Farrowing - Tina's Fabric Nook

This quilt block shows a bunch of pigs against a blue background. In the center of the block is a light skin colored large sow lying on her side. Underneath the sow are six pink piglets curled up and suckling on her. There are little curly-q tails at the end of each. On the sow's back is single pig facing the camera with his little two front legs visible. His face is drawn in with a black pen.

Block-A-Day 309 – A Litter Of Piglets

This is most often the pose you will find a fresh litter of piglets in. Mama pig lays on her side and softly grunts while the piglets tuck in.

This quilt block shows a tan squat building with a dark green thin angled roof. The opening, much like a dog house, is in the middle and is also dark green. The dark green pieces of fabric are stitched with a lighter green stitching. There are also lighter green stitches on the tan building to show the slats of wood. This is all against a light blue background.

Food is available for mama and an area is provided for piglets. A corner is blocked off with an opening piglets can get through but mama can’t. It’s equipped with heat lamps to keep the little ones warm.
