Pattern this baby quilt please

I've hit a wall on this one & need pattern suggestions for this fabric. I have 2 yards of the cupcakes, 2 yards of the pink flowers on white and 1/3 yard of the rest. Any ideas on how to use the cupcakes as the focal fabric? If you have other ideas I can use it as the backing. I give up!

Some initial thoughts- I could make a simple patchwork background and appliqué a few cupcakes randomly tossed...or add a row of cupcake fabric like this:

Help, I'm overthinking this.

I really like the square in square. You could use the cupcake fabric as the center and the various colours as the corner triangles. I think it would look less busy with some (possibly) solid coloured sashing. Your fabrics are beautiful.

All 3 are cute, but I like the first one the best, not sure why....

Both are pretty. Have you considered the BQ2 ? It will focus on cupcakes as the main block.

Forgo to say the last one is my favorites!

I like the first one best, but any of them would work.

Pattern using a focus(cupcake) square alternating with 4-or 9-patch or alternate HST or an hourglass.
I have these ones bookmarked.

Warm Wishes is a nice pattern for a focus fabric quilt.

I like all 3 of your ideas, the first one is my favorite. the BQ pattern is another great option for your fabrics with the cupcakes being the large square in this pattern.
