The Goat

 


The next story book puppet is a goat with a drum.  The puppet itself didn't take long to make, but I spent some time thinking and planning beforehand! If I made it again, I'd make his face a bit smaller, but that's a minor point, not enough to make me redo it. The horns are made from handmade felt. I puzzled for a while to work out how to sew them on at the right angle. The drum is made from a pill bottle. The student teacher will paint it to resemble the picture in the book.

  2. Your puppet is great. Warm memories come to my mind. My mother also sewed puppets for stories a long time ago.
