“We need four hugs a day for survival. We need eight hugs a day for maintenance. And we need twelve hugs a day for growth.” – Virginia Satir⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

How many hugs did you have today?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just that you know, these cute monsters might be “just” stuffed animals, but they take hugs thing very seriously. 12 a day? No problem. They can do even better than that!

The first charming stuffed monster I made when my two little boys went through the cute monster phase. They loved friendly, colorful, happy, little monsters, and at that time, we made so many of them.

With their big eyes, they are aware of every opportunity to play and are proudly showing off a big happy smile with their first milky teeth. They are not so different from my own two little monsters when their eyes sparkle full of fun ideas.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They might be small but have a big heart and the secret power— they will make sure no scary monsters will visit their human best friend.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is a remake of the pattern I did back in 2015, and I made it much, much easier for you to make. Yey!⠀⠀
