    Coonie, don't be embarrassed!  I can only imagine what mine is going to look like.  I ordered some fabric off the internet cuz I couldn't find any local that I liked.  I found pink ribbon fabric and will make my banana bandanna pennant out of that.   Problem is, I don't sew well!  The good thing is we are making them!!

    Coonie the piggies get to lay around all summer and enjoy strawberries and all kinds of good stuff... don't worry they are very happy pigs right now.  And- um -- It is getting so that I really like knowing what is in my food and where it is coming from these days.

    Yes, Elaine.

    I do get paid for singing piggy raps.

    Honest-to-goodness.

    One of my biggest hits, actually!

    (That's exactly what my children think, BTW -- LOL!!)

    I think I'm just going to send my materials for the banana pendentWink Checkum.  You can staple it on to the string.  Congrats on being a celeb. 

    How are the piggies doing?  I think they should be named Coonie and Sharon51, THEN lets see how they taste in the fall.......hehehehehe.  (And please, could I be the skinnier pig?Laughing)

    Might as well send you mine too then Checkum. I also thought that if you took the bandana and folded it over the twine and just stapled below the fold it would be a very impressive banner! What d'ya think?

    Checkum, it should be easy! You just have to bring a stapler. That way you won't have any frayed ends or stiff banners. Are you serious or kidding? Sharon...whad'ya think?

    Faith... my gs loves songs for his age soooooo much!  We gave him a MP3 player for Easter and Dh loaded it with all kinds of children's songs... lol  It's so funny when he puts his headphones on and his little head is keeping time with the beat... 

    Checkum's pigs...lol

    Aharon, you crack me up!  You want to be the skinnier pig!!  I would too!

    Checkum, what if we folded the fabric over and along the top edge, put string or yarn or something that is longer than the penant so that you could just tie them together?  Does that make sense?  I tried to draw it below. LOL!!

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++   String

    OOoooooo, good idea Linda! I just hate cutting into this bandana, as when it is folded corner to corner it makes a very impressive flag!

    Barb, you can just fold the bandana over the string.    See how talented I am.  6 years as a Boyscout Den leader has taught me how to sew without actually sewing!  LOL

    Okay, well between pigs and pennants I've been feeling a lot of pressure.Wink  So I took the flippin material and cut a triangle!!  Now DH has his acrylic paints out to see how we can paint my name on (in VERY small print:))  Next I've got to put this (hideous) bright pink trim on it.  So I guess I'll haul out the sewing machine.........can't find the staplerTongue out  I wish I could post pics because I think it'll be good for a laugh.  Thankfully I'll have to do it later since I have to go to the the MT this morning.  Then my arm will be wrapped till tomorrow so no sewing for a  while.  Please stand by for updates.....hahahahaha.

    I must confess, I eat pork tooEmbarassed.  Home grown would be VERY tastey and WAY healthier.

    Arnie, I don't like seeing grass near a beach. To me, it's either one or the other! In that picture SOMEONE has to mow the lawn. Now, I LOVE mowing the lawn, but not by a beach! Go figure....
