Inputs
Sizes are computed from these fixed inputs: fabric count 14, max cells 40, hoop (in) 4. A different gauge or stock makes a different size; the counts do not change.
Brief
“A little pink and white cupcake with a red cherry on top, left-right symmetric, in a 4 inch hoop.”
Checks
The counts, part sizes and placement were checked by computation on 29 September 2026 (verified on attempt 1); the piece has not yet been made by hand. If yours comes out differently, tell us and we will look at it.
