- - skin flap;
- - sewing machine;
- - synthetic winterizer;
- - wire;
- - eye buttons.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a bright yellow or orange fabric with black stripes for the skin of your tiger cub. Cut out two parts of the head, abdomen and torso. Then complete the four ear pieces, the muzzle patch, the middle head insert, as well as the lower lip and its edge separately. Don't forget to make a tail out of the fabric.
Step 2
Cut a tongue out of a red fabric for the tiger cub. Measure the cuts of the legs and, based on the data obtained, draw the pattern of the sole. Cut out four soles from a patch of artificial or natural leather. Make four liners for them from cardboard. Use flexible wire to construct the frame of the tiger cub's body, including the legs and tail.
Step 3
Fold in pairs, and then sew the ear pieces, cutting off the allowances at the corners. Turn it out. Fold the corners of the base of the ear together and secure with a couple of stitches. Do the same with the second ear. Then pin both to the head. Also sew the forehead to them, making bartacks in the places where the ears are sewn. Turn your head out, fill it with padding polyester.
Step 4
Sew the tongue and lip edge together. Attach the second half of the lip to the resulting detail, and then twist them. With a seam "over the edge", collect the patch on the muzzle, pull the thread slightly. Sew the patch to the front of the head with a blind stitch. Attach the lower lip in the same way.
Step 5
Sew the parts of the abdomen and stitch to the sides of the body, leaving the cuts of the legs open. Sew the torso along the neck, back, chest, without sewing the upper cut. Stitch leather soles to your feet. After turning the torso inside out, insert the sole parts cut from cardboard. Insert the wire frame into the legs and tail. Fill the torso with padding polyester and only then sew up the hole in the abdomen.
Step 6
Join the head and tail to the body with a blind stitch. Sew on or glue on the eye buttons. The wire frame will allow you to change the position of the body and the shape of the tail and legs of the tiger cub.
