In between the eyes it looks like a nose with a mouth just under it. Then went to 2nd poto and saw a pig, so went back up to 1st and finally seen pig.LOL I'm old so guess my eyes are playing tricks on me. It is going to be darling. Keep it up. BTW it would help my poor old eyes with a curly tail.HeHeHE

I couldn't see a pig in the first picture at all and am happy someone else didn't either. The second pic is better! Both need backstitched curly tails and feature enhancement of some kind. I had the same trouble with some bears I tried to make. Keep at it and it will only get better. Good luck.

Like them. They look like pigs just need a curly tail.

you could just do a curly zig-zag satin stitch for the tails.

Your pigs are wonderful. There is no sign of an artistic struggle going on here - they're great. If you like 3 dimensions on a quilt, the tails could be crocheted spirals, other than that, I have no suggestions. They'll be perfect whatever you decide.

I agree they look like pigs and are really cute. I also like the idea of the embroiderd curly tail. That would be so cute.

I love them. They are sooo cute!!! When I first read your topic title I thought you were talking about PIGS (projects in grocery sacks) LOL I am glad I looked, my hubby grew up on a hog farm and we love little piggies.
