Awesome! I can't wait to see the finished puppets. Project puppet's website has a list of helpful stiches.

Awesome first puppet! That is much better than mine was.

I would suggest fur as well. A great place online would be http://www.mendels.com/

Personally I use anti-pill fleece when making puppets for myself/fun/practice, but when it comes to puppet for more professional use I go antron.

Agreed , there are many resources for making puppets. I prefer the play soup videos. www.playsoup.com

I think they have changed it. My patterns from project puppet are all labeled.

it would have a muppet like texture to the skin of the puppet, but so do a lot of puppets that aren't muppets. You could only be considered a muppet knock of if you had characters similar to the muppets. I guess it all depends on the type of puppet you are going to need. Read, learn, ask...

Forgot http://www.projectpuppet.com - good place for patterns and if your are going to be using them for television i recommend using Antron Fleece, it will hide seams and look better on tv than any other fabric.

There are several sites that cover puppet building. http://www.drpuppet.com/ - several informational videos about puppet building http://www.puppetsandstuff.com/ - online community were tons of puppet builders show case their work, answer questions, and provide more information on puppet...

Could always try http://www.pjspuppets.com/, they may be more expensive, but they are very nice puppets.

There is a video on drpuppet.com that outlines making an eye mech. It does cost like 5 dollars, but it is worth more than that.

Agreed the project puppet patterns are a good starting place for anyone.

I plan on doing a review of it as soon after I have it.

$2 a yard? really? that seams kinda high to me. There is such a monopoly on Antron.

The video is to funny. Awesome puppet.
