Are you a cake or a pie person? My husband and I had this debate one evening: If you could only have either cake or pie for the rest of your life what would you choose? My husband emphatically stated that he would do cake, because it has more options including cheesecake and ice cream cake. He also happens to not like the crust on regular pies, so I don't think his decision is very hard, but that discussion is for another day.
I mention this because when Little Lady saw me putting this quilt together, she said, "Mom, I love cake. Do you think I could have this quilt?" Uh, sorry, Little Lady! The quilt is already claimed. When she found it is was for a baby with the name Sophia (anything Princess Sophia is currently adored in this house) she thought it was a great idea to give the baby the cake quilt.
I decided to keep things in the cake family with a flannel cupcake fabric on back. It happens to be one of my stash finds I was waiting to use for something special, so it was fun to use it.
The paper-pieced cakes are from a tutorial
here. She made a table runner of cakes and I decided to use them for a baby quilt. Teia (pronounced Taya) should be making her debut early March, and the baby shower in her honor is this weekend, so I got it in the mail yesterday just in the nick of time.
