My 4 year old son cannot get enough of this tutorial. He LOVES Man Sewing, and it has become part of bedtime routine. I've witnessed him on multiple occasions playing "man sewing" as he stands behind the table showing his "audience" how to make something.
I will be using this tutorial to make several capes for my Relay For Life event this year. Here in Clinton County Michigan our theme is Heroes of Hope (Superheroes).
+Selina Mills oh goodness that is adorable!!! We would love a video the next time you catch him doing that!! Future Man Sewer?? :)
Did you see this weeks tutorial? If you've ever wanted to make a cape for you (or your kids) then you don't want to miss this one!
You should talk to me, I've been doing capes since 2008, I have 3 red capes, a white cape, and black cape, and polyester works best
I can't imagine a Monday without the fun, joy and excitement you bring! Your children must simply adore you for the crafts you come up with for them. I loved your tip for tracing and putting "markers" and then filling them in with the straight line rulers, I always get wobbly lines, thanks! Another awesome tutorial!
Carol Doyle thank you, thank you, thank you!! That means a lot. My kids still think I'm cool, but I dread the day they stop thinking that!! :) Glad you enjoyed that tip for tracing, it's saved me on many projects!!
Great tutorial! I appreciate the tip on tying the straps under the arms instead of the neck! Thank you!
This is great! My kids will love it. So glad you have sewing tutorials as well and not just quilting. Thanks Rob!
anthony membrino thanks for following along! I'm glad you're liking the variety in my tutorials!
Rob makes all his projects look so easy. Love his Tutorials.
irma reidland thank you!!
wow!!! another great video!!!! I'm very proud of you for telling us that you know you left your blade open because it shows that you know it should be closed. I have a 19 year old daughter that would love to have a Batman cape. I think i'll put a hook in her room hang the cape on it and above it make a sign that states "Home is where you hang your cape" she would love that. lol
Robin Marcum that's awesome! I love that quote, haha it's perfect!!!
My 9 year old son and I made him a cape it turned out wonderfully! Thanks for all the great tips and as a mom of 5 boys it is great to show them cool guys can sew too!
Thank you for the Monday morning laugh. I love the cape. My great grandson will love one of these when I find the time to make it. I am so amazed at how you can cut with the rotary cutter freehand. I still cannot get the hang of that one.
Judy Jensen I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!! You'll get there with the rotary cutter, patience and practice!
I missed this....this is cute Rob ! Thanks so much for sharing.....every little boy loves a cape ! ( at least my boys did when they were little !
Rob, you crack me up. LOVE your energy and enthusiasm. Your tutorials are entertaining and always informative. Thanks very much. Never want to miss any.... Kathleen
Love your tutorial on the "Safe" cape straps. I too refused to make a cape that goes around the neck. I plan on making your design for my 3 year old grandson. Thank you.
You are so flippin' hilarious. The intro made me cackle. lololol. Totally awesome tutorial, and the tip for tying the cape is absolute genius. I've always hated the choking ties and ended up pinning them to my bra strap (Sorry for minor TMI, but it's a great anchor, lol, and I seem to find myself in caped costumes more than the average person. lol) But even safety pins have their hazards, and this lets you play with the kids, with lots of mobility, and not worry about a pin exploding off the cape and hurting someone.
Cheryl Land thank you for the support! I'm glad you liked this tutorial and the tricks I showed. Are you going to be busy making capes all week??
Thank you. My granddaughter loves her cape. The idea for the ties is great
OMG thank-you for the wonderful tips and tutorial and The healing laugh I needed today.Have nice Day ,God Bless You and Yours.
Mary Bertot you are so welcome!! I'm glad you guys think I'm funny!!
U r fun to watch and to sew with, I am a grandmother of two little boys, sew thank u for the super hero cape project and by the way one will be for melollollolhaha, thank u. and GOD bless u and family.
Rob, love your tutorials!!!!! I love your approach to sewing, just go for it!!! I have a tip for you, instead of using the sharpie marker switch to the Friction pens, they work just as well but when you iron the item the lines disappear!!!!!!! they also come in an assortment of colors
Love it!! Thanks for the tip about backing my fabric with a piece of paper when satin stitching; I've always done it by hand.
Also, the tip of having the ties go underneath the arms to the back? Genius!
I have a really sick kiddo who's been staying at home from school with me. I really needed some laughs and, Rob, you were so kind enough to supply them! Thank you and I'll see ya next week! :)
Ann Witten that's so nice of you! So glad you learned a few tricks! Hopefully your kid is feeling better!!
Man Sewing Aww, thanks! He's feeling better- although he 'bout drove me crazy for being home sick from school for that entire week...Yes! You read that right- a whole WEEK!! :)
The shoulder straps a a great idea
this is great i can't wait to make for my nephew!
Perfect. Thank you!
Will it still be an 9" from the center for a child size cape ?
Thanks for the idea about using paper as a stabilizer.
Rob have you ever made something from Neck Ties ? Any ideas would be cool, we all have lots of ties laying around, usually very nice material.
Dennis Cory great idea!! I'll have to see what I can come up with!
Awesome! I'd love to learn how to make a matching one for my little dog!
Matt Beckwith haha that's so cool! I'll have to see what I can come up with!

Spider-man should wear a cape, all that swinging around it would work great
totally cool and quick...
Terry workman thanks man!!
Where may I purchase that lightening needle T shirt
... just stumbled upon your tutorials and now I'm hooked! I subscribed your channel. Btw. I love your shirts and logos. The manly needle remembered me a little bit of ZZ Top -- "Sew Sew top", wouldn't this be a good name for your band? ;)
Okay...Flash does not wear a cape, but he DOES wear a mask. Any idea on how to make his mask. Thought of taking a rayon type material, wrapping it around my head, pinning it, then sewing it. Of course there is MORE to it than that.
How about doing a tutorial on that....I might subscribe to this channel if I saw that. It appears that NO ONE on UA-cam wants to post a video on how to make a Flash mask. How bout it? You'd be the first! Let me know.
Where are the logos available? I love this idea,. Thanks, Rob
Hi Charlotte! Here is the link to the logos: photokapi.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/superhero.pdf? Hope you have fun making this!
Having issue finding link to logos
What is the name of the quilt in the background ? Maybe show us how to make it !
Anne Ryan We've got plans for that one in the future! :)
Rob, What dimensions are we to cut for the 3&4 yr old's For my grandsons and Gr Grandson. Have the 1 yd pieces by 45" so they appear too big. Help I need to complete and get in mail.
Pam O'Brien using between half and 3/4 of a yard will make a large difference!
So what size did you end up making your capes?
I cannot find the site for the diy logos. Can you please post it again?
