- attach to the Russians folk traditions through acquaintance with spin dolls;
- to cultivate love for folk culture, reverence and respect for folk traditions;
- to inculcate the skills of work culture and accuracy;
- develop a caring attitude towards the objects of their work.

Today there is an acute problem of conservation and careful attitude to popular culture. And we must strive to ensure that the younger generation knows the traditions and customs of the Russian people, the history folk culture, could be imbued with a sense of understanding of its antiquity and greatness, in order to join its origins. The source of such a heritage for our children can be a traditional folk doll, which has been undeservedly forgotten.
Rag dolls originated from ritual figurines associated with the veneration of a female deity, fertility cults, ancestors and the hearth. To stuff a rag doll, they used ash, grain, linen tow, and rags. The stable signs of rag dolls were passed down from generation to generation: a simple design, pronounced female signs(breast, long braid), facelessness. A doll without a face was considered inaccessible to the installation of evil forces into it. An important detail of the doll was the chest - a reminder of its connection with the cult of fertility and motherhood. The doll became a talisman. Masters created dolls for their families. Toys not only entertained the child, but also introduced him to everyday peasant labor.
By creating a toy on their own, the children learned how to work with different tools, acquiring skills and giving free rein to their imagination. playing with homemade dolls, girls learned to spin, sew, embroider. Dolls were taken care of, passed on by inheritance. Thanks to a rag doll, a child from the most early years learned the meaning of a woman-mother, her function to give life, to feed, to educate in strict love, to pass on traditions. The image of the doll was real and recognizable. It reflected typical characters, professional interests. So respect for the way of life of the family, interest in culture was brought up. The doll was considered the best gift.
Making a doll itself has a healing effect - it helps to relax the soul, feel the joy of the beauty that is born in your hands. Our great-grandmothers knew how to make dolls that bring good luck to the house, comfort babies, and exorcise diseases.
Doing traditional dolls, we are immersed in the mysterious world of our ancestors, in women's secrets- secrets of motherhood. It turns out that in this unpretentious lesson, you can discover such depths that you don’t even suspect, secrets that have come down to us from the depths of centuries.

Charm for happy motherhood, presented in the form of a doll with babies.
The amulet in the form of a woman with a baby in her arms was considered very strong and was always given with the wishes of well-being, peace in the family and in the soul, a calm, joyful and confident existence. It symbolized a woman who got married and had children. And the ability to give birth was especially significant for our ancestors. The joy of being a mother reflected that everything was fine with such a woman. The doll was created when they wanted or were already waiting for the baby to appear. They also gave it to the wedding with wishes healthy children, at birth new family, especially honored guests, when they wanted to show respect.
This doll, which has come down to our days from the depths of centuries, is a wonderful example folk art educating and thought provoking.

Let's cook necessary materials and tools.

To get the job done, we need:
- coarse cotton fabric;
- pieces of multi-colored and colored fabric;
- canvas;
- lace:
- red floss threads;
- scissors;
- synthetic winterizer;
- needle.
We do a twist. To do this, take a piece cotton fabric size 30/38, fold the fabric in half.

Tightly and evenly twist the column. The height of the column will be = 15 cm. We tie the column with red threads along the entire height.

We round the head a little with a padding polyester, we denote the neck with threads.

We take a square of cotton rough fabric measuring 20/20 cm

We put a square of plain fabric on the head.

We fix with a red thread along the neck line.

Now we make hands. Tighten the corner by 1-1.5 cm.

Fold the edges towards the middle.

At a distance of 1 cm from the edge, we make the palm of the doll and pull the fabric with a thread.

There is no need to cut the threads after tying.

We tie it tightly with a thread at the place of the doll's waist.

Let's make a skirt. Take a piece of colored fabric measuring 12/30 and make a line and a small assembly along the upper cut.

We wrap the doll with a patchwork skirt front side inside.

We tie tightly with a thread along the waist line.

Turn right side out, flatten.

We take a piece of canvas, make an apron out of it, pulling the threads along the edge.

We will embroider a simple pattern on the apron, but you can not do it.

We fix the apron. We place it in the middle of the skirt, face inward, drag it along the waistline.

