Stripey piggy in a stripey T-shirt

So the other day in the pub, Steph said.....'can you make a soft toy for Hamish's new nephew? Maybe a pig?'

And I said yes, probably.

And this is how it turned out.....

I searched through Pinterest and etsy, and ended up with shape below.

I had a bit of an issue deciding on the fabric because of the whole pigs-are pink-but-pink-is-for-girls problem. But some pink pinstripe shirt fabric was squished right into the bottom corner of my stash and it did the job nicely I think, once I did the once over with the old iron.

Amy had the great idea of using a drain cleaner thingy for his tail, and luckily I also had one of them left over from the craftclub challenge. Pretty darn cute.

Oink snort!
