As part of my Christmas presents for this year I decided to make a plush toy of a friend's character. However, one of the fabrics I found to use for it was a super-soft baby blue minky, and I just had to purchase surplus to make other things with.

One of those other things would be this lil' octopus. The pattern was made by me (but really it's such a simple pattern that anyone could do it), and he's completely hand-sewn as I don't yet know how to use a sewing machine.

I'm probably going to make a few more octopi, and if enough people show interest I might sell them.
