day 6. that's a lot of days.
well, im pretty burnt out. i dont recommend making 10 puppets at one go ahead. here is today:
got all the arms sewed on.
then everyone got ready for their eyes:
got their eyes! now just in line for teeth…
teeth for some!
and then i had enough. the rest of the tweaks will take place tomorrow and tuesday. need to see how i react to them after a day of not looking at them. ...
saturday. day 5.
hope you’re excusing the phone camera…it sure does love making everything just a little bit yellow.
my hands are starting to hurt. i think they’re just raw from the glue gun burns today and then later stabbing them accidentally over and over with the needle. i’ve watched/listened to so many documentaries and episodes of intervention this weekend. helps me not focus on...
so here's the upcoming show i'm in. this... →

come on down. 5-10pm.
day four!
holy crap that was a long day of sewing, but it was the one i was dreading the most, so hopefully it’ll go a lot quicker from here on out. 20 arms sewn and stuffed. woo. first they looked like this all inside out:
then i had to turn them right side out and fill em full of soft stuff.
then i sewed in all the soft stuff and ended up with a pile of paws. whew. tomorrow will be mouths...
end of day two.
end of day 2 and ive got 10 heads and 10 bodies (all inside out, dont worry). next step: twenty paws. woo, im gonna need some more good docs. that pearl jam one suprisingly was good. got me through the heads!
making 10 puppets in a week. due dec. 1st.
that’s the goal anyway. i thought i’d document the process and see how close i can come to this goal. it started out with over 2 hours of cutting all different colored furs and then last night and this morning i ended up with 10 new bodies (all inside out) plus i got a head start on all the heads! hoping to get the other six heads done by tonight or tomorrow morning.
this is just...
first thursday in december.
