Manufacturing technique
To make the pig beautiful, you need to use special templates - patterns. First you need to prepare small paper blanks, they are applied to the fabric, and the blanks are cut out.

Choosing a filler
Various materials can be used as a filler; there are no special requirements for it. A synthetic winterizer or holofiber is best suited for filler. It does not go astray, it helps the toy to keep its shape.
If it is not possible to use synthetic materials, you can fill the pig with foam rubber, cotton pads, cloth, ordinary cotton wool. Great for toys filler fluff, wood shavings, styrofoam. The most important thing is that the toy should be easy to care for during operation.
A little advice! Use colored pencils to draw Piggy's cheeks or emboss with color. Gently tweak the pencil lead with a blade, and then use a cotton swab or finger to paint on the “cheeks” or other parts of the toy.

If the toy has many decorative elements, it is better to use shower gel or shampoo as a detergent. After rinsing, the product is lightly wrung out, placed on a horizontal surface until completely dry.
