Mouse is a popular heroine of most Russian fairy tales, which is why it is very likely that you will have to sew a children's costume for yourself on a matinee in a kindergarten or in an elementary school. We will prompt a fairly simple way to cope with this task in a short time. So, the master class "The suit of the mouse".
For work you will need:
- gray sports suit;
- pink and gray felt;
- 2 pairs of gray socks;
- one long gray golf / stocking;
- sintepon as a filler;
- belt;
- double-sided scotch or thread with a needle.
- We'll start creating a mouse suit with our own hands from the ears. They are round in this rodent, so we cut out of felt first two gray circles about 15-18 cm in diameter and two pink circles with a diameter of 7 cm - they will become centers of the ears. Now the gray circles need to be shaped like a cone. To do this, we make an incision from one edge to the center of the circle and join the felt in an overlap. You can make a connection using threads, or you can use double-sided adhesive tape.
- Since to sew a suit of a mouse from scratch is not an easy task, we suggest to take as a basis a gray sports suit. It is desirable that he did not have any extra drawings, and the batik of the costume was with a hood. On this hood and attach ears. Again, you can take a thread with a needle, and you can try to fix them with a double-sided tape. Due to the conical shape, the ears will stand upright. After the ears are placed in their place in the middle of each paste a pink circle. If the sweater does not have a hood, you can use any gray hat, ribbon or elastic band.
- Now go to the tail. Since it is decided to make a mouse suit quickly with minimal effort, take the gray golf, stocking or panty hose for the basis of the tail. Cut off the bottom and sew the place of the cut. The result is a form that must be filled with a synthepon. You can sew the same tail of the fabric yourself. In the center of the full volumetric tail, we insert a wire so that the mouse tail can be given an interesting shape.
- The next point is fixing the tail. To do this, make two notches at the top of the structure, through which we pass the strap. The belt will be fastened to the waist of the child, and the patron will cover all the tricks, leaving only the tail itself peeping out.
- There were finishing touches. From the pink felt we cut out the oval and fix it in front on the jacket - now our mouse has a charming puziko. On the hands and feet, put on gray socks to get soft paws. On the face we draw a mustache and paint the nose with a dark color. The New Year costume of a mouse can be decorated with tinsel, and in the handle of a mouse it is possible to give a fake piece of cheese from cardboard or felt.
