Finished my second octoplushy! I'm not giving them names, that's up to the recipients. (Hopefully! I hope the parents like them enough, they're perhaps not very cuddly...) These are both for newborn babies, one of whom can be born any day now!

This one has some thicker tentacles, as well as a little bit more #sashiko to spice it up. The face is notably different, too. I think I like the embroidered face more, but this one has a certain manic charm.

Looks great! I know my nephew would definitely enjoy a plushy like this, lil man really likes octopi.

I saw that on the site earlier today. How did you find it to sew? Beginner friendly?

Looks great
