it is based on a pattern in a book the title of which escapes me - found at our public library. it used up some of an old sheet i was given and a seemingly endless supply of linen we have kicking around. and it has been named petunia.
more pics here and here.
thanks for all the comments yesterday. sometimes i feel like i am the only one. now i don't. it is greatly appreciated!

Very nice. My handwork continues to be put to shame.
"Seemingly endless supply of linen"?!? What a nice problem to have :)
thanks melissa!
it is a nice problem. a perk of my husband's job. we get a lot of discards. 2 almost full rolls of linen currently sitting at the end of our bed!
Very cute! Looks like you're great at softies.
BTW, I think I found a softie pattern for our little swap. :)
if you ever want to trade that linen for something else, let me know!!
i love this pig! the raw edges at the snout are great. i have a pig that is remarkably similar waiting to be stuffed (it's also linen with raw edges).
i love the raw linen edges on your softies stephanie and was thinking of them when it came to the snout:)
let me know when you need some linen...!
Petunia is gorgeous! Well done, old chap!
That's a gorgeous pig.
: )
Mighty fine pig.
thanks everyone!
Tracy! I love, love, love your piglet! I've got to say, one of my favorite softies I've seen in awhile. I love the look of the linen with the raw edges. it is adorable.
Would you be interested in swapping for some of your linen? I was just looking for some on ebay...
I could swap stoneware buttons, pendants in my etsy shop, ribbon (from the outlet)...let me know. I'd love to swap!
This piglet is wonderful - so much character!!!
