Chicken Egg Warmer

Accidentally made this chicken for Easter since I found the tutorial which was easy even for me :) It's so cute :)

Внезапно сшила такого цыпленка, т.к. нашла туториал легкий даже для меня :) По-моему, получилось мило :)


Read about my comments and modifications below.

Оригинальное описание / туториал -> тут
Мои комментарии и изменения описаны ниже.

1. Materials: vintage cotton fabric (can I say "antic" for fabric from 50th? :) ), felt, iron-on interfacing.

Материалы: винтажная хлопковая ткань (можно ли назвать "антик" ткать из 50х? :) ), фетр, клеевой флизелин (?)
2. Pattern says "Seam allowance is included with these templates" but I recommend to add 1/4" (0.5 cm) extra for seam allowance (since completed egg warmer turned out too small for large eggs).
Put interfacing on the wrong sides of body pieces. 
I made beak and cockscomb from felt and sewed them on right side, so I made them smaller then mentioned in the pattern (seam allowance is not needed). 

В оригинальном описании указано, что припуски на швы уже включены в выкройку, но я рекомендую добавить еше 0,5 см припук на шов, т.к. цыпленок получается маловат для крупных яиц.
Я делала клюв и гребень из фетра со швом по лицевой стороне, поэтому я уменьшила из на величину припуска на шов. 


3. Sew all parts together.
Сшиваем все части вместе.


4. Fold lower part of the body inside.
Завернуть нижнюю часть внутрь.


5. Done :) Ooops, I forgot about the eyes...
Готово :) ой, забыла про глаза...


6. Modeled picture :))))
