    My Antron

    I actually dye mine manually in a 5 gallon bucket. I used to use the machine, but I had too many incidences where the antron got pills on it because the machine was too vigerious during the cycles. I precut my pieces and dye one set at a time to ensure that I get good solid even color...

    Velcro; what fabric will it attach to?

    It bonds to Antron Fleece really well, just push item with velcro tabs into the fabric and give a little "rub" and the hooks on the Velcro adhere to the pile of antron fleece really well. My alternative to antron is anti-pil fleece because it also has a short pile to the fabric...... but the...

    Puppets and Pesticides

    As some of you may know, I have work being displayed at a local gallery. I was recently informed that the building will be tented and treated with pesticides this weekend. I've been told that this stuff doesn't leave a residue or scent, but should I be concerned about my puppets? Do you think...

    Convert from plush toy to puppet, anyone done this?

    Puppet Mania is the way to go here..... I never attempted that until John Kennedy's section on the subject piqued my interest. I tried it with a bear similar to the one John used and it came out great! That book is awsome and I rank it right up there with the foam book as one of the top puppet...
