March Stitch Along!

We've been big fans of Corvus Tristis' work ever since we saw her octopus pattern pop up on Giddy99's Duvet Project, so we were very excited when Corvus kindly offered to design a free pattern for Feeling Stitchy and we were even more excited when we saw what it was!

Feeling Stitchy Octopus by Corvus Tristis

We're going to be stitching this guy here at Feeling Stitchy for our March Stitch Along, so watch out for more posts this month as I stitch this guy up and hopefully feature pics from the Embroidery Pool, as you guys stitch along to! Make sure to tag any March stitch along pictures with the tag MarchStitchAlong, so we can find you!

So, you're going to be wanting to know how to get hold of this pattern, right? Corvus has not only provided us with this lovely guy above, she has also provided us with a whole alphabet and a blank octopus, so you can use the alphabet to stitch whatever word you like under your octopus. We'd love to see what ever words you use, just remember to use that tag! You can download the .pdf featuring all the pattern variations here and the patterns will also be up on the Embroidery pool. So, a big massive thank you to Corvus for designing this pattern for us!

    Wow, this pattern is amazing! I'm going to do some serious thinking as to where I'll stitch this one on, but definitely in on the game!

    I can't wait to see what comes out of this! I really want to do the "hello!" variation myself, and hang it in my entryway, but I just started a new job and don't have much time just yet. We'll see!

    I cannot help it, this pattern makes me giggle. We are a big fan of ocean documentaries, and octopuses are among our favorite creatures. They're simply hilarious. Check out the youtube videos of the little guy who likes to sleep in bottles.

    This is going to be so much fun!

    So glad to see all the stitchalong excitement - it is such a fun pattern. Yay!

    Nicky, please let us know if you continue to have trouble getting the pattern. It may be a matter of refreshing the page or just waiting a wee bit for it to load up (it was a bit slow for me).
