I made it out of silky-like material from the sale bins at my fabric store and for the collar I doubled it and placed a piece of steam-a-seam applique bonding material in the middle. The only thing about this cape that I wasn't happy with was that it ended up really short - not even to my daughters wrists. Looked great with her dress but I would like to make some Christmas presents that are like your daughter's so I have a question.....<br /><br />Can you tell me how long your piece of string was for your homemade compass or how wide was your fabric?? 54"??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543941664703892689.post-8524352726730127312012-07-31T11:17:23.711-07:002012-07-31T11:17:23.711-07:00I made a Batman one for my eldest daughter two yea...I made a Batman one for my eldest daughter two years ago.

The fleece appliques on the backs were done by hand, but where on earth did you find a pattern?! <br /><br />On a personal note, my son (the father of my grandson) had several capes my aunt made for him when he was little and he played in the ALL THE TIME!

My kids are still dashing about in them making wooshing and zapping noises.<br /><br />Aimeeb, I just went and measured the dinner plate I used to cut the initial semi circle neck bit, and it was 27cm in diameter. After I'd cut the shoulder shaping and cut the lowered front neckline, when it was sewed up it worked out to make the finished collar of our capes 38cm in circumference. Hope that is helpful. I didn't really plan it in advance, just kind of winged it with what I thought looked about right.<br /><br />Also, appologies to any true comic book fans that Supergirl's cape is actually red, but we went for the blue so that the logo would look good on it ;)Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07169632319172011782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543941664703892689.post-2520035588512483842010-01-14T10:54:47.547-08:002010-01-14T10:54:47.547-08:00Love the cape.

I have made one but need to make another the one I made a blue one but the hole was a dinner plate and was too big (went over her shoulders!! - oops) but I gathered the neckline and put the collar on and put on little pockets. I also cut the material at an ovally shape because my 5 year old is very tall but needs to be able to get her arms out. Also lucky for me, my daughter wants to be captain america so its just a white star!! Am thrilled with results. thanks for the inspiration.'Meehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04746510226716480523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543941664703892689.post-42421520789007358732010-01-11T18:01:47.208-08:002010-01-11T18:01:47.208-08:00Wow!
