As promised, here is the blanket that I built this Miss Piggy from. I think my total costs were about $40.

I gave her an arm rod on her left, it isn't in for the picture is all.

Ready to take her place on my wall beside her 'Kermie'. More pics of that later on.

Dressed! ;)

Coming down the home stretch. I am aiming to have this pig completed by the end of the weekend as I have other work related builds to get back to. I am loving my pig!

How is this going? Any updates?

I've managed to stitch here wig in and I glued her eyes on. I had a 'Farrah Fawcett' wig in my drawer and it was the best candidate compared to the few others that I had. I put some blush on her but you can't really see it in the pics. I may need to get something a little more contrasting. I...

Thanks! Tons of people want to build a Miss Piggy and the truth is that she is not an easy build; in fact, she is one of the hardest. I really hope that this method inspires others to try and build one. This method is very easy on the wallet. The hardest part is getting the shape of the head...

Well, a huge mess on my table but I now have a bust! Oof! All of my wild pig fantasies just came true!

I'm happy with the progress and the extremely low price point.

Thanks! You're right about second and third versions going faster but I won't have the time to do that until maybe next Christmas when I build something for me. I finished the stitching last and it looks so good, I'm almost sad that I didn't use Antron fleece. Oh well, I'm sure if I had it...

nice job! What did you use for the helmet?

This puppet build is really just meant to scratch a personal itch of mine....that sounds wrong. My goal is to have a nice piece to display with my collection and to maybe have fun with now and then. I also just simply need a pig and the good old $5000 plus price tag that some of us know of is...

I've done more stitching since these pics so I will update again later. Total costs for this so far has been less than $20 bucks! ;)

I carved out where her eyes go...I think it helps set them in better.

Then, just rounded them out. I covered her with the blanket and have been working on the stitching. The only thing that I did that you can't see is that I added some foam where her mouth meets her cheek to extend those areas on the sides of the mouth to hopefully get the flow properly. More...

Hi all, I'm finally building something that I hope is going to be a Miss Piggy. A year back, I built a practice head with blue foam for chair upholstery from Wal-Mart and hot glue. I used it as a test surface and tried some low grade home flocking which didn't turn out too well. I also built...

ACkH!! The photos aren't there! What a tease! ;)

Just meant in reference to me wondering if the snout was a bit big or if it was just the camera angles. I think it is looking really good!

I was wondering about the angles of that snout too! What will she be wearing?
