How To Sew
Embroidered Toys
There are multiple patterns
for cross stitched toys and downloadable
patterns and designs are available on the
internet nearly everywhere one looks.
Welcoming a newborn home
from the hospital with a toy monogrammed with
his or her initials would make a lovely
personalized gift as well as being safe for the
newborn.
A birthday boy would be
entranced with his birthday details embroidered
on his own more adult version of this toy idea
and a hand made teddy bear would not be
completed with out having the eyes and bow tie
made of an embroidered design.
A simple gift for your
child's kindergarten class at Easter or
Christmas might be to make up enough simply
sewn teddy bears or rabbits and using your
embroidery skills and a free embroidery pattern
from the internet, which are easily found, to
embroider the features and give one to each
child from the class. These could be made more
special if you have your child help you to add
the stuffing to the embroidered animal This
would also be an extra special gift from your
child when the school year is over.
Not only do inclusions on
our crafts come off during play, but also when
laundering or cleaning, rendering the toys
somewhat less attractive and less likely to be
used.
When we use embroidery
designs to build the attention getting parts of
the toy, such as shoes, clothing or eyes, nose
and mouth, the result is both a safer toy and
one that is far more durable than plastic
additions which can catch and pull off or
loosen in time.
How many of us have heard
the small child complain that his bear has no
hands, or his nose is missing, when one of the
plastic items has pulled off or been lost to
the washing machine?
Most of us have effected a
repair to that well loved animal using
embroidery designs to accomplish it.. Why not
do that to begin with, so that the missing
facial features never enters into play.
Embroidery is one of the
safest methods of making toys for infants and
very small children.
Using such items as buttons
and plastic eyes can mean an injury that is
easily avoided if we avoid using those types of
inclusions in our crafting.
An item which features
embroidery designs or patterns for the clothing
and features will be both safe and
attractive.
To embroider the eyes or
mouth of a toy means to assure that there are
no small parts which will come off to do injury
to an infant.
Simple patterns are
available which will help you to make your
features in crewel embroidery patterns as well
as cross stitch design patterns or several
other methods, so that you may use whichever
method you feel most comfortable with to assure
the quality of your item.
Downloadable facial features
embroidery designs are free on many web sites
internet wide, having personally used some Ive
found them to be easy to accomplish and they
make toys that the little ones love for years
to come.
A sure way to make quality items from your
embroidered designs is to assure they are able
to withstand the rigors of childhood by using
tightly woven machine washable fabrics and
threads, which will stand up to the test of
time and play.
