Personalized Super Hero Capes

The perfect gift for the Super Hero in your life! Truman and Lincoln wore theirs to a super hero birthday party. I cut out the letters in a fabric that does not fray like fleece and backed them with an iron on interfacing. This made it easy to machine baste the letters onto a contrasting colored, bottom weight, or broadcloth diamond. The edges of the diamond were pressed under 1/4 inch and stitched into place on the back of the cape. The neck is edged with store bought bias tape which serves as the ties as well .

Those are very nice. Henry go compliments on his cape when he wore it tonight to Best Buy and Sonic.

I saw the pictures of the boys at the birthday party sporting their capes. I could tell they LOVED THEM! Perfect for these two little guys. I should have known that they were lovingly made by you. Just 'Super' cute!!

Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.