Moral education is one of the sections of all educational programs. Both in kindergartens and schools, they study in detail the country in which you live and your city. Special meaning acquires the education of patriotic feelings: love to native land, Motherland. Everyone should know the history, sights of their region. Interesting to know about the peoples of your city about culture, about folk costumes. It is boring to tell children from illustrations, it is much more interesting when the information is supported by exhibits that you can pick up, consider in more detail. And when the office is decorated in a variety of ways, this is a plus for the teacher. Some will think that this is difficult, because not everyone has a sewing machine, but I assure you, to make a wonderful the costume is possible without a machine, the main thing is to have a great desire and patience and, of course, creative imagination (how are we without him). I propose detailed technique fulfillment dolls in a festive Russian folk costume from simple, improvised materials without using sewing machine.

Materials used:

Textile: red satin, white nylon or any white material

Decorative braid, jacquard,

thread, needle,

Wire,

Meter, pencil, scissors, glue gun.

In kindergarten I took doll, washed it, combed it - and I got this gorgeous:

Then she set about implementing her plan. Since I don't have a sewing machine, I sewed everything by hand. If something is wrong, do not judge strictly.

Our folk costume will consist of a bottom white shirt with trim, shorts, a top red dress (sundress) and kokoshnik.

I took the idea of \u200b\u200ba pattern for a blouse Houses: I have two girls and naturally they have dolls, took one of the blouses and embroidered it (then sewed it back until my girls saw it, otherwise it would have been a global tragedy, made a paper pattern to fit my dolls, then transferred it to the material. Here's a detail.

To prevent the pattern from moving, we fix it with needles and circle it.

We translate the pattern on the right, then turn over and circle left side. Cut out the detail. The clasp will be on the back. Trying on doll. I think it turned out well. One piece, stitched only side seams, but we will sew later when we make the sleeves.

In the decoration of the collar, I used red braid (it’s good that now there are no problems with the choice of this material, I bought what I liked) I just sewed it in a circle, and I got a stand-up collar.

Just like on a shirt, we sew a braid on the sleeves, having previously taken measurements from the hand dolls:

I describe my actions in detail, maybe it will be useful to someone given material. Let's go further: we sew the sleeves into the shirt and sew it (shirt) and sleeves, can be tried on doll. I didn’t make a fastener on a shirt, I just wrapped it up and that’s it, a sundress will not let her unbutton. This is such a beauty...

We turn to sewing the sundress itself. We measure growth dolls and cut off the rectangle, taking into account future folds on the sundress.

Choose a color scheme for jewelry. I chose jacquard and decorative ribbons as it is easier for me because they can be glued discreetly with hot glue. We put ribbons and ribbons on the material, we get to work. At the beginning, I put the ribbons on glue (pointwise, but I didn’t take a photo so that they would not go over the material, then I sewed it on.

We sew the part, but not completely, leaving room for the future fastener.

We adjust the length along the top, since the bottom is already finished. We make the necessary assemblies according to the figure. We have a sundress, so we sew a belt and straps to the top of the skirt, you can try it on. For the belt and straps I used the same braid as on the sundress itself. We sew the fastener after trying on the sundress. I used a button as a fastener, you can sew Velcro, even, probably, it will turn out even better (I think so). Here's a sundress I got.

Smoothly, we have reached the last product - the kokoshnik.

Here we need imagination, we take the wire as a basis, but not very thick, so that the kokoshnik is flexible. We measure the head dolls and twist this frame.

In order for the kokoshnik to keep its shape, you need to cover it with something durable. Atlas - the material is easily wrinkled, I did not want to stick it on cardboard. The idea was suggested to me by a colleague, I share it with you: every housewife, for sure, has gelatin at home, we dilute it and soak the material in it (I took sheet gelatin, it is easier to use, dissolved two plates in a small amount of water, and then dry it on a flat surface., it turns out just fine. Firstly , the material became almost like cardboard, secondly, it stopped blooming at the edges, and, thirdly, it cut out just wonderfully!

When the material is ready, we move on to the next phase of our work: using hot glue, we fix our frame on the material.

