suwari1_sm縮緬の座り人形袋を作りました。

まずは顔。

I made another chirimen craft bag, “Sitting child”.

First I worked for the face.

then the body

suwari3_sm外底と胴体の間に飾り布をつけ

sewed a decoration fabric on between the body and the outer sole

suwari4_sm外底を縫い付け

place and sewed the outer sole on the bottom

suwari5_sm内底を貼付けました。

これで内も外も縫い代の見えない綺麗な状態です。

then glue the inner sole on the inside bottom.

In this way, this became seamless both inside and outside.

Putting hands, face, and strings then completed.

Cute and small sitting-girl bag.

It doesn’t look like a sitting-child but is called so 😛
