I am losing it! I have made so many fleece items for my piggies lol. Just tonight I made a whole new set of cuddle sacks, tunnels and hay bags because I was bored :doh::)) I’m sure I’m not the only one with this problem lol! Here’s one of the cuddle sacks! 1CC57468-C786-40AF-8334-97EBA2EEFAE2.webp
 
I like making cosies too, though I'm not quite to the point you are. XDThey look lovely, I'm sure the piggies enjoy them!:yahoo:I love the pattern it's so pretty! Maybe you could make an Esty shop?
Or you can always send some over here! :))

I had never sown until I got piggies! I taught myself on YouTube to be honest :) thank you! I love making them. My husband says I should open my own Etsy shop so I have something to do lol and something to support my spending habits for the girls :)) if shipping overseas wasn’t so expensive, I’d gift them to everyone. I would be embarrassed to post pictures of the plastic totes that have nothing but items I’ve made :doh:
 
I love making tunnels because the piggies love them. I want to make some snuggle sacks but I haven’t got around to it yet. I’m addicted to sewing pocket tissue holders, don’t ask me why but I just enjoy making them and they are my go to projects for when I get bored lol.

Tunnels are fun but they always take me the longest. But I can whip up cuddle sacks in like 10 minutes lol! They are super easy to make and the piggies love them for lap time :) I just looked up the tissue holders as I hadn’t ever seen one, they are little and cute!
 
I also love to sew although I don't have as much time to do it as I would like.
We have a few members on here who make a lot of their piggy stuff, but your lot in one evening is impressive!

Have you ever considered using your sewing skills to help out a charity?
I do a lot of sewing for charity, and I find it really rewarding.
Of course I still sew for family members and the piggies too, but sewing for a good cause is also fun, and I have met so many wonderful people.

Open a shop on Etsy! or sell them on Ebay or Amazon. I can't sew for anything. I am a nutty knitter but you can't do knitted stuff for piggies!
 
Fab! I went through a phase like that, but I've got so much stuff now, I had to stop. I've loads of fleece left over, so it will come around again. I love the pattern on the floral one.

Honestly I’ve never thought of that! It’s a wonderful idea. I am definitely going to call around and see who I could sew for! I sew for a friend and his 2 lady piggies and they love it :) honestly everyone else thinks I’m weird for having Guinea Pigs lol, so I end up storing loads of sewn piggy stuff!

My husband tells me I need to stop, but we see how well that worked lol. I can’t help it when I see cute patterns at the store! Thank you, I got it at Walmart!
