Last post I asked how easy is a Sock Project Puppet.  I believe everyone now.  I'll be getting a PP next month or so.  Just need the supplies which are lot of things.  My question is What type of good fabrics should I use?        

The PP guides will make some reccomendations, but generally, something with some stretch (avoid twills, bottom weights, and woven fabrics) and a little nape (a little texture) to hide stitches. Fake furs and fleeces seem to be the standards, though I imagine with some practice and skills, you could make anything work.

Do you have something specific in mind?

What I have in mind for now, Dr. Megan, a Royal Blue Fleece.   

I used a generic run of the mill fleece when I used a Project Patten design and it was a dream. The seams are minimal with those patterns so even if they are visible, they are not really where you focus your attention on the puppet. Add a nose and some hair and they disappear!

I think that sounds lovely!  For a moment, I thought you were going to say you were working with a neon pink metallic woven fabric shot with fuzzy puffballs, or something totally ridiculous.

Actually, that sounds fantastic. Hrm...

Will you be using the puppet for live work or for film (video, web, whatever)? One of the things I've been learning is the darker colored the puppet is, the more you have to light it. If it's a really dark blue, you might want to make the mouth interior out of a non-black fabric (red, pink, maybe green for a goofy monster look) to create more contrast with the dark fleece. It'll help the audience see the mouth movements better even if the lighting isn't great.

You can get polar, blizzard and anti-pill fleece at any Joanns Fabric, and it's usually on sale. I would start with that for sure, then when you're ready, move up to Antron fleece.

Thank you, Dr. Megan and CJ Puppet for your advice.  I'll be making the mouth pink or red.  :O  CJ Puppet, I'll look around at JoAnns for a good Dark blue or blizzard color fleece.  Dr.  Megan, my future puppet will be for my puppet live shows.    Take care. 

Let us know when you're ready to try Antron. A couple of people here, Myself and Julie (mpgrace) both sell it.

I found Anti-Pill works best before heading into the world of Antron.

With antron being $15+ a yard vs. $3 a yard for anti-pill (on sale)I just can't justify it! And I personally am not fond of the sheen on antron, I know not everyone feels this way. Even so I have some special puppets in mind I'd like to do with antron some day.
I do prefer anti-pill over blizzard fleece in most cases.
