August's contribution is a completely one-of-a-kind quilt that I started working on during Christmas 2012. I had seen this calendar at Hobby Lobby on clearance for 2013 with different cupcakes. Whitney stole my calendar, but the idea for a cupcake applique remained with me. It took me several attempts to get my two contrasting pieces of the cupcake shape to fit together into a nice shape. I made a dozen different appliques, and then decided to use most of them into a quilt.
The material for the quilt top is completely repurposed from other projects. I purchased the blue floral contrast for the front piece and the Flower Power print for the back piece to tie this together.

Fabric Flowers


Well, it took me awhile to finally learn to make these, and now I think it is the coolest thing ever. What a great way to use up bits and pieces of lots of things: lace, ribbon, fabric, beads, pins.
