    I had those sheets as a kid! I think my parents have them for when my niece visits.

    Original Muppet Whatnot Workshop now off-line

    I had to remove and reattach the glasses for mine, they were on crooked so the nose piece popped off center. A little hot glue and he was back in business. It's an easy enough fix, and it does allow you to pull the pieces off and reattach if necessary.

    Original Muppet Whatnot Workshop now off-line

    I got an email today saying mine (ordered end of December) had shipped. Seems they were being conservative in their shipping estimates and how long it would take to restock after Christmas.

    Original Muppet Whatnot Workshop now off-line

    Just ordered mine! I got a gift set from my parents for Christmas. Blue body, horn rimmed glasses, white furry hair, red round nose, and lab coat. I'm thinking his name is Petrie (as in the dish) and he's an intern at Muppet Labs. :confused: :eek: The free shipping code worked, but the...

    Looking for Muppet sewing/knitting/cross stitch/craft patterns

    Someone else already mentioned it, but check out Quilting with the Muppets, available on Amazon and elsewhere. I have this book and made a really cute wall hanging for my niece using 4 of the patterns. It's all applique blocks, and it gives you ideas for fabrics to use to make it look really...

    The MuppetCast - Show #88 - Christmas Eve on Sesame Street

    This special has always been a favorite of mine. The music is superb, and the various storylines are masterfully constructed. Plus, it's simply hilarious, even for adults. Snuffy trying to stuff his feet into a chimney? Oscar dumping snow on the musicians? And the opening ice skating...

    Did anyone else have this growing up?

    I had that! We had a few of them, like a Mickey Mouse one where he was in a haunted house with Goofy and Donald as well as the Muppet Show one. It was a brilliant concept, way ahead of its time when you look at the stuff like the Leap Frog products out now and other assorted books with sound.

    Who have you met from the Henson Company?

    I went to graduate school with Heather Henson, but she's the only one from the company I've actually met. Seen a few others from afar though.

    Muppets from Space screening in Texas

    I remember seeing The Muppet Movie at a drive-in when I was a kid. I remember it gave me nightmares of Sweetums coming out of the screen to "get" me. :) I know I saw TMM, The Muppet Caper, and Muppet Christmas Carol in theatres, but I think the rest were all on video.
