Superhero Cape!

With 3 year old nephews, I'm not sure a better gift exists.  This is for the birthday of my husband's nephew.  I have two more to make for two of my nephews for Christmas.  I'm going to change the neckstrap a bit for the next one.  And I need some cooler superhero logos for the next two as well.

The logos are from felt.  I think i hate Heat and Bond.  I was having a lot of trouble getting it to adhere on the red side.  

This is the next to last project I have to finish before we fly home for the weekend.  The last one is the slip for the dress, since my MIL pouted when I told her I didn't know if I'd get it done.  If the gathering foot is in the mail tomorrow, I'll crank it out.

Re: Superhero Cape!

  • So cute! I need to make one for my kids- maybe for Xmas.

    You don't need a special foot to gather, you know- I have one, but, never, ever use it. I just push up the thread tension and use a long stitch, and my machine gathers very nicely. 

  • Mine doesn't gather that nicely, most especially on something like tulle.  My long stitch becomes a rather irregular tiny stitch when I gather and I do not like the results.  So I gather by hand on clothing, but this tulle makes me want to scream.
