I think it's so wonderful that someone so young has a desire to be a puppet builder! I was ten when I first had communication with Jim Henson, and it changed my life forever. Best of luck in your puppet building, and please post any photos you have of your work when you get them. I'm excited to see what you're creating!

Yeah it's nice to see someone so young being so motivated. I have a few links for you on my blog:
http://glueandscrew.blogdrive.com/
Just check the sidebar. Most of the links there are from Buck's Puppetbuilding Resources Page:
http://www.bear-town.com/backstage.htm

Hope that'll get you started. I first started making a puppet using the Blue Boy Pattern myself. But there are lots of methods to try out. Good luck! :smile:
