It took me couple of tries to figure out the proportions of the donut, since sewing it changes things up a bit. In the end, for the donut base, I cut a circle that was 5 inches in diameter, with a 1.25-inch diameter hole. For the frosting, I cut a circle that was 5.25 inches in diameter and also with a 1.25-inch diameter hole. Once I made sure the frosting aligned with the sewn donut, I played with the circle, giving it "swirls" to make it more frosting-like. My donut turned out a little big -- it's by far the biggest ornament on the tree, beating out the crochet reindeer, but I'm quite fond of it.
