Fondant Roses



Made fondant roses and flowers for the cake for the anniversary party this weekend. I am not good at the icing roses, so I usually sculpt them from fondant. These are tinted rose and yellow and coated with pearl dust in pink and gold. I have full roses, rosebuds and cut-out daisy-like flowers. I also have green leaves. When I ice and decorate, these will be placed on top with icing vines and additional leaves. I will post a photo of the completed cake on Saturday.

No sewing today, maybe tonight after kids are all bathed and in bed. Gotta finish the dress...

Post a comment and I will draw this weekend. And to last weeks', now I have your info & they will go out tomorrow. At this rate, I may thin my stash quicker than I thought. Once my kids go back to school, I may go through the fabric stash and make little scrap bags for quilting scraps for giveaways. On the home sewing front, I was able to get one top put together for daughter and the second is also sewn together. Both need bias tape finishing (handwork) which can be done in the evening in front of the TV. Maybe tomorrow I will get the remaining pants cut out, bringing her total to a possible 5 pairs of capri/shorts for school
