stitched puppets from the lane county historical museum
Tonight, for your consideration, an assortment of puppets from the children's puppet stage at the Lane County Historical Museum. From flappers to hippies, settlers to bar maids, there are probably close to two dozen of these carefully stitched and costumed puppets spread out on a black shelf, out of sight for anyone but those who peek behind the curtain. Waiting to be discovered like starfish in a tide pool.
I'm not sure who pieced the puppets; I didn't notice any markings, but it must have been someone very dedicated.
Patterns for individual dolls (including costumes) are available in the gift shop for under $6.00.
(p.s. you can make these photos bigger by clicking on them . . . but you probably knew that!)
