Description

If you are as impressed by the life of St. Francis as I am, you may like to tell children about this story with a hand puppet. The kids will be thrilled to hear of him preaching to the birds and more wonderful stories. Additionally, there is an inlay for his body which enables him to sit upright to watch over his protégés after playing.

The pattern will lead you step-by-step through the making process, including loads of detail photos. Additionally, you’ll find instructions for the more elaborate techniques used. His size fits a ladies hand. Of course the pattern for the birds is included!
