1. 

   

   First of all you will need to make a template for the cup. You will need a circle [template] for the bottom and a long rectangle strip [template] that will fit around the circumference of the circle. Take a piece of felt in the colour that you would like the cup. Then draw out the shapes from the templates on to the felt.

2. 

   

   Take a piece of thread in a colour matching the felt and using a hemming stitch sew the rectangle along the circumference of the circle.

5. 

   

   Find a piece of foam that will fit inside comfortably.

6. 

   

   Now take the felt in the colour that you want the cupcake to be and cut out a large circle [template].

7. 

   

   Wrap the felt circle around a piece of foam making sure that it fits nicely.

8. 

   

   Place this inside the cup you made earlier and pin in place. Sew the cupcake in place using a running stitch.

9. 

   

   Now cut out an icing shape [template] out of the third piece of felt. Find some thread that matches the colour. Sew the icing to the top of the cupcake using a hemming stitch.

10. 

    

    Find a small red piece of foam. Sew this to the top of your cupcake. This is the cherry.

11. 

    

    I sewed little beads to the cupcake to look like sprinkles. You can add eyes or whatever you want to decorate it. I choose not to add eyes because I would be using it as a pin cushion and it would make me feel cruel.