WITH reverse side we do everything in the same way, but we cut out a little more of our kokoshnik to make it easier and more inconspicuous to stick the decor in a circle.

For decoration, I used sequins. When decorating, we give free rein to imagination and get this beauty:

Our kokoshnik is ready, you can dress up the beauty.

I forgot about the main thing, underwear is being made Just: make a pattern according to doll, cut and sew on the sides and middle (unfortunately, I didn’t take a photo, it can be made from white baby sock, it’s even easier, only the middle is stitched, I think you will figure it out yourself.

Main point: we dress up our beauty and get a lot of pleasure from the work done! I think it turned out even better, not worse dolls bought in the store.

All success and creative ideas in your projects!

A hand-made toy served for our ancestors as a kind of tribal ethnic code that indicated the landmarks of the life path. The doll played a mysterious role associated with the concepts of life and death. Therefore, the doll was always created with great care, there could be no accidents in its image - there was a certain meaning in everything. Having examined with you the anatomy of a rag doll, we saw how a chain of hidden symbols appears in it, characteristic of the mythological consciousness of the peasant, for Russian folk culture. Usually, rag dolls were the simplest image female figure in everyday or festive peasant attire made of scraps of fabric.

The outfit, like the fundamental principle of the doll, has deep spiritual roots. Long since different peoples clothing not only protected from bad weather, an elegant costume was also an obligatory part of the holiday.

Korzukhin Alexey. Hen-party. 1889

Clothing could tell a lot about the person who wore it: where he comes from, what age and class, what he does, whether he is married or not. The soul of the people and their ideas of beauty found expression in clothes.

Photo of the beginning XX century.

What do you think, our modern clothes can tell something about us? If not, why not? Is this possible in our time? If necessary?

Despite the variety of women's outfits, they have some common features. General feature Russian women's costume was not to emphasize the shape of the body. The simplicity of the silhouette was compensated by the rich color scheme of various parts of the clothing, trim, all kinds of embroideries and appliqués. The most ancient and stable forms of Russian clothing have been entrenched in the traditional Russian doll.

Dolls in national costumes

Therefore, first it is necessary to say a few words about the Russian costume. Folk costume is a complex and archaic phenomenon. Its main parts have evolved over the centuries. From time immemorial, from fathers to sons, from grandfathers to grandchildren, it was passed along with rooted beliefs and traditions. Even the active familiarization of the ruling elite and urban residents of Russia with Western clothing in the 18th century did not affect the bulk of the population. The beginning of the 18th century in Russia was marked by the reforms of Peter I, which were prepared by gradually accumulated socio-economic changes. The reforms affected almost all spheres of society: church, economy, administrative apparatus, army, navy, culture. The content of the reforms in the most general sense were two critical moments: a decisive shift from the Middle Ages to the New Age and the Europeanization of all areas of life. For more information about the reform of Peter the Great "On the abolition of the old-fashioned Russian dress", see here http://www.7r2008.ru/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=384:vovseh&catid=45:po&Itemid=59The Russian village until the end of the 19th century remained the bearer of traditional culture. Even at the beginning of the 20th century, the peasant costume remained truly folk.

The folk costume was created taking into account the fact that it should not hinder human movements. He protected in heat and cold, was comfortable in any weather conditions. The design of the costume often did not require the use of scissors and great skill from the seamstress, since when making the fabric, the peasant woman counted it on a specific type of clothing. Outerwear they did not fasten with buttons, but girdled with a sash.

This was done on purpose so that any member of the family could wear it. The wide wrap of clothing served as a pocket. The floors of women's clothing were sewn so wide that a child could be wrapped in them. Russian men's suit, widespread everywhere, consisted of a shirt-shirt, ports, a belt, shoes and a headdress (usually it was a sinner's hat).

The men's shirt was always girdled. The shirt was the main type of clothing that a person wore from birth to death. Often boys and girls back in the 19th century. before the wedding they went in the same shirts, intercepted by a belt.

