My name is Carol "CLaroL the CLown" from Windsor, ON Canada. I've been twisting since 1987, and am a clown full time, twisting a restaurants, parties and anywhere I can get work. Gee this sounds like a first date conversation -maybe even an AA confession. But, let me get to it. Dan the Balloon Boy is in search of a new Pig Body...not for himself but his pig sculpture. I make a pig head via a teddy bear head with an apple twist for the nose. For the pig I turn the ears front to back instead of side to side for the bear. Now for the body. After making a neck and two front feet (two bubbles lock twisted at the neck) I use a three bubble roll through for a "pot bellie" add two more lock twisted legs and voila. "This Little Piggy". If you don't understand the three bubble roll through check out the Love Birds in Marvin's Book Balloon magic on Page 94. You've got to make the legs fairly long so it will stand, but practice will help you figure out the proportions. Best Fishes! Carol
