Steemit Engagement Challenge S2-W1: Turn Waste Into Valuable Products (To Sell)-PATCWORK DOLL
PATCWORK DOLL
Convection residue is one of the wastes that must be handled to reduce the volume of waste production. As the population continues to grow, convection production also increases and convection waste also increases.
One way of handling waste, which is commonly called patchwork, is to process it into various handicrafts that have a selling value, which is certainly useful. This can reduce the amount of waste that continues to increase.
While honing creativity, I make various simple crafts from patchwork at my house when I have free time from daily mandatory activities for my suovenir product. I'm currently making patchwork doll brooch as a birthday souvenir ordered IMA Party Decoration, fulfilling her customer's birthday decoration order.
Considering the theme raised by @steembetterlife as one of the communities selected as the recipient of the challenge task by @steemitblog , I took the initiative to review it as the topic of my contest.
Before I start the tutorial for steemians, let's prepare the tools and materials needed.
MATERIALS AND TOOLS
In addition to patchwork as a basic material, there are several other tools and materials that we will use to support appearance and ease when making it.
Here are the materials and tool who I use:
| materials & tools | attachment |
|---|---|
| patchwork |  |
| tulle Patchwork |  |
| doll eyes |  |
| brooch pin |  |
| scissor |  |
| needle and thread |  |
| glue gun |  |
| beads/ribbon |  |
THE TUTORIALS
There are several steps to making a patchwork doll. This is easy. Here I describe in detail.
1. Patchwork Doll Top
Cut the tulle with a width of 2 cm and a length of 40 cm. if the tulle patchwork is short it can be put together by direct sewing without having to connect it. Fold the wide part of the tulle and sew on the long part that is not cut.
Until you get half a pom-pom. Cut the sides to make it neat.
2. Patchwork Doll Bottom
Cut the patterned or plain patchwork with a length of 10 cm and a width of 4 cm. Burn the edges of the fabric so as not to damage the fabric oftexture.

Stitch along one of the long sides and pull until it forms wrinkle.

3. Forming Patchwork Dolls for brooch
Cut the patchwork with a length of 8 cm and a width of 2 cm. Cut it into a bunny ear shape on one long side as shown below
paste the bottom of the patchwork doll
Followed by the top of the patchwork doll.
Glue the brooch pin at the bottom
Glue the doll eyes. Give Decorations To Beautify the Appearance, like the ribbon or beads.
Finished...! Patchwork doll pin brooch is ready.
This patchwork doll can also be used as a hair ornament.
Now, let's prepare the materials to wrap it to make it look more interesting.
| Materials Use | attachment |
|---|---|
| plastic packaging |  |
| cover of a use book |  |
| ribbon |  |
It's easy to wrap.
- Cut used book covers and put the Brooch on the cardboard/cover of a used book

- Cut the cover of a used book to follow the shape of a patchwork doll and put it in a plastic bag.
 |  |

- Tie with a ribbon, to make it more beautiful.
The patchwork brooch is ready to be distributed
This is one of the simple patchwork models. I have many other models and of course they are easy to make. Even with creative perseverance, steemians can follow fashion trends to be able to match market demand. Make sure to keep using waste as the main ingredient.
To get more tutorials, you can follow or visit the @dhafwa steemit account regularly. I consistently load patchwork tutorials that can be used as valuable products, of course when I receive a souvenir order. And if you find a post that belongs to me and/or from another account, I suggest you to reesteem so that more people will know how to turn waste into useful things.
This is my effort in campaigning "recycling waste" to the world. By creating valuable products (for sale), people will be more interested in utilizing waste. So that activities of waste recycling are carried out on a long-term timescale.
I hope this simple post can be a motivation for the world community to recycle waste into jobs.
I invite @pixeldinosaur , @fitriafifa , @hafidzah20 to join this contest.
Salam @dhafwa
You really have great creativity. Not everyone has such a creative mind. Thank you so much for sharing with us by reusing old used things and creating new interesting things.
I enjoy doing it. hopefully it can be an inspiration and motivation for steemians to recycle waste in the long term and become a source of income after this pandemic.
and thanks for your positive feedback, but some people don't think like that
You are very creative, not everyone is able to do what you have done.
Thanks. but not everyone views positively the creative side of a person.
Bonekanya bagus kali kk...
