Hi all, I've been going through old pictures working on a new web site and decided to create a flickr gallery of puppets I've either built, designed or worked on from 1994-2002. Some of them are good, some not-so-good; they were built for a whole range of things - everything from high school...

Mike Peterson - a puppeteer on Fraggle Rock and Labryinth among other things - has a show in this year's Toronto Fringe Festival called "Don't Get Me Started". From what I have been reading it seems to be the story of his life and features a Fraggle puppet made by Terry Angus. I've posted...

Here's a link to a terriffic free online sewing book - http://craftandfabriclinks.com/sewingbook/sewbook.html I know questions about sewing often come up here, and I suspect many people on the board (myself included) have never been taught how to sew properly and taught themselves on a...
