fabric birthday banner

I saw one somewhere on the Internet and thought I can do that....
.....so I made up a pattern and I did!

My original banner adorns my family room window every birthday (7 times a year).
The kids expect it and look forward to it.


 

It's been a while since I last made one and it was fun to revisit this old pattern/friend of mine.
I love this line of Moda Fabrics and I thought they worked perfectly for this project.
This banner is going to a friend for her birthday.
The fabric reminded me of her.....so I hope she loves it as much as I do.


I have to mention how S T I N K I N' H A R D it is to photograph these banners!
So please forgive the less than stellar photography......um....well...now that I think about it, it's probably always less than stellar so never mind.

Moving on.

I was going to post a link to a tutorial so you could make your own banner if you wanted to but when I googled it I couldn't find any like mine so maybe I should write my own?
What do you think?
Anyone interested?
