It is worth taking care of the availability of the following materials in advance:

  • lace;
  • buttons;
  • a piece of fabric (linen and cotton);
  • black beads;
  • synthetic fluff;
  • PVA glue and transparent Moment glue;
  • bast, tow, foam plastic;
  • wooden skewers;
  • tin can with a diameter of 8 mm;
  • twine;
  • expanded clay;
  • threads.

Prepare a jar for work, a jar from corn, peas or something similar can be suitable. Cut a circle out of cardboard, it should be slightly wider than the diameter of the jar, then glue it with fabric using PVA glue.

The circle will be the bottom of the jar. Master class: DIY textile chickens

Now we make a pattern for the chicken, first transfer it to a sheet of paper, and cut it out. Master class: DIY textile chickensNow you can transfer each detail of the chicken onto the fabric. Master class: DIY textile chickensAs a result, we get carcasses - 2 parts, wings made of contrasting fabric - four parts.

We cut out all the details from the fabric, leaving allowances for the seams. We sew the details, leaving an opening through which we will later stuff the product with synthetic fluff. We make small cuts on the seams, not reaching the line, so the product will look neater.

We turn each product inside out and stuff it with synthetic fluff, the hole should be sewn up manually with a blind stitch. On the tail and wings we make a relief with stitches.Master class: DIY textile chickens

We take the lace, we will need two strips, one to decorate the chicken's neck, and with the second strip we go along the bottom of the chicken, sewing it along the entire axis.Master class: DIY textile chickens

The wings are also stitched, turned inside out and stuffed with synthetic fluff, but not too tightly. The wings are attached to the body using buttons, sewing the button to the body together with the wing. Separately sew the comb and beak with small stitches.Master class: DIY textile chickens

Now take a skewer, the length of which is 15 cm, coat it well with Moment glue. Stick the skewer into the carcass, at the very bottom, the glue should stick well.Master class: DIY textile chickens

Now we take the jar and put a piece of foam plastic directly on the bottom. Master class: DIY textile chickensThe outside of the jar needs to be decorated with ropes, twine and bast, gluing them to the fabric. Master class: DIY textile chickensWe have a chicken on a skewer, so we stick it into the foam plastic, which is at the bottom of the jar, having previously dipped the tip of the skewer in glue. This way, the skewer will firmly fix the chicken on the jar, everything should dry.
