Meet Corey and Lilly the Octopus

I have received another review and pictures from Corey, a pattern tester for the octopus.

Here is what she says about the octopus:
"The Fleece I used was left over from a jumper I made my daughter last winter. I choose a berry sweet flannel to go with it, as I was in the process of making my girl a reversable tote for her dance stuff, and really fell in love with the fushia and green fabric. so....in the photos you'll see that the octopus matches her jumper, and her new tote. :) so fun. She is very pleased. I really enjoyed making this octopus, that my sugar has named, Lilly. It was my first time making a stuffed animal. I am so excited to make more for christmas presents."

Here is a little more about Corey and what she does. Pop over to her place and say hi if you like :)

"I have been blogging over at http://livingandlovingeveryminuteofit.blogspot.com/ for 2.5 years, and I am an avid photographer who goes through bouts of crazy crafting several times a year. I enjoy anything from scrapbooking, to sewing, to knitting, to anything else I see and think, "I can make that!" :) I'm a working mother of one. My Sugar Bear is 4.5 years old and it my main source of inspiration. I adore making things for her. I have recently been dabbling in the world of re-fashioning clothing. Here is one of my favs. "
