Felt toys are so warm and pleasant, cute and beautiful. They are simple in execution, but how much joy they bring to others.

Fun miniature toys are made from this soft-touch material. They can decorate a Christmas tree for the New Year, make a garland, a bouquet of flowers, or simply sew wonderful animals and dolls.

New 2016 is the year of the monkey, so I propose to sew a beautiful monkey out of felt with my own hands, as a symbol of the coming year.

To make a monkey we need:

  • brown and cream felt
  • brown and pink threads
  • scissors
  • simple pencil
  • black beads for eyes
  • holofiber
  • glue Moment
  • pink blush

Do-it-yourself felt monkey - pattern and master class:

Before we directly start sewing a monkey from felt, we need to print a pattern with the details of a monkey.

We redraw all the details from the pattern onto felt in the required amount of the desired color and cut it out with scissors.


Next, take all the details necessary for tailoring the head.


On the brown circle we impose a cream-colored circle.


On top of the two parts we place the muzzle.


We sew all the details together with overcasting stitches and at the end of sewing we leave a small hole for stuffing.


We fill the head with holofiber and sew the hole with the same overcast stitches.


Next, we overcast the inside of the muzzle.


Just as in the case of stitching the head, we proceed with the ears of the monkey. We put a light one on a brown ear and a brown arc over it. We sew along the arcuate part with an overcast stitch.


We stuff the ear with holofiber.


Sweep the inside of the ear.


We sew the ear along the bottom seam and form a shell.


We sew together the details of the arms and legs.


We fill the arms and legs with holofiber.


Now let's start assembling the body. To do this, we begin to sew the torso, then insert one handle, sewing it on and continue to sew the torso to the place where the legs will be located.


We insert the legs and also sew them with overcasting stitches.


Next, we sew the body, sew the second handle and finish sewing by securing the thread.


We fill the body with holofiber.
We sweep the belly in a circle.


We sew the ears to the head, and sew the head to the body with hidden stitches.


We overcast the tail along the entire length and also sew it to the body.


We decorate the face of the monkey from felt, for this we sew on eyes from black beads, cut out a small nose and a forelock from brown felt, glue them on Moment glue. Embroider the mouth and navel with pink thread.


Powder pink blush on the cheeks and a little belly.

Preface to work.
New Year's toy is one of the symbols of the holiday and has its own extremely interesting history. Even at the end of the Middle Ages, residents of European countries began to decorate their homes for the New Year. Until the middle of the 18th century, decorations were exclusively edible. These are apples (today they are balls), nuts, all kinds of sweets and fruits. Since the second half of the 18th century, Christmas decorations have become more ornate: paper flowers, gilded fir cones and empty eggshells, as well as hammered brass figurines - fairies, angels, etc.
In 1848, the first Christmas balls were made in the town of Lausch in Thuringia. Every year, more and more new types of “design”, as they would say today, Christmas balls were invented. And in 67, a gas plant was opened in Lausche. Using gas burners with very high temperature flames, glassblowers were able to produce thin-walled balls of any size. Craftsmen could blow almost anything: not only balloons, but also bunches of grapes, birds, fish, figurines of Santa Claus, jugs and amphoras. The toys were painted with silver and gold dust.
In Russia, as you know, the custom of celebrating the New Year on the night of December 31 to January 1 was introduced by Peter the Great, and he also ordered that the spruce should become the main New Year tree. The most favorite toys for many years were, again, edible products - shortcrust pastry figures that were wrapped in colored, gold or silver foil, as well as gilded nuts, apples and, of course, candles. Many toys were made by hand from improvised materials.
Since the early 2000s, original, "homemade" toys have become popular. Figures made of straw, paper, hanks of wool and pieces of cloth; plush animals, felt swans and angels.
In this master class, we will make a New Year's toy - a monkey, a symbol of 2016.

