Birthday Month

April is over and with it another month of birthdays has passed.  Adrienne celebrated her 30th birthday on the 23rd; Michael turned 10 on the 28th and Lauren and Dylan celebrated their birthdays on the 30th.  Lauren (my youngest!) is 25 and Dylan is

Katie made a Handy Manny birthday cake:

The fondant and decorations were made from confectioner’s sugar and marshmallow.  I love the tape measure!  She also made the cookies.

Michael had his friends over for a football party.  Katie found out how much food 11 ten year old boys eat! For his birthday I made Michael a Yankees quilt.  Since cotton Yankee fabric is difficult to find I did some improvising.

The Yankee logos were appliqued.  The grey Yankee square and the blue fabric were a shirt and pajama pants from Walmart.

I found the badges on E-bay.

2001 is the year that Michael was born.

Dylan said that HE wants a baseball quilt now!!
