Children very much like to construct various "shelters" from everything that comes to hand. It is worth supporting desire of the baby to have a secluded fantastic corner and to construct for the child a bright and cheerful lodge tent which will be appropriate also at home, and at the dacha.

It is required to you

  • Dense fabric (raincoat fabric), threads, scissors, material strips for frills, tulle, a velcro, an inlay, a hoop basis, a ring, foam rubber, a glue spider line

Instruction

1. From dense material (it is the best of all to take raincoat fabric: it does not pour and it is possible not to process seams) it is necessary to find four details for the top part of a lodge - in the form of the big trapezes which are rounded off from below - and four details for lower - in the form of the small triangles which are also rounded off. The lower details should be sewed among themselves on longitudinal edges. The truncated cone will turn out. The top elements should be sewed that the conical cap of a tent turned out. Then the top needs to be sewn to a lodge bottom.

2. For a frill it is necessary to take two long strips of fabric (with a stock). They will be required to be put the faces. Then it is necessary to mark a frill, to stitch, is closer to a line to cut off allowances and to turn out. It is necessary to make a loop of a strip of fabric and to pass throughout it a ring. All four small cones should be sewed among themselves, having inserted an eyelet. After an eyelet and a frill it is necessary to sew to a cone.

3. The hoop-hulakhup with a diameter about 50 cm can become a framework. It can be fixed by ties which are sewn around the top seam from inner side.

4. Now it is time to cut out a lodge entrance. From tulle it is necessary to find two curtains and to tack them with an overlap over a tent door. From each party it is necessary to tack ties for curtains. Atop it will be required to sew a wide slanting inlay (the strip which is released on a seam for finishing) from fabric.

5. For production of a floor it is worth cutting out two circles with a diameter of 1 m from fabric. On 3/4 circles it is necessary to sew by means of a tape on which previously it is necessary to attach velcro pieces. Inside it is necessary to insert foam rubber. Then it is necessary to sew up the remained quarter. The bottom of a tent is recommended to be sheathed an inlay on which it is also necessary "to attach" velcros. Velcros will hold a tent on floor perimeter.
