Here is there tutorial on the cupcakes.
Start by downloading this free cupcake wrapper template.... or make your own. The outside circle measures 6.5" and the inner circle measures 3.75".
I prefer to cut out the pattern, discard it, and then use the matrix as a template so that I can see exactly where I am cutting on my paper pattern.
After you cut out your paper, you can trim the outer edge with decorative scissors if desired, I used Fiskars scallop scissors on mine. Glue where the glue tab is and set this aside.
Next you will need a 7" circle of fabric. You don't have to be exact. I used a lid to a tin I had, but a salad plate is about the right size too.
You are going to stitch around this with a running stitch. It should look like this.
When you get to where the ends meet up, pull them together to gather the stitching in. Before it's all the way gathered, fill your cupcake with stuffing.
When it feels full enough, gather the thread tightly and knot it off.
Turn this over, and hot glue it inside the wrapper you have already made.
Then you just need to decide how to top it off. Place any kind of topper on the top like a flower or a cute fake cherry or which ever you desire.
I loved them and look like fun for any event.
