Why not try tracing a mans foot. That way you could adjust the foot size the way you want leaving a little extra space in between the toes for when you sew the two pieces together.Here is a drawing of a small foot........you could just enlarge it. A puppet hand and foot usually is(four)no little finger or little toe.

Your puppet is looking good! Ahhh... you do realize they don't need batteries right?   Just kidding with you... saw the batteries in the picture and wanted to try and say something clever.

I just drew a foot out kind of like the one Billy shows and cut 2, sewed them up.  I actually cut an X in the top piece to turn it right side out and covered that hole where the leg was attached.  That way I had all sides sewn on the machine.  I personally avoid handsewing whenever possible.

I sat down and said to myself "Self, you've been making dolls for years. So one little pair of feet are not going to throw you for a loop." LOL. So I begain to sketch and came up with a pair. Thanks Everyone. I am fixing to post more photos please feel free to give honest opinions.

Billy, Loved the comment on the batteries. LOL

He is coming right along! Love the nose. Can't wait to see him all done up!

Shawn, Thank you. I can't wait either. I ordered the carwash mitts to make his hair. Drawn out a pattern for large feet (I'm praying will work). The Nose I made is just a shape of what I wanted , cut from fleece stuffed with polyfill then ladder stitched on so I could hide the seams.Thanks for your support
