JUST AN IDEA-I was wondering about those hand puppet designs, suedewsbury and Mops are digitizing. What I was wondering, for those of us who are limited to a small hoop 4x4 size, could just the faces be digitized to fit hoop? Then we would have to draw our bodies and stitch on a regular machine, but at least we could make some too, that is if my drawing improves (remember my skinny eared rabbit?haha)Maybe you could include a printout sheet of a full size drawing,somehow. I don't know how you do that though. I have another child on my bus that is having a b-day next month. She will be 9, I believe and she loves pandas. Just wondering if the digitizer thought this could work out?I myself am partial to mops' tiger. Just thought I'd put the idea out there-Toogie

I would like the head and arms only, myself, as I could fit two, top of head to top of head, in a 5x7 hoop with the body fabric hanging outside the hoop. This would be a more economical use of stabiliser, which I don't like to waste. Jan

It only fits a 5x7 sideways, see measurements in the picture.

It's easy enough to do the head of the tiger, not so sure of the elephant, the trunk may make it to large - I would have to have a look at that later.

A printout sheet for a body would have to be a pdf-file, which can't be uploaded, so that would mean emailing it to whoever want it and that takes a lot of time as it's not a one time thing, but requests are made not made all at once but over a (long)period of time.

Fitting just the head and arms in a 5x7 frame would be another possibility, and more work.

How do I dl just the top design? My machine won't accept ANYTHING that is over 4x4.

Ps I am sure it is a lot of work and I do appreciate the work you have already provided. Please ignore earlier idea and thank you anyway. Sincerely-Toogie

There are faces that will fit our hoop (4x4) already in DBC I have downloaded them and have plans to use them in just that fashion since I sew and improvise all the time, lol!
Have fun!!
