Felt half eaten gingerbread man

Christmas crafting is in full swing at the moment. I’ve been meaning to make a felt half eaten gingerbread man from Elsie Marley’s pattern for ages and finally got round to it this week. I love the vintage ric rac and used snowflake brads for his buttons. I think it turned out rather well and will look great on our Christmas tree.

This is my monthly make for November

    This is so adorable! I love it! Gingerbread men in our house are always at least half (if not all the way) eaten.

    Loved this guy as soon as I saw him. How super sweet (no pun intended). Love a twist on the traditional.
