WOW! The gals at JABC really put together a nice kit with great materials and instructions, but I'm a little sewing challenged! Turning that flat wool felt into a 3D cupcake is a little like putting a square block in a round peg. But I finished them in one afternoon (even tho I should be working on stuff for market) and I'm proud of the results. And, maybe, I'll tuck in a little chocolate to go with the cupcakes (if I can brave the new snowstorm)!
BTW - daughter Sarah is an art teacher and a painter. She's working on a "yummy" series of food paintings, including some beautiful cupcakes. Check out her cupcake art at www.sarahewain.com. They're a treat for the eyes!
Our other daughter Alison is similarly cupcake-obsessed. She's a food blogger who has her share of cupcake experiences documented on her site. Check our her current cupcake post @ www.gimmesomeoven.com. YUM!
What a creative family - you all make such wonderful things! I have to say that I love you being such a "proud mama"!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny that us cross stitchers are mostly "sewing challenged". I can't sew a lick. And I also like to think of myself as a decent quilter as well.
