Hi Everyone, Been busy working on a new puppet for a friend who is writing a skit. I'm making three puppets to begin with, the baby, a nanny (elderly babysitter) and a bear. I had made the bear but wasn't happy with it, it was too large and not cute enough, going to start again with that one...

Hi all, I've spent my Christmas toilet training my son. I've downloaded the Sesame Street android app for my Asus tablet so he can watch sesame street videos while he sits which makes it more enjoyable for him (and me). He absolutely loves cookie monster (almost more than he loves Elmo) so as...

Hi all, as I mentioned in my previous post, I've just now purchased all the patterns from Project Pattern so am trying to find puppet projects to make with them that will also be well received by my little boy. I purchased the forma series with fleece coverings. This is the rounder pattern...

Hi all, I decided to purchase the rest of the Project Puppet Patterns (prior to Christmas I only had all the simple series). I now own them all, so decided to start with the Borsa Pattern. Followed it exactly as it stood except I drew the arms onto the pattern so that when it came time to sew...

Hi all, I made this for a charity auction and it went down really well. I used Antron Fleece "flesh tone" from Out of the Box. The tails suit came from Ebay, as did the shoes. Eyes were blank from Ebay, and I used some self sticking black felt for the pupils. I used an enlarged Melonhead...

Hi all, I made this puppet from the project puppet simple series punto (I think), but used the alternative simple series body and added some alterations to the hands to make it a live hand puppet (no fingers, more like a mitten). I wanted to keep it relatively simple. This puppet was more of a...

Hi all, I started work on my Elmo for my nearly 2 year old son last Sunday. I used the Monster style puppet pattern from Project puppet which gives enough of a likeness for my purposes. Even with just the head completed my little boy already recognised his favorite furry little monster. My...

Hi all, I've being working on my version 2.0 of Kermit and have completed his body, arms and legs so far. Ignore the pics with the head as I've since scrapped the head as I wasn't happy with the overall look. This is being done for my friend's son who is a huge muppets fan. I'll be making a...

hi all, When I'm done with Kermit, I want to make my little boy an Elmo puppet. I've been searching Ebay, and a few other places for fur, and it's really hard to work out what fur best suits Elmo. I've found a Mongolian Faux Fur on Ebay which looks nice, but still doesn't quite look right...

Hi everyone, I introduced myself on the family thread, but failed to add any pics of my kermit. To keep in mind, my past experience has been putting together batman costumes (molded rubber style) from pieces others made, so I've never attempted anything from scratch myself before. I started...
