Quilt Doodle BOM 2015 - May's Blocks

For the month of May there were two blocks to appliqué for the BOM My Favorite Things. First out is the Birthday Cake.

I made a sweet pink cake with white icing which contained lots of white hearts on white (not easy to see in this picture). I like the old fashioned look of the cake stand. Three candles in darker pink tops the cake. Lots of tiny glass beads will be sewn on the cake after the quilting is done.

The second block really wants me to go out and work in the garden! Look at these nice flowers and the hard working bee! Buttons will be attached to the flowers later, in addition to embroidery of the flight of the bee.
