FOAMIE SUITS


                Here is the process we went through to make the linings for the foamie puppets: 


                                                                     Part A: SEWING

Sewing headliner foam on
the industrial sewing machine.
Pattern for Lars' torso cut out of headliner foam.


Sewing up Rose's legs.



Part B: GLUING    

Using spray adhesive to stick down the edges of the headliner foam. 

Protecting the fabric on the inside edge of the lining from spray adhesive with masking tape. 
Lars' foam lining, ready to sculpt onto.


Part C: ACCOUTERMENTS
Rose's suit is made like overalls, so her lining
has these adjustable buckles at the shoulders.
