DIY fabric panel
Here's how it turns out. Looking at him, you can assume that these two women recently came from a bathhouse, in which it is so pleasant to bask in the winter cold, boiled a samovar to drink aromatic tea. To recreate this art, you will need:
- the picture "Tea Party" printed on the printer;
- simple pencil;
- scissors;

- lace sewing for tablecloths.
Print the picture on a printer. Secure with tape on the window pane, attach gabardine stretch or other finely woven fabric on top, Translate the outlines of the future masterpiece.
Now look at what pieces of fabric are lying around in your household. Let's start with a samovar, for it it is better to take a shiny one or with such inclusions. Also, on the window, transfer the outlines of this object, first to the pattern, and then to the fabric, cut it out.
Using an iron, glue a cobweb to this part, attach the samovar with this side to the base of the canvas.
Cut out the outlines of the teapot from the floral fabric, also glue it on the spider web, cut off the excess, attach this detail to your fabric picture.
Close the junction of the two items with a piece cut from the same fabric as the samovar.
Cut out the boots of the heroine, which is on the right, from the dark fabric.
Also outline the detail of the skirt on the window, use a spider web to secure it to the fabric panel. With your own hands, gently press these parts against the base so that they fit well.
You will attach the rest of the artwork in the same way. After that, they must be sewn on a sewing machine in a small zigzag, then the edges will be neatly decorated, and the picture will have a finished look.
Do not forget to cut out a tablecloth from openwork sewing, embroider with a line the pairs coming out of the samovar, the facial features of a cat and women. Use an artificial pebble as earrings for one of the ladies by gluing it. After that, the production of the panel is completed, you can frame it, hang it on the wall.
If you liked creating from the remnants of fabric, do not stop there, create the following paintings, which are made in an unusual way.
Crafts using the kinusaiga technique with your own hands
This art originated in Japan. Masters who perform paintings in this technique create like painted canvases. And the Japanese professor Maeno Takashi came up with this method of making the panel. Not only paintings are made using the kinusaiga technique, but also toys. The dolls trimmed according to this principle are called kimekomi-ningyo.
The uniqueness of this canvas is that it is created without using a needle. Let's start with a simple example, for which you need the following:
- foam sheet;
- cardboard;
- glue;
- Styrofoam ceiling plinth;
- pieces of fabric;
- scissors;
- glue for PVC;
- stationery knife;
- nail file;
- drawing template;
- pencil.
If the image consists of several elements, cut them out on the basis of the template separately, attach to the fabric. Draw on it, cut out these blanks with 1 cm allowances.
Glue the Styrofoam sheets onto the cardboard, scratch the lines of the drawing with a small stationery knife. Take the first piece of fabric, apply a small amount of glue to the back side, apply to the foam base, tuck the edges into the slots with a file. It is necessary to smooth the fabric well so that the elements do not have bubbles and wrinkles.
It is convenient to fill the fragments of the picture in the slot with a nail file, but it is better to first sharpen the tip of this tool, then process it with fine sandpaper. When this stage of work is completed, assemble the frame in the corners from the foam ceiling skirting boards. Tuck the cut out rectangles of fabric under it, then frame the picture. First, on the back side, you need to glue a rectangle of fabric onto a piece of cardboard to close it.
Glue the eyelet, hang the picture on the wall.
This is how the kinusaiga technique helped to make a beautiful fabric panel. Once you have mastered this simple example, you can move on to a more complex one.
In order for such sunflowers to appear on the canvas, you need to take:
- thin foam;
- scissors;
- large photo frame;
- trimming fabrics;
- picture template;
- stationery knife;
- a nail file.
Disassemble the photo frame, remove the cardboard from it, use the ceiling panel glue to attach a sheet of foam plastic to it, cut off any excess. Turn the blank over so that the cardboard is on top, put a weighting material here, for example, a large book. After 2 hours the frame can be used.
Bring the sunflower image onto the paper using glue stick, stick it onto the styrofoam. Let dry for half an hour, then carefully cut along the outline with a knife.
