Here's some photos of what I have sewed so far, by hand.
Materials used: Fleece, cotton, wadding, needle.

They each took me a few days due to the fact I sew by hand. My wrist kills afterwards but I just love them ;)
DSCF3495.jpgThis picture contains a orange and pink padded tunnel which is triangle shaped, a blue cuddle cup and a pigloo pad which is orange on one side and pink on the other.

DSCF3496.jpgHere are all my items that I have made so far together in one picture. A cupcake & hearts design burrow bag with a matching cuddle cup cosie, a blue cuddle cup, a pigloo pad and the triangle tunnel.
DSCF3492.jpgThis is just another shot of the tunnel :)

Hope this encourages some of you to learn to sew. I'm terrible but trying to teach myself :)
They're so soft, comfy and bouncy for piggies to sleep on/in and really gentle on their soft feet!

@MooMoosMomma: Thanks! I used wadding which I think is called batting is America.
The tunnel was more difficult, because I made that up myself, and I filled it with two layers of wadding first and it didn't keep shape
so I had to unpick it and put four layers of wadding in.
But that seems to make everything be soft and squishy as well as firm :)

@YourSoJelly: ahaha you're too nice ;) My wrist hurt for like 2 days after that tunnel xD
I'm still teaching myself how to sew so hopefully I'll have more things to show soon!
