Cosplaying a character that wears an old world war 2 nurse’s cape and this was the closest thing i could find. Easy to follow and super clear steps, my Wirt from Over the Garden Wall cosplay is done thanks to you!
Thanks for watching- glad you found it helpful
This is my first time sowing any type of clothing. I bought a cape pattern and found it extremely hard to work with. I love how you explained this in simple terms for beginners like me to understand. I greatly enjoyed your video. Thank you for posting.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️I am so glad it was helpful
This tutorial is perfect for me because I hate using pre-made patterns. I'm also about to make Raya's cape from Raya and the Last Dragon. It looks exactly like this so this is great!! Thank you!!
That sounds so fun - I hope you find the video helps in your project! Thanks so much for watching
I like this. I live in Jamaica (hot climate), I think I'll leave out the collar. Thank u, I've never sewn, except for an elastic waist skirt. Hand sewn, no machine.
So glad to hear you enjoyed it- I hope you keep giving sewing a try, it’s so much fun!
I followed your video and managed to finish a cape! I love the collar piece, it makes even my knee length cape look refined. I also used wool and really appreciated tips on how to work with it, I had never used wool before and had no idea what I was getting myself into. Thanks for a great video!
I love hearing this - thank you so much for sharing. Glad the video tutorial was helpful- enjoy your new cape
you just helped a broke lolita, thanks for this

Bonnie Ohio 🎉
Thank you so much Bonnie - any fabric with more structure should work well-maybe a velvet, faux fur, etc might be a good option or a suiting fabric for lighter weight
It will be very helpful for me if u share your body measurement for this cape in this tutorial and also how many yards of fabrics you have taken.thank you
The pattern can be drafted based on your own neck measurements and how you would like it to fit, overlap, etc. are you looking for the measurements I specifically used? I used 2 yards of wool, 2 yards of lining. Here is a link to the blog post with written details www.indoorshannon.com/sew-a-simple-chic-cape-sew-along-and-tutorial/
ola boa noite olha querida adorei o cape achei lindo parabens PATRIA AMADA BRASILSIL
Thank you for the video. This is exactly what I was looking for.
I have a question:
Why did you use 23inches for the collar length (at 7:03) and not 20inches as you decided at the beginning?
Great question and I apologize for the confusion. I filmed the beginning much later than the rest of the video and used 20” to demonstrate how I measured around my neck (I should have made sure that matched my pattern I had made months prior 🤦🏼♀️). I actually used the 23 inches for my pattern piece so that it would overlap quite a bit and still sit comfortably around my neck. Hope that helps
@@indoorshannon Make sense! Thank you for clarifying! My cape turned out, thanks to you
Me wanting to make the perfect cape for my Wirt cosplay: >://
This Video: ;D
Me: YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Bravo 👏👏 o
Hi I'm Sadia from Cape Town, South Africa.
Will it be possible for you to give me the full measurements please. I'm just a beginner n try n sew my own clothing.
I will truly appreciate if you can do all the measures for me please.
Thank you
Finally I can look
More stupid in my school
I have an existing circle skirt from a dress. The fabric is velvet and would be the perfect cape. Not sure how to make the waist portion small for my neck 😢. Trying to use this video for tips.
That sounds like a great upcycle - after creating your pattern from the tutorial, try cutting it out on the existing skirt- hopefully the skirt is large enough to fit your new pattern - hope that helps
@@indoorshannon it’s huge!!!! I didn’t want to take apart the skirt. I just wanted to work on the waist part and make it smaller to go around my neck. I’m having some issues. I know that it can be done. I just have to take my time and consider how much sewing I would have to do on the existing part of the skirt. I wanted to keep the hem of the skirt in place. However, I might have to cut the entire thing.
Hi! i wanted to make a super duper long one for a halloween costume, and I'm 6'4(tall lady), ideally it would be about a foot or so off the ground. I am really struggling with doing the double fold and getting my pattern right, as the fabric isn't long enough. What would you suggest I do?
Hi there, that would be challenging for that length and width with the full circle. You could just cut two half circles and do a seam in the back or you could use something like a bedsheet for fabric that’s really wide.
But in doing that how would you measure for
The nexk
I would draft the full circle skirt pattern with neck measurement, then just cut in half, adding in center back seam allowance where you will sew the two panels together-
🤗
Comment faire cette version en satin?
How much fabric should I start with?
It will depend on the size cape you are making and the length you want- a cape like the one I made in the video will roughly be 2-3 yards depending on the width of fabric
About how many yards did you use?
I believe I had at least two yards of each fabric- lining and main
Uhh.. a little late but- what was the white thing in the collar?😅
The interfacing? I am guessing that might be what you are talking about- it is fused to the back side of the fabric
@@indoorshannon alr thanks!
Disponible
Traducao??
The collar part always gets me confusing 😫
Collars are always a bit tricky - hope the video is somewhat helpful getting through that portion.
@@indoorshannon Will do my best.. Thank you ❤️🩹
💞👏🤌
I must try to communicate.avoiding it❤❤❤❤❤
