Original gift for the eighth of March

International Women's Day is approaching and there is not much time left for the purchase of unique gifts! Moms, grandmothers, teachers, friends or just work colleagues should not be "victims" of indifference on this day. It is better to prepare for the upcoming congratulations in advance so as not to forget or lose sight of. And to please all the women of your environment on March 8, you can also give gifts of your own production. It is not only profitable, but also exciting.
You can make a gift with your own hands in just one day. Such a soft eight will look very original and symbolic.
Both relatives and colleagues will positively perceive such an unusual present, and for its production you will need a minimum amount of materials:
• "cheerful" chintz fabric (preferably polka dots);
• green fabric of any texture;
• synthetic winterizer;
• yarn for knitting yellow;
• threads and a needle;
• universal polymer glue.
First, draw a number on a piece of paper.
Then cut out the shape without cutting it inside. Next, we draw this whole sketch along the contour on a fabric folded in half and cut it out (only the edges of the base should be fixed with needles so that the second side does not move when cutting).
Be sure to leave a seam allowance!
Two blanks (located face-down) are sewn along the outlined line between each other with a reverse stitch. From the bottom, leave a small slot to turn the product and fill it with padding polyester.
Now is the time to tackle the outlines. The cut out paper parts are placed on the fabric prototype of the eight and carefully point out the places of “cutting”.
We cut the inner region in half horizontally and vertically, obtaining 4 triangles from the whole figure (identical in pairs).
Two triangles (one on the back wall, the other on the front) are folded inwards and sew the zone of "merging" of the sides.
So we gradually move towards the center, until we completely cover the whole hole. Now you need to fill the finished "compartment" with a padding polyester.
We process the lower circle in the same way, after which we stuff it with syntepon.
Sew the slot along the edge and proceed to the decor.
From green fabric we cut 10-12 leaves (in shape they should look like a dandelion leaf).
Then glue the foliage on the figure with polymer glue.
From yellow yarn we cut 30-40 strips of 5-7 cm each and tightly bandage them in the center.
The bundled bundle is re-folded and wrapped with thread again.
In such a simple way you can get completely natural dandelions.
We glue the flowers on the foliage and give them time to dry.
When the glue hardens completely, a soft souvenir can be placed vertically.
This gift looks very interesting, and rich and vibrant colors create a truly spring mood.
