This beautiful Starling Handbag was made by karin @ made by k.  If you follow that link you'll find a twin of the bag with a cross-body strap, which was made seamlessly and looks AWESOME.

Kelly posted this cute black Starling Handbag in her Ravelry account.  I can't wait to see the fabric she picked to line it. :)

I found this octopus, named Sybolt, posted on Cut Out + Keep.  I love the button eyes with the X and O stitching in the button holes.
