Bright letters for the baby: the choice of fabrics

For the manufacture of letters it is better to use materials that will not be strewed. Felt is ideal for such purposes.

Do not use color to divide letters into vowels and consonants. After all, the concepts of soft, sonorous, deaf, hissing, and many other definitions are also applicable to these symbols. Let all the letters be multi-colored! The more shades, the brighter the alphabet will come from felt. Pattern Can be of different sizes, but it is desirable that it be placed on a sheet of A-4 format.

What will it take to work?

The main material that is needed in the work is felt. It can be of different thickness: from 1 to 5 mm. For a flat alphabet, it is desirable to use the most dense version available, for volumetric - soft thin felt. Pay attention to the quality of the fabric: the acrylic material creaks. There are also options with the addition of wool. If the baby has preconditions for allergic reactions, it is better not to use for making the alphabet felt.

For a volumetric alphabet, it is recommended to select symbols with rounded edges so that they do not have thin elements, otherwise it will be almost impossible to sew and fill them.

For a flat alphabet it is undesirable to select fonts with jags, since they will be constantly jammed, so it will be inconvenient to work with them.

We produce flat letters of felt

This is the easiest option. The letters are pinned to the felt, traced around the contour and cut out. You can make several identical products, they are useful when it comes to folding syllables and words, and in them the letters can be repeated.

There is another interesting variant of manufacturing flat letters. For a basis it is possible to take a dense felt, on a top part to use more soft material. When preparing patterns, you need to make one preform font of the desired size, and the second font is the same, but 2 sizes smaller.

The main letters will be multi-colored, and those that are smaller - in one color. Then, using a silicone gun, smaller letters should be glued on larger ones. At the edges we leave an equal distance. In such letters as "A", "O", the inner part of the upper and lower letters is compared.

There is another original and rather simple option. Using Patterns of the letters of the Russian alphabet, you can very quickly make a whole set of duplicates.

Volumetric letters of felt

To sew a volumetric Russian alphabet, the pattern must be large. On the lateral seams will leave about 2 mm, after packing the letter will get volume and will look less.

It is necessary to cut out two identical parts of each letter, for this the pattern is pinned and wound. It does not matter which side of the felt to traverse a pattern, there is no face or underside in the fabric. In letters with holes, the first thing to do is to perform internal seams, and then move to the edges. You need to fill the letters gradually, filling the sewn places. After the letter is sewn, you need to fix the knot, and remove the needle from the other side of the product and cut the thread there, then the knot will not be visible.