From the book "Three Kingdoms - copper, silver and gold." Hood. Gorbarukov

The word “shirt” itself comes from the root “rub” - a piece of fabric, because the word “hack” once also had the meaning of “cut”. A rectangular piece of fabric was folded in half, a hole for the head was cut out and fastened with a belt, later the back and front of the shirt were sewn together and sleeves were added.

In ancient times, the father's shirt served as the first diaper for the son, and the mother's shirt for the daughter. She served as a talisman, protection from evil forces. For the same reason, shirts for boys and girls were sewn not from new linen, but from old clothes parents. It was impossible to sell one’s shirt, it was believed that along with the shirt you would sell your happiness, which is why people who are ready to give (donate) the last shirt have always been so valued.

The women's shirt differed from the men's in that it was up to the heels, and the men's shirt was only up to the middle of the thigh, sometimes up to the knee.

A women's shirt was made with a straight neckline on the chest, without a collar or with a low stand-up collar. Preparing a festive shirt, village needlewomen tried to show everything they were capable of. Sleeves, shoulders, collar and hem of the shirt were decorated with embroidery and small appliqué as geometric ornament. They put on a skirt for haymaking - a shirt with a wide strip of embroidery along the hem.

But a single national women's costume, despite the similarity of common features, did not work out in Russia. In different provinces, women's clothing had its own differences in cut, decoration, fabric pattern. Consider these images.

Which of the costumes do you like best and why?

In different provinces, embroidery was done in its own way, using various ornaments.

But the purpose was common - to decorate the costume and protect the person from evil forces, since the embroidery was placed along the edges of the clothes: collar, hem, bottom of the sleeve (this is where evil spirits could penetrate the body). In order to "secure" a person, embroidery contained all sorts of sacred images and magical symbols.

Modern researchers distinguish two main sets of women's costume: a shirt with a sundress and a shirt with a ponytail and an apron.

A. Charlemagne. Women's outfit Oryol province. 1916

A shirt with a pony and an apron is more ancient in origin. They are most characteristic of the South - Russian costume. A women's long shirt with sleeves is the oldest common Slavic type of attire. unmarried girls They only wore a shirt with an apron. And married people also wore poneva.

Poneva - a cloth that replaces a skirt, is an obligatory accessory for the clothes of a Russian married woman, a prototype of a modern long skirt. Only the poneva was always shorter than the shirt. dressed poneva in a special way: the canvas of the poneva was wrapped around the waist with a cut forward, and the edges were tucked into the belt, opening the hem of the shirt, which was covered with an apron.

Vinogradov S.A. To work 1895

Initially, the "sarafan" literally meant princely men's attire covering the entire figure. Only in the 16th century did the sundress begin to be used as women's clothing. It replaced the poneva on the territory of Russia, first in the northern regions, and by the beginning of the 19th century it had become one of the main parts of traditional women's clothing. Sundresses were worn with aprons, which played a dual role: they protected clothes from dirt and covered their undecorated parts.

Antonov S.A. Girl plucking a flower. 1842

Women's costume was not conceived without a headdress. Married woman could not go out without a headdress to people, her hair had to be braided into two temporal braids, laid around her head with a crown and hidden under a headdress. The headscarf was one of the main parts of the women's costume.

Buchkuri A.A. Spinners. 1903-1905

In addition to everyday and festive scarves, there were also magpies, warriors, and kokoshniks.

Little girls wore simple cloth ribbons 0.5 - 2.5 centimeters wide on their foreheads. Girls were allowed to wear open bandages - ribbons that covered only the forehead and back of the head. Before marriage, the girls, parting their hair with a straight parting, braided one braid low on the back of the head into three braids. The scythe fell freely from under the headdress.

On holidays, the girl's braid was decorated with ribbons and braids (KOSNIK) - girlish decoration, woven into a braid with a cord between strands of hair. The kosnik was considered an obligatory detail of the festive decoration of the girl's head; he completed a rather complex hairstyle. He was tied to the end of the braid, which was woven into 12 - 14 strands - "lashes". To give the braid width and density, braid was woven into it, garus threads studded with beads, bright colorful ribbons. In the Russian village, it was customary to believe that a beautiful, richly trimmed braid gives the girl additional attractiveness. Kosniks have become widespread throughout the territory occupied by the Russian population from beads.

