Clear off a spot on the table in the unfinished craft room...Then cut two different colored felted wool into two rectangles 5 x 12 inches. Then cut 2 pieces of not too thick quilt batting 3 x 10 inches. It doesn't have to be exact.
Put the quilt batting on top of the felt and fold the felt over making a tube. Glue or sew closed. (Just the long side).
Make both tubes then place one on top of the other and roll. 
Trim the excess felt and fold under to make a neat edge then glue or sew.The "cupcake" wrapper is an old stretchy ribbed turtleneck that was cut into a 5 x 10 inch rectangle.
Glue one edge under to make another neat edge. Fit the wrapper around the cupcake, trim off excess, fold under and glue or sew.
Push the middle of the cupcake up to form a cupcake top. Trim bottom wrapper, fold under, glue or sew.
Cut a round circle of felt to fit the bottom, glue.
Cut a little green felt leaf, and find a little cherry red pompom and glue on. Or embellish however you'd like. Wrap a ribbon or more felt around cupcake and you're done.
Gosh, I hope that made sense.

Thanks a bunch! However I may need a trip to the city to find felted wool (on nice dry non snowy roads)...Just so you know; my marshmallows are still in the freezer… I had good intensions of gettin fudge done that day, but the day was fuller than I had realized. They are calling my name every day, maaaake me….maaaaake me.......... LOL DH has fallen from the top of a pole before. But it was winter, and there was a good snow fall on the ground. :-) Only about 5 weeks left till spring!! Wa Hoo! Thanks again for the “recipe” for the cupcakes!!!!! ♥ Lewaina
Wow. That was easier than I thought it would be. Of course I've just read how to do it and haven't actually done it.
They are so cute! You make it look so easy!

Mimi Sue,
You make it seem so easy, If I can get up the nerve I might just try it. Now , my mother can just look at something and make, I think I am going to see if she can't help. You gave wonderful instructions!!! Blessings'

That was adorable. Great instructions too.
Oh I think I can do that....they are too cute...But I still like the high calorie version...just popped 6 big ones out of the oven...
That pincushion is just so cute! Thanks for giving us the directions on how to make one. So funny that you have the same craft table as I do. We are good bargain hunters, aren't we?!
Those cupcakes are sooooo cute! And the best thing is there's no guilt after enjoying them.
This kind of sugar is on my diet! I really want to try making one of these. Thanks so much for the directions.
I have to try this!
