Hand Puppets in-the-hoop

These simple in-the-hoop hand puppets can be made from any fabric using your embroidery machine. I like them with fleece and quilters cotton prints.  But terry cloth or felt look great too.  What would you do with them? Make a set for a baby shower?  Task the kids to create a puppet show?  Why not make a bath puppet for yourself to serenade in the shower?  It's none of my business what you make - just have some fun with these new designs. 😁 They are one of the easiest in the hoop projects to make! They are good practice if you're learning applique because the satin border stitches are thick - to cover up your cutting boo-boos.
