Here is my latest and hopefully final Kermit head. This has been done with the Antron fleece and a highly modifyed FP Kermit pattern. The Antron fleece has been a dream to work with, the seams came out pretty good using a pin, dog brush, and my wifes clothes defuzzer. Thanks for the tips...

Thanks for the tips!! I did not see those, I have done tons of searchs on this forum and I didn't see either of those sites mentioned and I didn't see it on the Project puppet site. Here is my color now, and my test stripes I did just minutes before I put the whole fabric in. I'll go back...

Even if the RIT color dye receipt calls for a full package? Wouldn't that make the color lighter? Lynn

Thanks, I'm gonna give it one more shot, then I'll snip off a paw off of my FP Kermit and send it to RIT along with a Antron fleece sample and see what they come up with. Hey, it is free, why not..?.. Lynn

Well, my first test dying was a disaster on my Antron fleece!!!! My color came out more like a camo green, so I wasted $7 in dyes down the drain. I used RIT's dye color mixing guide for the CHARTREUSE and I figured I'll try golden yellow and Kelly green instead of the regular yellow aand Kelly...

How close is the Fisher Price Kermit to the real Kermit? I see the RIT site says you can send a piece of material to them and they will custom make you a recipeit to match it. Lynn

Thanks, I saw that before, that helps a little, but I was wondering if anyone had anything closer? Lynn

I just ordered my Antron Fleece from Kathy today. Can anyone tell me what RIT color dye mix will work for Kermit? I did a search, but didn't dome with much. Thanks, Lynn

Is hat stiffer/thicker then stiff felt? and is it dyeable? Lynn

What about double layer fleece with fusable interface in between each layer? I almost thought about stiff felt, I'm assuming white stiff felt would accept dye..?.. I don't know if felt is dyeable. Lynn

Is Kermits collar a differnet material then his body? It seems much stiffer. Lynn

Looking really good!! Lynn

Very nice puppet!! Lynn
