They’ll Love a Personalized Birthday Cake Banner
Make a Birthday Cake Banner in a “Flavor” the Recipient Loves!
Cynthia at DreamQuiltCreate began “baking” utterly charming quilted birthday cake banners for her grandchildren. Soon her daughters and daughters-in-law wanted them too.
We can understand why. There’s nothing like a personalized banner quilt to display during your birthday week (or month) to make you feel special!
Each cake banner is customized to the recipient – not just with their name, but also with colors they love or fabrics that mimic their favorite cake flavor.
It’s hard to decide which one we like best!
Here’s a lemon cake with strawberry icing for Kennedy.
Neo wanted her cake to be pink, yellow and purple.
Cynthia created a “Celebrate” cake for her son and his wife to share on their birthdays.
And, here’s a table runner in process, made with 4 cake blocks put together. This will be wonderful for birthday parties!
Cynthia’s birthday cake “baking” began with a pattern from her friend Lori Holt, who designed it to celebrate the 1-year birthday of the release of her book, Quilty Fun.
The first cake Cynthia baked using the pattern was a strawberry cheesecake.
A Chocolate Mousse cake soon followed.
Before long the idea popped up to add names and to make the birthday cake block into birthday banners.
