So, by now, hopefully you know that I am working on 2 puppets at once. 1 special puppet and 1 puppet that will be a part of a free giveaway as soon as it is finished. So when I update this blog, there will pieces of both being documented, not just one at a time.
History lesson: Jim Henson figured out that if you stitch the puppet a certain way, using a certain material, then take a needle and pull the fibers away from the seam ("picking the seam"), the seam will almost disappear. In the first picture you can see the results: the bottom half of the face has been picked, and the top hasn't. The second picture is a concept for the logo of the "super secret project." That's all I can say about that haha! In the last picture I wanted to show you how simple it is to make really nice puppet eyes. These particular eyes are made of nothing more than a ping pong ball that has been cut in half. A lot of people use felt circles for the pupils, but I like using solid black doll eyes because it gives the eyes a little more dimension.