An obligatory part of any peasant costume was a belt, and everyone wore it - from young to old. After all, he was primarily a talisman, the talisman was an object that, according to superstitious ideas, could protect from various disasters. a trait that protects the human body from evil forces. It was impossible to appear in public without a belt. The significance of this moment is preserved in folklore - completely unbelted. The belt also performed the elementary functions of fastening parts of clothing: they tied an apron with it, pulled up a sundress, and supported ports. Belts could be woven, knitted, belt belts were worn only by men. Ornaments were embroidered on the belts, and their ends were decorated with tassels, pompons, amulets.

In addition, purses, pouches and other small household items were hung from the belt. After all, pockets began to appear only at the end of the 17th century. Clothes were sewn from homespun In Rus', the first fabrics were made from flax, hemp, wild hop stalks and nettles. Until the 17th century, fabrics in Rus' were homespun, which means that they were woven at home primarily for their own needs, and if something remained, then for sale. These were coarse undyed fabrics, while thin linen and silk were imported from abroad. For more information about the process of making fabrics in Rus', see here http://rf-history.narod.ru/26.htmllinen. Such fabric was linen or hemp, from white to yellow-gray.

But in festive costume not only domestic fabrics were used, but also those that were bought at the fair: silk, chintz, satin, brocade, ribbons, gold or silver galloon, taffeta, satin, velvet, cashmere, calico.

K. Yuon. Red goods. 1905

Holidays demanded the most serious, respectful attitude, because it is only on weekdays that moderation in food and simple is appropriate, comfortable clothes. And the more significant the holiday, the brighter and dressier suit. So the peasant woman created long winter evenings an amazing fabulous outfit, which required considerable art, diligence, skill.

Until the beginning of the 20th century, such fabrics, unlike homespun ones, remained expensive for the village and were intended for festive clothes. All scraps of fabrics were carefully stored in bags, saved for toys. And when they made dolls, the patches were carefully selected. Red rags were especially appreciated, they went to the most beautiful dolls. IN folk clothes also loved the color red. Red has long served as a talisman, a symbol of life and the life-giving force of nature, and besides, it is the color of the holiday. And in the old days, the word “red” also meant beautiful (“beautiful girl”).

Eliseev E.A. Brides. Trinity day. 1907

Rag dolls, sewn from a new patch, were specially made as a gift for christening, for the day of the angel, for the holiday, showing kindred love and care. In the old days, on the feast of the Entry of the Virgin into the Temple, when winter festivities began on a sleigh, small children and birthday girls were sent “trump” sledges with dolls as a gift.

Doll with a sleigh

Such a duty lay with mothers-in-law and godmothers. Note that “homemade” dolls were given to relatives and friends, cementing family ties: this is also one of the evidence of their sacred meaning. In the family, for their children, dolls were usually “spun” from old rags. And not even because of poverty, but according to the ritual of blood intimacy. It was believed that worn matter kept ancestral power and, embodied in the doll, passed it on to the child, becoming a talisman.

Carl Lemoh. Children. 1890s

For the same reason, newborns were wrapped in underwear parental shirts, swaddled in diapers from worn clothes. Hems were most often used for dolls women's shirts and aprons. It was these parts of the costume that, in contact with the ground and thus absorbing its strength, had the greatest sacred meaning. It is noteworthy that shreds for dolls were always torn by hand along a straight thread, and not cut off with scissors. It was believed that such a toy prophesied integrity without flaws and damage to her little mistress.

Often doll clothes accurately conveyed the features of local costumes.

On a doll from the Oryol province - a canvas shirt with straight polka dots, with a frill in front, with rectangular patches of calico sewn on the shoulders. The collar, like in real shirts, is assembled on a narrow lining and decorated with a green silk ribbon. The top of the sleeves and cuffs is trimmed with a strip of red-patterned weaving. The doll is wearing a characteristic Oryol poneva made of homespun wool with a seam of black and blue satin, sheathed along the hem with a red woolen braided belt. An apron with a frill made of bright colorful chintz with a large-rapport pattern is put on over the poneva. On the head of the doll there is a headdress in the form of a crown, embroidered with lace, beads, sequins, ribbons.

