A Pig in Clover

Well, I made the decision to put the bright green background, I liked the way it changed the colours of the collage.

I put the head and body onto yet more adhesive interfacing and sewed over all the bits of fabric.

Then I pinned and sewed it to the background which had a layer of cotton batting under it and a calico backing. (I won't use calico again, it is rather boring even as a background.)

The pig was sewn onto the layers and I quilted a rough clover leaf pattern to hold it together.

The border is on, all I have to do now is put on a hanging sleeve - later.

Photos taken at different times of the day, mostly evenings, give very different images!
