Method number 2

In order to make a tulip from a cloth with your own hands, you will need:

• Wooden skewers or thick wire;
• Floral tape;
• Scissors;
• Synthetic winterizer;
• A flap of pink fabric for a bud;

Important! You can safely experiment and choose absolutely any color for your future flower, even the most unusual.

• Flap of green fabric for leaves.

If all the materials are prepared, you can begin to work:

• The first step is to build a pattern. For each flower you will need three petals for the bud and 2 leaves.
• Fold the pink cloth three times. Attach the finished template to it and transfer the pattern to the fabric. Cut out future petals.

Important! For greater convenience, the fabric can be secured with sewing pins during the process of transferring the pattern and cutting.

• The green fabric must be folded in half. Similarly, like the petals, cut out the leaves.

Important! If you want to make a whole bunch of flowers, you can make several patterns at once.

• Sew the leaves around the edge. Turn them on the front side and iron them well.
• Take 2 petals and sew them along one side.
• Attach the third petal to the first two.
• Turn the finished stock of the bud on the front side.
• Fill it with a padding polyester.

Important! In order for your tulip to exhale the smell of flowers, you can drop a few drops of perfume or other fragrance into the filler.

• To make the stem, you need to tightly wrap the skewer along the entire length with a floral tape. One end should be left free.
• Take your bud blank. Sew the non-stitched side with a sewn seam. Tighten a little.
• Insert the skewer into the hole and tighten the thread tightly.

Important! To fix it firmly, glue should be applied to the edge of the skewer.

• Wrap the tip of the leaf around the stem. Secure with thread.

That's all, your tulip is ready! Make a few more or simply decorate with ribbon. In any case, this gift will be the most extraordinary at the holiday.

Method number 3

We bring to your attention another version of a rather unusual and interesting flower. In order to sew a tulip from a fabric with your own hands in this way, you will need:

• Colored fabric for the bud;
• Green tissue flap;
• Threads in color;
• Needles;
• Sewing machine;
• Glue;
• Wooden skewer;
• Synthetic winterizer;
• Bead.

So, let's get to work. The sequence of actions is as follows:

• From a colored fabric, cut two squares of the same size.
• In one of the squares in the middle, cut a circle to make a hole.
• Sew the squares together and twist to the front.
• Fill the blank with padding polyester.
• Sew the hole inside the square around the circumference and tighten it tightly.
• We make a stalk. To do this, cut strips of equal skewer length and a width of about 1 centimeter from green cloth. Put glue on them, put the skewer inside and wrap it. Wait for a while until the glue sets.
• Apply glue to the end of the skewer and attach it to the bud.
• Similarly, as in the previous method, leaflets are cut out and stitched.

Important! If desired, the leaves can also be filled with a small layer of padding polyester.

• Fasten them with glue to the stalk.
• Sew a bead in the middle of the bud.

Method number 4

We offer you to sew Tilda tulips, which are so popular today among needlewomen. To make them you will need:

• Colored fabric for buds;

Important! The color of the future bud depends entirely on your taste preferences. But it is best to choose pink, yellow and white tones for such a flower.

• Green fabric for stems;
• Needle;
• Threads in color;
• Scissors;
• Material for stuffing, for example, synthetic winterizer or holofiber;
• Sewing machine.

Important! Try not to purchase knitted fabrics. Pay attention to fleece, satin or satin. They look most advantageous in this type of fabric tulips.

Let's get to work:

• Draw patterns on thick paper.
• Transfer the pattern to the fabric. For one tulip, you will need 2 teardrop-shaped details for the bud and leaf, 2 strips for the stem.
• Next - take the elements of your stalk and sew, leaving one side unbroken. Do the same with other blanks except leaflets. We flash them completely.

Important! When stapling, be sure to make allowances so that your tulip does not fall apart later.

• If desired, stitch the leaves around the perimeter with a sewing machine, so that the effect of streaks is obtained.
• Turn all the details of the flower to the front side.
• Fill the bud tightly with the filler.
• Fold the bottom edge of the bud, sew it around the circumference. Pull the thread.
• Insert the stem into the remaining hole, fix it and pull it with the thread until it stops. Lock her.
• Wrap a leaflet around the stalk and sew it.

That's all, your Tilda tulip is ready!

Important! In a single copy, it is better not to give it. Such flowers look most advantageous in a beautifully designed bouquet with the number of tulips 7-9 pieces.
