Builder:
Juli Van Eizenga
Pattern:
The Glorified Sock Puppet Pattern
Character: "This is Fred Fundleton. He is an accountant for a large company providing medical equipment to senior citizens. He is severely allergic to dust, milk, nuts, cats and, he claims, attractive women. Due to the allergies, he speaks in a highly congested voice most of the time.
Fred enjoys doing number puzzles (Expert Sudoku is child’s play), playing World of Warcraft, building model airplanes and eating a good pastrami sandwich. He also has an unholy obsession with Rachael Ray, whose perkiness both annoys and intrigues him." - Juli
Technical: "Fred was made from the Glorified Sock Puppet Pattern with no significant modifications. His eyes are made from ping-pong balls and his body is regular fleece from the fabric store. The shirt is hand-made. His hair is a piece of fur fabric and his glasses were bought at a craft store.
Fred is my first puppet ever and my first attempt at sewing. I have always loved puppets and look forward to making more of them!" - Juli
