Felt Mini Cupcakes?


This morning I made a felt cupcake from one of Maddie's craft books. This was very easy to make. However, I think it looks like a flower instead of a cupcake.



To make this you will need felt, stuffing and cross stitch floss.
Next make a circle and icing pattern.


I also made little circles for cherries.


You will need two circles the same size. First decorate the top circle by stitching sprinkles (or a design) on top.


Next, stictch around the outside. Leave a gap for a very small amount of stuffing.


After the stuffing, finish stitching around the circle and pull the thread on both ends.

 Knot your thread and flip the sides down.



I added a magnet. You could make a pin cushion, broach or attach it to clothing.


Have a great day!




Hugs,

Finally Doing Something...



Hey Gang! I'm still trying to get off the lazy train. I've finally started some projects. Today I made a basket liner for the first time. I was very happy with how it turned out. This was an easy/quick project. I'll post the tutorial soon.






Do you like my wire baskets?
They are from an old deep freeze.

Have a restful night.

Few New Things


Hello All. Hope you've had a good week. Mine has been quite busy.
I've been trying to get some tasks completed around the house, especially outside. The rain has been constant. I did transplant some tiger lillies infront of the side porch.




(Then I looked-up and saw my next project.)


Maddie has also been busy.




Anyway...

I have gotten a couple of new (but old) things recently. I thought I'd share them with you. As always Mother found them for me.









Have a great week!
Hugs,
