First, I've always been a fan of puppetry, the muppets and making stuff in general. I decided a couple months ago to dive in and try making a puppet once I saw how much my 2 year-old daughters eyes lit up around the couple store-bought ones we had.

This is the result:

She's not perfect, and it's hard for me to share her being that I'm such a perfectionist, but I've gotten the bug, learned a lot (a lot from Project Puppet and their awesome pattern) and plan on making more.

I'd love to hear what you folks think.

Great job! I really like the hair. Like someone else said, too, the color selection is fantastic. I hope your daughter is enjoying it!
