Cookie's only drawback is finding the doggone blue long shag fur..................I am guessing that the only way to get it is to buy white nylon fur and dye it with aljo blue dye.

The rest should be fairly easy.

I always wanted to have my own muppets. Since it is impossible to get one, the only thing to do was to build one. That's why i started to learn puppetbuilding, plus i think it's really fun, and now with the knowlege i have i will definately use it to create a few characters of my own.

I am going to make a gonzo sometime soon, but i wonder about his furr...what kind of furr is that? And is it easy to get that kind of furr?

I have the fur I want to use, Its not as dark as I would like but its cool. When I cut the pattern do I cut it for the WHOLE thing or would he be in parts like the others? Knowutimean?

There is a shop in Toronto that has the hard-to-find Cookie Monster/Grover blue shag fur. If it's not the fur, it's pretty darn close. It's the first time I've ever actually seen it in a store. I think it's $60/Cdn per yard (about $40 US). If some people really wanted some I could pick some up for them.

Speaking of which Bork Bork, did u ever get that "NedHead" puppet?

Too bad its in Toronto and I am in San Antonio, I need gas money.

Nope the puppet never did arrive. Some mailworkers must have really loved that puppet

I'm in Montreal and theres free plane trips to Toronto...what's the store called?

 

[Buck-Beaver]

Free? I knew there were discounted trips `cause of the SARS scare, but free??

Anyhow, it's at MacFab on Queen West. They have tons of cool furs and fabrics.
