Tips for sewing a cupcake pillow

Basting the pieces to the batting will give the cupcake more body, but you can make it without batting if you prefer.

Use a wide zig zag stitch to applique the Frosting Top to the Cupcake Bottom. Teresa uses a 5mm wide and 5mm long zig zag. 

Use a straight stitch to attach sprinkles, making sure to backstitch at each end.

Trim batting slightly smaller than the fabric to make point/curve matching easier.

Use Original Poly-Fil for a firmer pillow and Royal Silk Poly-Fil for a softer pillow.
