I see your problem if you can find no one to resew the costumes for you consider a product that is called "Liquid Stitch" areas too small for machine can be reached by this product It is permanent and washable. Ask at the sewing supply and material store or online. Suze In a message dated 5/8/2008 3:45:14 A.M. Pacific Daylight Time, seankeohane-AT-aol.com writes: Hello, all! I am in the midst of restoring a 5 foot wide wooden Guignol-style proscenium for my newest (widest!) puppet theatre. I'm hoping to have that job done in the next few weeks, and then one day everyone can see it. But... I have some lovely little puppets to play in it who happen to have rather long arms. (These are smaller puppets than I have been using.) I am going to try to extend my fingers, as it were, with tubing in the puppet arms, but if that doesn't really allow good manipulation, the arms and costumes will probably have to be cut and re-sewn. Sewing is definitely not one of my limited talents, and I don't have a sewing machine which might have made the task easier in any event. Is there anyone in the New York City area who might be able to volunteer for seeing if the shortening of the costume sleeves can be done, and, if so, doing it, or helping me to do it? My fear is that I will destroy the costumes in which the puppets are dressed, and they are nice costumes!
