I hung up the quilt to see if it needed some delinting. I was checking the front, and Molly volunteered to check the back.
The best part of the quilt is the tilted block as a series of hilla...an idea I stole from Gayle of Mangofeet. I will be so happy when she returns to her blog so I can steal more of her ideas, no matter how demented.
Also, I'm glad I gave each piglet an eye. Unfortunately, I only thought of that at the end, so I had to perform surgery on each piglet, cutting out half a patch and inserting a piglet-sized eye.

Glad you gave the pigs eyes also, but an large amount of work to do! Result looks great!
I think the piglets are also quite happy to have eyes, what with traversing such hilly country and a predator in their midst...
Such a wonderful fun quilt! So much to see and each pig is cuter than the one before :)
Is this a new quilt? I think I remember seeing this quilt in a Manual show in Virginia a few years ago. I absolutely loved it and was so glad you put your blog address in the quilt label as I was able to find this incredibly amusing blog of yours. Thanks so much for doing this.
It’s a good thing those pigs have eyes now. No more worry about a citywide traffic jam when they start running up and down the hills. A really cute finish!
Oh how fun! I love entering quilts in the fair, although I’m not entering anything this year. Your pigs are going to fit right in at the livestock barn. Oh wait...
Love the piggy quilt!!! Definitely in agreement with you on the subject of the hills, they add such a lot of movement.
Also I'm pleased you mentioned Gayle, I was wondering why nothing had come along from her for ages and ages, is she going to come back? Did you come home with a good stack of fabrics??
Oh my gosh!!! I bet everyone stops to look at it!! so adorable!
