My Softie For Shelby...

I posted about this earlier today, Softies for Shelby.
Well today I've been making my Softie. I first saw this pattern over on Nikki's blog near Christmas, which was done by Elsie Marley. I really liked this little bitten Gingerbread Man, he is supposed to be a hanging decoration. However, I've blown the pattern up and the one I've made today is approximately eleven inches high.
Now I'm not the greatest needle woman, but I was really pleased with how he's turned out. I was worried about using buttons, so instead I've used soft little flowers that I've sewn on.
I hope Shelby likes him...
