The Spartan Art Club made these adorable gingerbread plushie ornaments to hang on the tree here at Northbrook Middle School! Art club members cut out their own gingerbread men-felt patterns. Next, they sewed the gingerbread men together using a blanket stitch and stuffed them with Poly-fil to make them plush. Finally, students added bows, eyes, piped frosting lines, etc. out of additional colored felt. Happy holidays from the Spartan Art Club!
