puppetmaker | Crafty Tuesday (So What do You want to Know?) (Reply)

Since there has been some interest in my idea for a crafty entry once a week so I thought I would give it a try.

But I would like to know what you the reader would be interested in my talking about.

I figured I would talk about current projects I am working.

I thought I might do some how to or short cuts I have learned for various things.

I thought that I would put up pictures of things I am currently working on.

I could talk about how I go about the process of building something.

I could talk about past projects.

I could do in progress pictures.

Current Projects
(or what I want to get done this week)

1. The puppet bodies for the school puppet production of the tales of Anansi.
This will be 8 bodies total and I need to see what scraps of kente cloth I have so the kids can make costumes for their puppets. I have a standard hand-puppet pattern I use with a few tweeks for smaller hands.

2. The Beginnings of the costumes for Farpoint. I have done most of my visual research. Now I need to find the right colors of cloth and make sure I have the right stuff for the accessories.

3. Do 10 cloth postcards and send them out to the postcard swap I joined. I am still doing some research as to how to make postcards out of cloth. I figure at 10 a week, I’ll be able to get this project done before Farpoint.

4. Plot out the steampunk critters I want to do next and cogitate on the one human one I need to do without a stand.

So those are my goals to have done by next Tuesday.

And again I am looking for input from y’all.

I am grateful for input.
