Can we enlarge the pattern or do we have to stick with the original size?

Another questions: Do we have to use just the fabric pattern from Project puppet? Can we make alteration to the fabric pattern?

Thanks

Miguel!

You can change the size of the pattern and you can alter the original pattern to suit your character- adding a beak, horns ect.- See contest rules

What "thecreaturework" said.

Figures - just as I announce my own competition, Project Puppet do another one of theirs! Oh well.... good luck to those who are entering, and I look forward to seeing all of the fabulous entries

Hey Na, sorry about that. The conflict was definitely unintentional. We held a poll last year asking what would be the best time of year for the contest so more folks could participate. July-September won.

That's alright - I was totally being tongue-in-cheek. Just weird timing

Ah oh. I was thinking I had a week longer than I do for this contest. I bought my pattern a couple of weeks ago and did some research,  but I haven't even started making it yet. I better get started.
What's the status of those who have started by the way?

Well I have stitched the body and the basic head.  Just need to put its mouthplate and foam skull in then its on to decorating - the really fun part!  Hopefully I manage to get it finished in time.

By the way I'm off on holiday for a week from the 23rd.  I presume I don't need to do anything after the deadline that would require me to be contactable?

I'm affraid I can't participate this year.  I got a contract job with a short deadline.  When it's complete (Sept 23) I'll post pictures of this unique project.  Good luck to you all on the contest!
