    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!

    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!

    Thanks for the video, It really helped me to make my own cape.
    In particular, finishing sewing with different colors of bobbin and upper thread is a method that I did not know about.
    Thank you and please forgive me for using a translator because I am not good at English. ;)
    Your English was easy to understand.

    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?

    • @indoorshannon
      @indoorshannon  3 роки тому +1

      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
      @indoorshannon  3 роки тому +1

      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/

    • @shannonharrington5350
      @shannonharrington5350 4 місяці тому

      Hello - Yes, you could draft your collar piece and angle out each side instead of drawing a rectangle. I am not sure how it would look all put together as I have not tried it with this style cape, but you could try a test one in cheap fabric for the collar and try pinning it on to see how it would look.

    • @indoorshannon

      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.
