Got to get that magazine. Now which one is it? :?
I really like the cake! Yummmmmmm. :lol:

Took a second or two to realize it wasn't real!! Would make a great pin cushion. :D

Thanks everyone :) It is a pin cushion, this one is filled with rice because i wanted to finish it...I ordered crushed walnut shells for the next one :)

CUTE!!!! :D :D I am going to have to go find this magazine!!!!!

What you aren't going to crack walnuts for yourself??!! :roll: Cracking walnuts or hickory nuts is a popular winter pasttime here!! :D :D

I thought about making myself one of these, but I better wait until I can make one as great as yours.

But wait...I would only get hungry for cake then.

Kyia

yummy yum...cut me a big piece :D
It's really pretty would look pretty just sitting out on a plate with a fork, as a decortation. You do great work!

Isn't there a link for it in Links and Resource?

terri, I dont think there is a link. But here is the thread that talks about the magazine it was in.

It's in the Spring 2009 issue of Better Homes and Gardens Quilts and More. :)

Thanks! You have certainly sparked a lot of interest in doing this. :)

OOoh, fat free, I can deal with that!!!

It looks sew good, Shadow---

It does look almost real, doesn't it? lol!!! Great job on :D it!

Yummy !!!!!! :lol:

Ummmmmm chocolate cake......drooling.....:-)

I will have one too, please. A little wider, a little wider. Yeah, that's it! LOL ... I love chocolate cake!

Your piece of cake pincushion is very, very perfect shadow. I thought it was real at first too. Is it yours or a gift? I have seen cupcakes done as a pincushion too. Very cute idea.

How did you know? That is my favorite cake. Tee Hee Nice job.

Thank you everyone for your kind words. :)

Very realistic looking but it still makes me hungry. Love the cake plate too!

Love that, Shadow!

That is so cute. I want a piece, I do like fat free that means I can have seconds. Great job.

I bought that magazine with that pattern the other day, and I reallly want to make a slice or two myself now!!! Love your cake!

It is featured as a pin cushion in the magazine :)

how many calories did you say that is? i didn't see it on weight watchers.

So cute SD - I just bought the mazagine yesterday

Another Great job ! I would hate to use it :lol:

TOO CUTE

tlrnhi & sew4fun,
You can download this pattern on-line for free. I just saw it the other day but I can't remember where. If I can find it again I'll post it for you. Try the Better Homes and Gardens website, I may have seen it there or another magazine that is affiliated with BH&G. I have to run for now but I'll try to find the site later.

Sew nice. What a great gift idea for all your sewing friends???

Sew4Fun & Tlrnhi,
I looked for the slice of cake pattern but I couldn't find the one I originally saw that looked closer to what is pictured here. S.D., yours is much prettier than the one I found. I guess I should have bookmarked it, oh well next time. When I get a chance I'll continue to look for it or maybe I'll come across it by chance. The one that I did find is a thinner slice but I'm sure that you can make it whatever size you want once you get the basic pattern and instructions. Happy sewing and I hope that this link is of some help.
