After 6 years...

I can finally report this gingerbread boy FINISHED!!!! I had a few minutes after school and decided to add the charms and assemble it. It is now ready for Christmas decorating time. :) Here are the details:
Sweetest Wishes from Lorri Birmingham
Started: 11/26/2000-11/28/2000
Picked Up With Just Border, blending filament, charms and assembly: 10/13/2006-10/24/2006

In terms of the 25-project challenge this is 3 of 25 finished.

As far as 2006 finishes, this makes #7 for the year. That is much better than last year when I had about 3 finishes for the year. It is also a good number as the majority of my projects are HUGE!!

Edited to add: I just looked at the picture and noticed dark spots. The fabric kept fraying and I couldn't trim anymore so I added a little fabric glue. It was still wet when I took the picture. Looking at my ornament now, you can't even tell there were a few dots of glue. Sorry to have posted the picture when it looked less than perfect. I was tired yesterday. :(
