Making Puppets



I’ve been a huge Jim Henson’s fan all my life, from the “Muppets” all the way to “Sesame Street”, and I always wanted to have my own puppet to play with. So I made this simple puppet, just to get started. It’s a blue dog I named “Chicho” (which is a word often used in some Spanish speaking countries to refer to dogs, in a childish way).

I used the sewing machine to assemble the body and the ears, and simply glued the eyes, the nose and the cheeks. I hope it inspires you to create your own felt friends!

Sugary hugs!
