Hi all
..Computer probs have meant I haven't been able to get here much lately - but hope you all had good Christmasses and New Years!
Can I ask a quickie about feathers?? I want to try using a feather boa for puppet hair but what's the best way to apply it? I should really buy one and experiment but thought I'd ask first. I assume you can sew the 'spine' of the boa to the puppet fabric? (surely you don't have to clip the feathers off and sew/thread them all individually do you???)
Also, are there good sources out there for generic puppet eyes? (gloss white, round and slightly domed) and with a ready-to-use fitting method, basically something just like the teddy bear eyes you can buy.
Any help with these questions is greatly appreciated, thanks!
Jeremy
