12 Days to the Beginning of DragonCon

And I have a weekend to myself to work since Peter and Caroline have gone off to ComiConn for today and are helping Ariel move tomorrow.

So to keep myself honest as to where I really am, I am going to post a picture of where I am at the beginning and the end of the day.

Here is where I am now.
Uploaded from the Photobucket iPhone App
(for the VI: on the left is a big old pile of fabric of many colors and on the right are green foam “skulls” and bodies for the puppets)

And tomorrow I will post a picture as to what I get done.

I did find my missing Doctor. He had run off. I also found Jack, Sarah Jane, and the Delgado version of the Master. Needed all those too.

Now I have to repair and build.

I am grateful that I found #6 because I was NOT looking forward to recreating that doggone coat.

I am so sorry to have to miss DragonCon, for the first time in 13 years. I was looking forward to learning a lot about puppet-craft, because I like to incorporate it in my teaching. You'll understand when I say I have been doubly depressed, with the con on one hand and unsuccessful job-hunting for a classroom on the other. Well, God heard my prayers and an interview came my way, and I was offered a classroom on the spot, completely unexpectedly. He aligned things in His own time to give me something else to think about instead of dwelling in disappointment. So, have a fantastic con, and I will look forward to hearing about it and seeing your pictures of your creations!
