The fourth bag pattern from Waffle Patterns is Biggetje – Piggy Bank. As soon as I finished the duck, he was on the cutting table. This bag is again made from the same gray fabric as the whale. It also uses the same zipper and similar hardware. There’s a big bag in the middle and a smaller bag on the side.
As usual with Waffle Bags, I increased the size of the big bag by fair amount. To be able to put as many things in him as possible, I couldn’t fill it with stuffing as much. He looks a bit underfed because of that. If I bring him along, he’s a lot fuller and looks more like a pig. To combat the empty look, I did put foam pieces in his feet and his snout, so that those wouldn’t collapse.
For his tail, I didn’t have anything super curly, so I decided to use some of the stuff I’ve been using for hood strings. I also added a clip so that I can attach things to his bottom. The straps are interchangeable with all the other bags but he has since received a gray strap to match his hue better. I do think he’s very cute and he’s lovely to take on walks.