Now you can start decorating your still life. First, cut out the largest parts from the fabric, in this case, this is the core of the flowers.
To be able to tuck in the edges in the slots, leave a 3 mm allowance on all sides.
Now cut out the sunflower petals. For this Japanese patchwork to help make a wonderful picture, it is better to use fragments of the same color scheme, but in different shades. Therefore, take a light and dark yellow fabric. Also act when decorating the leaves using a green canvas of different shades. Place the resulting creation in a frame, secure it.
If you will create more complex works using the kinusaiga technique, taking many fragments of different colors, then they need to be numbered. Mark the template and cut out parts.
Successfully completing these beginner workshops will help you master more challenging work.
But immediately you need to warn, it requires patience. But what a result! And you can create a canvas only when you have free time, for example, during the long New Year's holidays.
For work you will need:
- velvet stretch in various shades;
- multi-colored pieces of silk;
- aerosol glue;
- self-adhesive double-sided film;
- foam board;
- glue "Titan";
- Fiberboard;
- knife;
- scissors;
- nail file;
- fabric paints;
- foam board.
The size of the base of the canvas is 57 by 43 cm. Take fiberboard and foam board 0.5 cm thick, cut out of them along the sheet, which correspond to the size of the picture. With a 6 mm distance from the edges, apply Titanium Wild glue to the foam. Leave it for 2 minutes to thicken a little, then put it on top of the foam board, install a press on it. Let the glue dry completely. Print out the outlines of the future drawing on a sheet of paper.
You will most likely need two sheets. Set aside 4 cm on all sides for the frame, glue the sketch to the base using spray glue. Using a designer or utility knife, cut the cut along the outlined lines.
When making slots, hold the tool perpendicular to the surface, without tilting it in one direction or the other. If you have fabric dyes, then you can create the hues you want using them.
In this work, all the details of the fabric panel are created of silk, except for the trunks and branches of trees, they are made of velvet. Start decorating your creation from the treetops. To create small details, you will need a second template, you will apply fabrics to it, outline. You can cut them out of paper, number them, then cut them out of fabric.
After removing the template, thread the first part into the slots so that its edges are not visible and completely enter there.
When using fabrics, choose colors to create a natural shade. The sky should be slightly visible through the crown of leaves. Therefore, when making the crown, use a little blue fabric.
Adopting a Japanese patchwork, you can achieve an even more interesting effect if you apply the technique of double overlapping patches. The upper canvas should be translucent so that the lower one shines through.
If the top of the foliage of autumn trees has a yellow, red, brown tint, the bottom may be greenish.
Take pieces of beige, red and brown velvet, and decorate the trunks and branches of trees with them.
Using a brush and a hair dryer, remove the threads, villi, after which you can hang the picture, which the kinusayga technique helped to create. The master class highlighted the stages of creation.
Patchwork - painting ideas
Using this technique, you can make a wide variety of canvases with strict geometric patterns, bring a household plot here, perform a still life and much more.

- As you can see, the base of the canvas is made up of triangles. To cut them out of fabric, you will need templates. Make the edge triangles from a 14 cm square by cutting it diagonally twice. For triangles that are in the corners, use the same technique, cut from a 7cm square.
- Let's start with the first flower. Attaching tracing paper or a transparent sheet of paper to the presented diagram, cut out its elements. Transfer them to the fabric, cut with a seam allowance, and stitch.
- Adhering to the scheme, first collect the components of the panel, then these fragments, sewn on a typewriter.
- Place a synthetic winterizer under the resulting fabric picture. Cover it with a sheet of linen, sew in the squares to join the three layers by quilting them.
- The edges of the product are finished with stripes of yellow and red fabric.
You can sew the shreds as in this case using a sewing machine. Sometimes craftswomen connect small parts like this, and then the resulting large ones are applied to the base, stitched here with an oblique inlay.
If there is no typewriter, this should not stop those who want to create beautiful things, connect the panel elements using decorative types of seams.
Beginners will be able to do easy patchwork using simple geometric shapes and patterns.
