for the swede here with a smaller english vocabulary than you guys, could you plese explain what the word reticulated means so i could start looking for that kind of foam here in sweden? Up until now i have worked with regular upholstryfoam but as i understand reticulated has a lighter wheight...

I'd be very happy if the deadline was extended a day or two. I have the puppet ready but i feel that i need some work on charachter features. However those who have submitted already might feel upset because they had to rush it (?)

On the sockpuppet-pattern i tried craft-foam and it works really good for such a small puppet. I can imagine it's not really good for bigger puppets though.

I'm still working on finishing touches of my puppets. Do i have to submit it today or do i have all day tomorrow to submit?

Does anyone know if there is somthing to hold your fingers tight to the mouthplate in kermit? Like fingertubes or a grip of some kind...

The other posters has already said what i thought, so... well, i like your puppets very much! keep it up and true perfection will come. Very good!

So cool!

I like them very much, especially the mouse. So cute!

Hehehe. It's almost like David Pannabecker did. But he only put eyes on his, you've gone the whole way. Looks great!

Ones again, lovely pattern! Here's what i've come up with. This is not for the competition tho, only for me to practice on: Click, Click

That's exactly what i was wondering. And the answer was also as i thought, but i wanted to be sure. Thanks!

I'm wondering, when sewing the mouth interior to the fleece, which way should the felt meet the fleece? Inside or outside of the fleece?

In the pattern it says that you stuff the head to round it off. So, may i use sheet-foam instead for the contest? I will use the original pattern for it so it's nothing i made up myself...

Thanks! I am actually stiching right now. i used hot tapwater, but boiled one teaboiler of water to add to it. It turned out fine, i only had to keep it in about 25 minutes. I'm surprized at how fast antron dries. It's all dry now so i am stiching as i said. I actually handstitch. I used to work...

Just a friendly tip. i found this while surfing after resources: Cutting and sewing fake fur It explains how to get an even cut without destroying the strands aswell as getting strands out of the seams.

Wow, i am dyeing antron for the first time ever. I'm using the hottest tapwater, it is pretty hot. And i am uing my tup. Let's hope it doesn't pick up the dye tho, or my wife to be will be furious with me :o I am using a dye called nitor. I followed the instructions and let's hope it turns...

About the pattern, when printing, is 100% enough for a regular adult hand or do i have to enlarge it? My own hands arn't big, nor small but just average...

If everything goes well i will try to be in the contest ;) I did get the pattern. Very simple but interesting pattern. I'll try to use my antron that i bought 3-4 years ago ;)

I just emailed you. Don't have aspamfilter or any automated sorting in my email. I'm really courious about the pattern.
