Hello Everyone,
You might remember that a couple of days ago, I asked about copyrighted free patterns.  Well...I just decided to go ahead and come up with my own pattern/kit to use at my puppet workshops.  I've been wanting to do a very simple pattern that could be used by beginners, with little or no help....I did it! 
I will post some pics of the finished puppet...however, please excuse her ugliness, since I used scrap green fabric to make her...just in case she didn't work.   
Anyways, the kit will include everything to make a puppet, excluding the glue, tape, etc. 
She is very small..only 14" tall, and the head is small too.  But it would be very simple to enlarge and offer a few different sizes.  Personally, I love to use small puppets for a change...they have such cute personalities!    Anyways, let me know what you think.

  Nice! Well, you could see that pressure could make you do it1 Well done!

What a sweet puppet! Can I get a puppet hug from her..lol

lol...thanks guys.  She's very simple and basic, but that's what I needed...for beginners.
Sara

Very cute - her hair is adorable too!!  Nicely done!!

Very nice ! Will this beginner puppet pattern be for sale if so what is the price and purchasing details.

Wow! Very nice! I like the nice round shape of her head.

Yes, it will be for sale.  I have yet to get the exact price, but I believe it will be somewhere between $20 & $25
The kit will include:
Puppet pattern
1" foam for head
foam core for mouthplate
mouth lining fabric (inside & out)
fleece for body
eyes
yarn wig
shirt fabric
fiberfill

The pattern will also be available alone, for $10.
I will have them available for purchase on my website soon, which is purchase by Paypal.  In the meantime, if someone would like it now, they could always contact me through my website, and I could get one together.

For now, I'm working on some workshops coming up, and I have to have enough for those, so I'm not offering it on my site yet.

Thanks for encouragement, guys!

By the way...do you guys have suggestions for prices?  A kit is new to me...but because it is a beginner puppet, I thought the pattern should come with it.  Although, now that I think about it...that won't work!  :-(  I will probably sell them both separately, so:  pattern for $10 and kit for $15.  Otherwise, people would get double patterns.  LOL

Hey Guys,
Question about my kits here.  I'm now getting my pattern bound and everything...my workshops are in 3 weeks.
My first thought on price was:
   *  Pattern  -  $10
   *  Kit (including foam and all)  -  $15
   *  Finished Puppet  -  $25
But then I realized that the pattern & kit would be the same price as the completed puppet.  Is this OK, since they will be able to reuse the pattern?  Or, do I need to come down a little:  Pattern - $7 and Kit - $12..or something like that?
Let me know what you think!
