It was Mum’s birthday yesterday and in the past she’s always made beautiful birthday cakes for my brother and I.  So I decided I would try and make a special cake for her this year.  She loves sewing and quilting, so the obvious idea was to make a quilt cake!

I cheated by buying the cake itself and white ready-to-roll icing.  But the the quilt and sewing machine were made by me.

I’m pleased with how it turned out and she loved it!
