A.Q. Cupcake Quilt Block #1

This is a series of quilt block swaps featuring cupcakes. You can assemble your blocks to make a quilt, or feature each one individually on placemats, napkins, pillow tops, tote bags, or whatever you decide!

You will send ONE 8 1/2" square block to your partner.
The block will feature a cupcake, either pieced, paper pieced, or appliqued.
You may use any color background you like except for solid white or solid cream.
You must ALSO add at least one dimensional element to your cupcake. This might include (but is not limited to):

• beading
• embroidery
• fabric paint
• buttons
• decorative stitching with metallic threads
• ric-rac

This is just a quilt block, so no batting or backing is necessary.

Do your best work.
Follow SB guidelines, send on time, and communicate with your partner if necessary.
Don't forget to rate promptly!
