Ahh..........Finger Puppets

My felt stash is pretty big.  I always save the snippets and sections left over after cutting other patterns out, the bits and pieces are always useful.  

Well I did Pinterest searches for finger puppets to see what others are doing. Some are very nice, some are super simplistic.  Most all of them seem to be HANDSEWN, which is fine for tiny items but takes too much time in my opinion.  I looked up a basic fox image and duplicated that myself on the sewing machine.  Yes, it was a hassle to do three stitches and turn, down seven, etc.  But the LOOK is so much cleaner!  

Trimming everything was a breeze too.  And for the fox I added a tail with white tail tip. The image I saw online looked easy to duplicate without much fuss.

Though I left off the ribbon 'arms', made the ears black with a white inner part, and added the tail, as mentioned.  6mm beads for the eyes and nose were added after the  fox was done.  They went on with black thread.  Super  quick, I made 2 foxes and might make gray wolves and a few cats too.  These can be sold as sets, or used as ornaments or package tie details.

I have to admit, the foxes are pretty sharp looking.