The similarity of the puppet costume, however, does not mean a simple imitation of genuine peasant clothes. On the contrary, the craftswomen were able to make such a selection of details, develop such traditional techniques that speak of creating artistic image in a rag toy.

Today it will seem strange that the costume was not removed from the doll. Couldn't our ancestors have thought of such a simple thing? But they did not set themselves this task: after all, the doll was created as an integral form. This important principle- the doll is not a dressing-up mannequin, but a valuable image in itself. The costume organically participated in the plasticity of the toy. Its cut was simple and expressive in a doll-like way.

Rag dolls in traditional costumes

So, for example, poneva for a rag figurine was sewn from one piece of fabric, while in women's clothing she was quadrilateral.

With even greater freedom, the costume was decorated. Shirts embroidered with a pattern on the shoulders were imitated with one or two stripes of red cross embroidery. A sonorous colorful ornamental spot adorns the doll with an apron made of chintz with a bright floral pattern. And from a complex headdress, consisting of several parts, the craftswomen chose only the most spectacular detail- for example, an embroidered bandage with a silk ribbon crowning the head with a red fan.

Master Class. Create a simplified version (Russian) folk costume For play doll do it yourself 35-55cm. Lots of letters and photos.

Good day to all readers!
I often sew for dolls, especially for kindergarten ones.
One of the last "orders" at first puzzled me a little.
- We need a doll in a red folk costume with a kokoshnik for a corner. Well, sew from some scraps.

Of course, I could not resist and turned in about a bear with a balalaika))) The bear, they said, is not necessary, but a red dress with a kokoshnik is necessary.

It is clear that real costumes of 45-50 cm are not sewn from “pieces”, but only one kokoshnik can be embroidered for months ... Therefore, the task had to be simplified and made as cheap as possible. Budget - 0 rub 00 kop.

I was given the future "". A strong Soviet doll with a height of about 50-55 cm, with a flirty hairstyle and no underwear. Linen in our garden is not held in high regard at all, even when worn on a doll, it disappears in the most mysterious way exactly after a week. I checked)))

To begin with, the doll was washed, the hair was prolenorized and the curlers were wound. The most ordinary human ones from a well-known network company)) I love them (these curlers) wholeheartedly, honestly.

I photographed the doll next to my Italian (45cm) just out of curiosity and as a keepsake.

Our folk costume will consist of a lower dress (a white shirt with embroidery and frills) and a red upper dress (as ordered)). We make the kokoshnik last.

We start with the bottom shirt. It will be White dress detachable at the waist line.

I often draw patterns on paper first. The most important detail- the upper part of the shirt (from the neck to the waist). First, we draw separately 1/2 parts of the shelf (front) and 1/2 parts of the back. Then we fold the parts of the shelf and back to each other with shoulder seams and combine them into one common part. Got half top finished product.

Mdyams ... I'm sorry, but I made the pattern "one-time" on unnecessary paper)))

Then we impose this detail on the fabric and circle it, creating one single element already on the fabric.

On the right, the detail has already been circled, then the paper pattern has been turned over and circled the left side in a mirror image. My pencil is disappearing, so we don’t pay attention to the extra lines (in the photo on the very left)).

Cut out the detail. The clasp will be on the back. Trying on a doll. The part is single, we will sew only the side seams. Not now!!!

We correct the fit on the figure before sewing. We don't sew anything yet!
Now let's do the sleeves. In a lightweight version, these are just rectangles. We calculate the sizes "by doll". We need the sleeve length and width, taking into account the gathers. Can be lined up and cut out.

For a preliminary assessment of the result, we lay sleeves on top of each part machine stitches to create assemblies. We tighten the lines, apply the blanks of the sleeves to the blank of the dress.

If everything suits you, you can lay finishing lines on the details of the sleeves at an arbitrary height and in an arbitrary quantity. The bottom of the sleeve is immediately formed - lace, rubber band ... everything that fantasy tells.
The sleeves are stitched to the armholes, we process the cut. Then we combine and grind the side seam of the shirt and sleeve with one seam. Processing the cut. You can make a neck. The easiest way is a lace stand-up collar.
We make the skirt in the same way as the sleeves - we measure, cut out a rectangle, decorate the bottom (frills, lace, ruffles), process the side sections. Apply to the doll.

