1. Cut out another piece and stick it in, and fill up the edge crack?

2. Cover it with gauze and then fill from there.

Any tips welcome. I have a few to do!

Thanks

Cut a piece of cardboard a little bigger than the hole. Punch a little
hole in the middle and tie a string to it. Put it behind the hole and
use the string to pull it up tight so it doesn't fall. Use plaster of
paris to fill in most of the hole. You might want to do it in two
batches; go around the just the edge at first to stick the cardboard,
then fill the center. Leave the surface rough and less than flush with
the rest of the wall. When the plaster is dry you can level and smooth
it with drywall mud.

You can do the whole thing with drywall mud, but filling most of it with
plaster of paris first is faster.
