Little Cupcake Tote with Texture Magic

I am always looking for new ways to use Texture Magic. I see so many possibilities in just about every pattern I look at. I think "That's a great pattern, but it would be even better with a little Texture Magic added here or there."

Such is the case with making the Little Cupcake Tote by Quilts Illustrated.

This pattern only requires 3 fat quarters.

For the cupcake top, I stippled the Texture Magic to the back of the purple fabric.
* For a conversion chart for Texture Magic, you can down load a version on Superior Threads Web site HERE. I used a 10" X 14" piece of TM and fabric to start out with. This gave me enough to allow for shrinkage for the 2 frosting tops.
This looks almost good enough to lick.
The tote works up very quickly and would be a nice Christmas present.
I think a little girl would love to have this little tote for carrying her favorite things.