We adjust the length. This must be done right now, because. We have already processed the bottom of the skirt. We connect the lower and upper parts of our white (lower) dress.

Now we process the clasp. She is behind. The options are different. Can upper part make on the buttons, and half of the skirt (starting from the bottom edge, stitch into a single piece).

The red part of the dress. Choose a color scheme for jewelry. In a simplified version, all skirt decorations can be reduced to jacquard braid and a couple of decorative stitches. We impose available (and more or less suitable for color scheme) ribbons and ribbons.

We make the final choice. Decorative stitches (if you do not sew often and are not sure of the result) it is better to rehearse on pieces of fabric. In our case, the fabric is thin, we sew on paper. The training results look like this:

To simplify the task as much as possible, I decided to abandon traditional performance top dress in the form of a sundress, replacing it with a skirt. The skirt is easier and faster to sew. On a doll of this size, it will look quite "folk". We try on an almost finished skirt with processed lower and side cuts.

We adjust the length. Again, "clean", because. the bottom edge has already been finished. We make the necessary folds / gathers for a good fit on the figure. We sew a belt to the top of the skirt. I took a ready-made bias tape suitable color. I made the skirt “with a smell”, i.e. it wraps around the waist (under the bust) and ties into a bow. To form "strings", the belt is made slightly longer than the canvas. For some reason, I did not take a picture of the finished skirt. She will be lower on the doll.

We pass to the kokoshnik.

The shape is drawn arbitrarily by hand on paper, cut out, tried on to the doll's head, put aside, a new one is drawn ... and so on until the manufacturer likes the result))) I made about 5 options, settled on the least cumbersome and simple to perform.
(I am aware that the headdress of girls (and judging by the body, our model is a girl of about 7 years old) looked different in Rus'))) but they made it clear to me that the administration kindergarten this historical fact never care. Therefore, we have a kokoshnik)))

According to the pattern approved by us, we cut out blanks from the main fabric (from which the dress was sewn). In the amount of 2 pieces.

You can force this design to keep its shape different ways. The easiest - dense fabric on an adhesive basis (doublerin). Flizelin is too thin, we do not take it. I duplicated only that detail of the kokoshnik, which will be outside, rear end without amplification.
Then we draw a pattern on the “front” part of our headdress. I did not complicate matters by driving the element under the embroidery machine. Therefore, I simply drew a trinket by hand with disappearing chalk and embroidered it with metallic threads on a regular sewing machine one of the fat decorative stitches.

We are not afraid of the abundance of chalk on the front side of the product. The chalk will disappear after 24 hours, it's special)))
The most difficult thing is to connect the two parts of our kokoshnik. Ideally Bottom part should be slightly smaller than the top. One of the ways to achieve given result- decant the lower part after grinding. We stitch, fold front sides inside. We cut the edges to a reasonable height, cut the excess in the seams. We turn it right side out and iron it with an iron with steam (yes, this is decatification at home, you can also sprinkle it with some water)) The non-duplicated lower part of the kokoshnik shrinks and we get the very bend we need. Naturally, this will only work in the case of a new all-natural thin cotton cloth. Synthetics almost never shrink.
We process the lower cut with the same oblique trim that was used to complete the red skirt. Kokoshnik is almost ready. You can embroider it with beads. But the fastest way is to stick rhinestones)))

Dress up the doll.

"Red folk costume with a kokoshnik" is ready. Stroking ourselves on the head))) We have completed the main task - we sewed a simple inexpensive outfit as part of the announced order. Looking ahead, I’ll say that the administration was very pleased, promised a monument and asked “from the leftovers” to sew the same for another group. Hearing that everything was done exclusively on personal funds rolled her eyes in disappointment...

Our kindergarten is municipal, unpretentious, without extortions “for European-quality repairs and European-style furniture”, we and our children sincerely love it, and therefore, pretend that the following photo did not shock you)))
