“The giant octopus is a fun project that is sure to make a great gift for a child or just an octopus loving person in your life. The pattern is easy to follow but does take some time and quite a bit of stuffing. The suggested options for stuffing are creative including fabric scraps! What a fun way to get rid of scraps!”

This pattern makes a fabulous and large octopus. It has lots of options to customise your octopus to your preferences. Although quite a time intensive pattern the result is well worth it. As long as you cut accurately and follow the instructions this is a very beginner friendly pattern.

This project took a week, but so worth it! My octopus turned out so cute! I think I am going to put her in the county fair! If you have a Cricut, cutting the triangles is so much easier. I also used iron-on vinyl for her face. Be creative with this project and have fun!

A fun pattern that the kids like! Like it states, it’s a giant Octopus, so reserve enough time, fabric and filling. Because there are so many pieces, I’d also recommend accuracy when cutting and sewing, but if you follow the tutorial it’s an easy sew!
