Pink Pig Fishing on Tuesday

This week's Tiny Tuesday block is brought to us by Sally at The Objects of Design.  Thanks for a fun block,  Sally!

I just loved turning these little bits and pieces...


into a tiny pink piggy!


But then, these fish came swimming along, demanding to get in on the fun.


I'm not much of a fisherman (or should that be fisherwoman?), but Ms. Oinker caught these two quite easily!


Here they are, joining their tiny pink buddies for the month of July!


And in other project news, I finished up the last two blocks I needed for my Floral Sawtooth Stars quilt.


I started with 11 Sawtooth Stars in 12.5 inch, 9.5 inch, 6.5 inch, and 4.5 inch sizes.


Then I made 9 alternate blocks that are all versions of 4 patches.

All of the blocks finish at 12 inches.

All that's left is to figure out the layout and get these blocks sewn together!

Love the eye placement on your fish! At least your pig looks like a pig. Mine is just a porky blob -- bad fabric choices. I hope to do over this weekend.

Your pig is super cute, and so are the fish. Love all the stars, too. Have a cool Saturday!

Miss pink Piggy is adorable! We are not much of fishermen/women either but we tried this past week while on vacay at a lake. We each caught a sunny but was to small to keep. I was hoping for a bass again, but didn't happen. Good thing we had enough food along anyway!

Your pig turned out so cute. Love the fabric. I had a bit of a problem with some triangle points. I may try again, if I get a hour or two that is uninterrupted. I two noticed the flower fabric fish and the eye! Happy coincidence or planned?

The pig is so cute. It reminds me of the costume I made for my youngest when she was a few months old. I had a pink long John, bought darker pink socks, and then made a Brest plate and hood to mimic Piglet. Her older sister had a Pooh costume, so that started their paired Halloween costumes for the next 8 years.

I love Sawtooth Star quilts. They are so versatile. I've never seen a Sawtooth Star quilt I didn''t like.

This pig can fly. She flew right into my heart!!!

Your piggy is so flat and tidy. I find mine is a bit lumpy in all the wrong places!
