Making Puppets

Ann with some of her creations

The Friday after Christmas, Ann was assigned to "Special Projects." She was working next door to me in the new laundry finished this last Spring for the cleaning of Nauvoo Pageant costumes. 

Lf to Rt Sister Perkes from Logan, Ann, and
Sister Murray from Canada

She and two other sisters were making puppets 


to be used during the pre-pageant activities this next summer. Each child that attends the puppet show gets to select a puppet to keep.

This project has been going for several weeks with different sisters being assigned for a day instead of a historic site.

The puppets are made from socks. Those making the puppets attach materials provided by the pageant people to make the various creatures and/or faces. Six hundred puppets have been made for next years pageant.