We need tools and materials to work
Thick brown felt for a monkey
Thin red and beige felt for overlays for the muzzle, belly, ears, legs and arms.
Pencil for transferring a drawing to cardboard
Pen sign pattern details
Cardboard, office paper for making monkey patterns
Scissors for cutting out toy parts
Product sketch or photo from the Internet
A piece of synthetic winterizer for laying in the head and torso of the monkey
Glue gun for gluing decorations and monkey handles
Cotton threads in three colors: beige, black and brown.
Manual needle for sewing monkey pattern details
2 small black beads for the eye, 4 mm in size
Soap for outlining the details of the monkey pattern



Safety precautions when working with hand needles and pins
1. Make sure that there are no rusty and bent needles and pins.
2. Sew with a thimble.
3. Do not take needles and pins in your mouth, do not stick into clothes.
4. Do not leave needles and pins on the working surface of the table.
5 . At the end of the work, remove all needles and pins in special boxes and pads.

Safety precautions when working with scissors
1. Scissors must be well adjusted and sharpened.
2. Store scissors in a specific place (box or stand).
3. When using scissors, be as careful and disciplined as possible.
4. When passing scissors, hold them by closed blades.
5. Put the scissors to the right with closed blades pointing away from you.
6. When cutting, the narrow blade of the scissors should be at the bottom.

Glue Gun Safety
1. When warming up the gun, be sure to place a ceramic, glass stand or saucer under the nozzle so that the glue does not drip onto the table.
2. Well, if the table has a smooth surface, and if not, it will be difficult to scrape off the glue, even a drop;
3. The pistol has a stand, which is usually removed during operation, and when the pistol is placed, it is extended.
4. Make sure that when you place the gun on the table, the stand is extended. Otherwise, the gun will stick its nozzle into a stand or a wooden table and may burn through both or damage;
5. Do not grab the nozzle or hot glue with your hands. The temperature of the nozzle and glue at its exit from the nozzle, 200 degrees. A burn to you will be provided, even if you just touched the nozzle or glue. Especially to glue, since it (glue) will remain cool on your fingers;
6. Do not forget to turn off the gun from the mains, after work and even during work, so that the glue gun does not overheat.

It's already the end of October, and we can already say that we are entering the finish line at the end of 2015 and the long-awaited 2016 year of the monkey. The fluffy and airy sheep, the symbol of 2015, which she was, is being replaced by a cheerful and funny monkey. The year promises us many good changes that will be easy, fun, like the life of a funny monkey. No matter how difficult it is to finish the year, you still need to gather your courage and meet the next year with all honors. The New Year is always a new branch, which you need to cross with ease with new thoughts, dreams and desires. St. Nicholas Day, New Year, Christmas and Kutia are the most magical holidays of the year, so you need to prepare for magic accordingly. What is a holiday without a Christmas tree? Her presence in the house is simply necessary, it is especially desirable that she be real with her own forest and natural smell. Throughout the house we hang beautiful garlands, brilliant rain, New Year's figurines, and hang beautiful balls on the Christmas tree. And, of course, it is customary from year to year to hang a ball or figurine on the Christmas tree, on which there will be an animal of the next year. So on the Christmas tree in 2016, a monkey must hang. You can buy something with this funny animal in the store, or you can be a little unique and sew funny felt monkeys on your own and decorate your Christmas tree, or congratulate your family and friends with such an interesting present.

I glue the details of the tail together and sew them along the contour with an overcast seam with a brown floss thread in two additions.

I cut out 1 part of the body from the padding polyester and glue it to one of the similar felt parts. I glue the tail on top of the padding polyester, and then the second part of the torso made of felt.

With a brown floss thread in two additions, I sew the parts of the body with an overcast seam, tucking the edges of the synthetic winterizer part inside the felt crafts.

To create additional volume, as the toy is sewn together, I fill the lower and upper legs of the Monkey with scraps of padding polyester using a bamboo skewer.

To the detail of the muzzle I glue the detail of the fur on the head of the Monkey.

From the wrong side, the finished part of the front of the Monkey's head looks like this:

In the place where the detail of the fur on the head of the Monkey fits to the muzzle, I overcast it along the contour with a brown floss thread.

I cut out 1 part of the head from the synthetic winterizer and glue it to the wrong side of the front side of the Monkey's head.

I glue the detail of the nose in the same way as the details of the heels.

I embroider a mouth with a brown floss thread in four additions
