Now look here! Have finished making octopuses for the octopus project, just a 100 photos to edit and some kind of online exhibition to organise... which I have no idea how I'm doing it! Let's see how that one pans out #needlefeltingartist #needlefeltedoctopus #nowlookhere #moustache #makingitupasigoalong https://www.instagram.com/p/CQyMLDhjwDW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Weekend jobs! Photographing 90 octopuses ready for shipping! Need to edit them too, thus project has felt like a marathon. After the last year I'm burnt out but today my studio buddies reminded me of the studio motto: "Done is better than perfect" Sometimes you just have to do the thing rather than perfecting it... time to stop tweaking details and get one with it! #whatsinthebox #weekendwork #octopuspile #needlefeltingartist #needlefeltedoctopus https://www.instagram.com/p/CQT7kKwjqlN/?utm_medium=tumblr

It's World Oceans Day (and pride month) do here's a rainbow of octos! I'm still working hard on the octo project, trying my hardest to get them finished before the end of the month. I'll start shipping them soon as I feel its time for them to start their journey into the world. I need a new project to energise me ... something silly Watch this space! #worldoceansday #needlefeltingartist #needlefeltedoctopus https://www.instagram.com/p/CP2nzH5D4sa/?utm_medium=tumblr

Another weeks worth of work! All octos this week as the penguins and wedding cake topper I made have already flown to their new homes! Slow week but I'm trying to focus on getting these octopuses made! #octopus #needlefeltingartist #needlefeltedoctopus #sweetietub #whatsinthebox #weekswork https://www.instagram.com/p/CO5lW69joRA/?igshid=1qqhxvr5y98iw

I'm fishing for compliments... this guy is just fishing for plastic! Tuesdays are Octodays from now on untill I make 100 of them!⁠ ⁠ I'm a third of the way thru the project and hoping to have some form of exhibition in June⁠ ⁠ #octopus #needlefeltedoctopus #saveouroceans #plasticnot fantastic #fishingoctopus https://www.instagram.com/p/COc3qyuA9_B/?igshid=12s73s1soyf4q

I'm still on Octo duty so not back in the world yet! Am hoping to break the back of this project and find mojo soon. I've also decided to rebrand so am busy thinking big thoughts, fiddling with designs and getting baffled by all the advice out there! These last 5 years have been a difficult ride for me and I've spent a long time just responding to events rather than being in control and driving things forward. I'm hoping that I can get things back on track this year. I still feel a little like I have a octopus wrapped around my head most days! #octopus #octopusvspenguin #octobrain #needlefeltingartist #needlefeltedoctopus #needlefeltedpenguin https://www.instagram.com/p/CNmYLZMDIAu/?igshid=1tcf1n0bgiukr
