      Only problem is that she says her transformations can take weeks, and Project Runway gives you a couple days...

    I'm just "yumming up" these older ThriftTrans-es … O.M.Goddess! I'd forgotten how hot (& cool) you make a cape blazer look. If only I'd had Thrifted Transformations back when I was a Secretary - I would've blown them all away! Thanks again for yet another great vid.

    How long the cape is depends on the length of the skirt, so keep this in mind when buying a skirt suit to do this project.

    You can get inexpensive feet individually or in basic sets from Amazon or Ebay. Most of my feet were $1 with free shipping, and I bought 1 set that was only $11. I'm down to needing specialty {aka wish list} feet like beading and sequins. I figure it will be around $15 for those, but I'm pacing myself as a reward for completing the projects I already have going. The only one I don't think you should cheap-out on is the walking foot as one that is poorly made can damage the machine, so that will be a big reward for around $25. For now, my knit foot works fine. THANK YOU FOR THE INCENTIVE to get my projects done, you always inspire me to work harder and be more creative. :)

    Your cape blazer looks awesome, I have had an large old blazer in the bottom of my closet for 2 years that I have been wanting to make a cape coat out of. I am still a beginner sewer but maybe your video will now inspire me to finally do it!

  • @jessielovesfashion

  • @dlynch4ever
    @dlynch4ever 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Omg, I thought I would try this for sure until I saw you actually do it. It’s the lining that will throw me off. I will keep this one in the archives for later! You got SKILLS!

  • @FadhiliTheOne
    @FadhiliTheOne 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is by far one of the best caped blazer tutorials on TH-cam! I always felt like the other ones weren't as fitting or properly porportionated but by using the endemble rather than just the top makes for a great fit!

  • @MyTaylordCloset
    @MyTaylordCloset 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    great idea it came out amazing. I tried to turn a boyfriend style blazer into a cape blazer but it wasn't working out. I never thought to use a suit. Its genius I need to go thrifting. you are so inspiring I love sewing and reconstructing my clothes.

  • @AnMandyy
    @AnMandyy 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    At first; THANK YOU for wearing just that choker !! I found a piece of rhinestones linked together just like that and now I know what to do with iiiiittt !! *excited*
    And also I love this tutorial. I bought a blazer I used once and that's it. I'm soo gonna do this but I think I need to watch this again a few times so I won't mess up 😇

    I was actually just looking up patterns and what not to make an Inverness Cape like this (but longer) and having trouble finding any, this made the 'how the heck do I draft a pattern for this' part of my sewing madness so much simpler! What luck, Thank you!

      If you can suture, you can sew! I got into sewing as a way to have a lot of clothing without being rich in high school, lol. As a nurse practitioner, I used my abilities to ace suturing. So if I can do it you can too. I found suturing much harder than hand sewing.
