congratulations, you did it!
Now it costs nothing for craftsmen like us to make a brooch as a gift for mom. Let it be a sleeping dog. On a dish sponge we make a silhouette from synthetic wool, which we will immediately give the shape of a pretzel, with the back facing up. Let us denote the roundness of the hind paw. Poke with a needle, compact!
From suitable wool, we again form red spots on a sponge, as in the picture, and roll them onto the body of the fox terrier. He doesn’t look too much like a dog yet, but with his triangular ears you can already recognize the general outline of a sleeping fox, right?
Let's return to the sponge again and make dark details on it from dark wool: the nose, eyelids and spots on the back.
This is how cozy and fluffy he is, our foxie.
All that remains is to attach the clasp to the finished brooch. This is a regular pin for me. I sewed it with thin threads, bringing the needle out on the front side in inconspicuous places. I masked the places on the back side where the pin was sewn with thread with a piece of batting, rolling it well to the base.
Well, for those who doubt their abilities, I recommend making a mouse brooch. It’s quite simple: a thick and short sausage, to which two round ears and a long icicle tail are glued. Let's also glue on beady eyes and a beady nose - here you have a mouse!
Tip: for greater expressiveness, I shaded the dog’s folds and the mouse’s ears with regular eye shadow and blush)))
