LTTS Puppet Theater - Nearly Finished!


Nearly finished the Little Things to Sew Puppet Theatre.  (Is theatre spelled wrong in the book, or am I just spelling it the Canadian way?)  I wanted to enter it into A Little Gray's Puppet Theatre linky party which is over tomorrow. 


This project wasn't too difficult to do and my husband feels part of the project because he bought the tension rod and the dowels for me.  Nice guy, isn't he.

I used some 4 inch charms to brighten up the front.  I didn't really want to do a house so this is what I came up with.  I'm not totally loving it, but it's too late to change it now. I was thinking that I could made another front for the bottom section to snap on to it for different scenes.

I'm not quite finished stitching all of the charms on yet.  You can see the pins I'm sure.


Now to find, or make some puppets.  Where can I find reasonably priced puppets?...

Thanks Jessica from A Little Gray for giving me the push to get this started and finished!

    Nothing like a deadline to get one to hunker down and get rolling on a project, eh? I love it! I think the charm squares look great against the black background.

    It looks FABULOUS!!! And yes, Ikea has VERY reasonably priced puppets... or you could probably even do a google search on puppet patterns and find a few of your own to sew up! :o)
