What was your inspiration?

The octopus is my daughters favorite animal, an she's extended that enthusiasm to other sea creatures.

What are you most proud of?

While I used patterns for most of the items, I drew the fish myself. (Not a big deal generally, but I seriously can't draw.)

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

It helps to listen to appropriately sea-themed music while you work. Octopus' Garden by the Beatles worked quite well for me.

Your sea flora and fauna are wonderful, and I love your choice of fabric.

I LOVE your angel fish! I think you need to reconsider that "I can't draw" thing. Adorable!
