Hand-dyed wool: "Curlers" by In the Patch Designs
When I printed the pattern it printed as a full page so I re-copied it reducing it to 70% so it was just under 4" tall to fit the height of my fabric. I then made a buttonhole approximately 1.5" long (it has to fit a toonie!). To save time, I traced the outline of the piggy onto freezer paper, cut it out, layered my fabrics wrong sides together, lined up my freezer paper piggy with my buttonhole & ironed it on, stitched around it twice, removed the freezer paper, and then cut out the piggy.
Next time I would interface my buttonhole but other than that, I think this piggy is adorable!
