    I've made quite a few capes/cloaks over the years, most of them lined.. I woudn't suggest sewing the lining to the outer fabric on the hem, yes it's faster, but different fabrics stretch at different rates and it's very likely you'll have problems with it after a short bit of use, or especially if you ever need to wash it. Better practice is to sew the front sides together, hem the lining and outer fabric separately, and make the lining a bit shorter so if it stretches it doesn't show. You can tack the two pieces together in a few places around the hem so it doesn't get all turned inside out, but don't do it tightly, use a little piece of woven tape or a thread chain that's 1-2 inches long so there's wiggle room for the stretch. The way described here is fine for a costume, but for every day use or hard repeated reenactment use do it the right way first to save yourself having the rip out that bottom seam later.

    @xCheeseHead95x 5 років тому +10

    Just a heads up for beginners: if you are making a short length cloak, i.e. if the width of your fabric is not near equal to the length you desire, do not use this method. You will end up with an oblong rectangle and not a square which geometrically cannot be folded to the appropriate size triangle for cutting. You can follow along up until she folds it width-wise. It is very similar to making a circle skirt for your neck, but you only want half a circle skirt for the half circle. Found out the hard way and nearly thought I'd wasted my only fabric I had before the Renaissance festival. Amazing tutorial otherwise!

    • @onlinefabricstore
      @onlinefabricstore  5 років тому

      Hi Julia, I don’t remember this being an issue at all. You can pull both the hood and main body linings away from the outer fabric so the linings have right sides facing too and start to sew at the seam between the lining and outer fabric. Since the linings aren’t sewn together yet, it’s easy to do the same thing at the end. It’s hard to explain but I think it will make sense once you’re doing it!

      But if you want to keep this about units of measurements we can also discuss how this country once crashed a million dollar mission on Mars because they accidentally measured in freedom units while literally all the other space organisations in the project used a more logical system.

      So I was stuck on this same part for like..... 2 hours trying to figure out how to fold it right. after watching the video carefully 3 dozen times I finally saw that the fabric was not a perfect square. When she finishes her cut 2:54 you can see the fabric is not all the way to the bottom. So pretty much you pick the side you want , and fold the side right too it with the neck side at a point. One end of the fabric had an overhang of about 5 inches for me. As long as you can make the semi circle to the length you need , you will be fine.

      You're right, the corners and bottom may not line up depending the size and width of the fabric. Here it happened to be a square but as long as the edges are lined up when you fold it diagonally, it doesn't matter if the corners or bottom edges line up. You can cut off any excess. Good luck!

      Some people attach a comb hairslide to the hood so it fixes to your hair very securely. Or you could curl back the hood like when you roll your sleeves up.
      Alternative ideas, saw some loops of cord to the top inner edge and use a couple of hairclips.

    I know this is an old video, but what if I only have half of the yards of fabric. So instead of 5 total I have more like 3. Will it just be shorter?

    • @madelinecoleman1967
      @madelinecoleman1967 2 роки тому

      Is it 5 yards TOTAL plus hood? Or 5 for the outside, 5 for the inside, plus the 1 for the hood?

    Anyone have recommendations on the best place to get medieval clothing (1150-1335AD) for men (English), women (Iberian) and children that also doesn't look out of place in the modern world?
    I was thinking that footwear like the following could suit (whilst not necessarily being perfect)
    Men: Sandals, Espadrilles, Ropes Sandals, Empire Sandals, Leather Thongs, Menorcan Sandals, Gladiator Sandals, Clogs, Monk Strap, Moccasins, Woven Sandals, Suede Loafer, Chukka Boots, Chelsea boots, Plimsolls, Cuban Heel Chelsea Boots, Chukka Desert Boot, Driving Shoes,
    Women: Strappy Tie-up Sandals, Knotted Suede Toe Post Sandal, Cross Strap flat sandals, Raffia double strap slide sandals, woven leather tie leg sandal, Mules, Clogs, Over the Knee Boots, Ballet Flats, Lace Up Knee High Boots, Stirrup Boots, Slouch Boot, Desert Lace Up Shoes, Cuban heel western Chelsea boot with buckle detail.
    Likewise, Quilted Clothing (like Quilted Sweatshirt, Quilted Puffer Coat, Quilted Coat, Quilted Tracksuit Pants, Quilted Tracksuit Top, Quilted Jumper) could suffice for Civilian Gambeson.
    I’m also thinking that Tunics (Knee, Cocktail, Midi or Maxi Length), Leggings, Tights, Long Sleeved V Neck Shirt, Tank Top, Henley Shirt, Track Pants, Hoodie, T-Shirt with Notch Neck, Driving Gloves, Suede Gloves, Leather Gloves could be used.
    Correct me if I’m wrong.

    • @onlinefabricstore
      @onlinefabricstore  5 років тому

      You could cut slits in the seams at the shoulders and add sleeves there. We don't have specifics since we haven't tried this, but that should work. Add the sleeves to the outer fabric and lining before sewing them together. Leave extra length in the sleeves to hem. Good luck!

  • @glenmeloy1601
    @glenmeloy1601 2 роки тому +1

    Thanks so much for this thorough video! I just finished my cloak for a renaissance festival and it came out great and I learned a ton! I wish there was an easy way to post a picture. My hood ended up being absolutely massive, I think because I cut a larger neck hole and that made the whole hood bigger (6" instead of 5 like in the video - I'm a 6' tall guy so I thought I'd need bigger) - but it's still cool. Mine took all weekend because I'm new to sewing and I also made it more complicated than it had to be by making the hood liner out of faux fur that wraps over the edge a couple inches to make a furry hood rim, and I added a strip of fur down each of the front edges, but I'm thrilled with it.

    Question, for a larger person is the measuring the same for the yardage? Total length×3÷12÷3?

    • @onlinefabricstore
      @onlinefabricstore  5 років тому

      Generally yes, plus an extra yard for wiggle room when cutting pieces out and have enough for the hood. Keep in mind, the larger the length measurement, the narrower the pieces will be, so it's possible you may want 2 extra pieces to make it more full. If this is the case, multiply by 4 instead of 3. Also if your fabric is less than 60" wide, then pieces will come out smaller and you may need more pieces to get it full enough. You can find the diagram for larger cloaks here: www.onlinefabricstore.net/makersmill/how-to-make-a-hooded-cloak-with-a-lining/
      Good luck!

    • @onlinefabricstore
      @onlinefabricstore  5 років тому

      Hi Julie, This cloak would be easy to make more full! The cloak in the video is 3/4 of a circle but you could do a full circle instead by cutting out 2 half circles. Or if you use the method for longer cloaks, just keep cutting out additional pieces until you have enough for a full circle. For the fabric amount you will need 4x the length of the cloak plus an extra yard for the hood. For the longer cloak method, you may need another extra yard. The hood would be made in the same way as in the video. Good luck!

    Note it's 2 yards plus 1 for a hood total 3 yards for outer fabric and another 3 for inner fabric you may want 3 1/2 yards if you want hand holes with trim or pockets or other decorative but matching fabric bits
    For winter ones use a woolen felt with a plush furr inner and it's toasty warm and lovely and normal use ones should come to mid calf not lower so to keep it clean longer ones are for weddings or photos only, not practical use.
    this ones for cool not cold weather that she made I'm making mine soon😆
