Name:

What I Made

I made this cape with a few tweaks of your guide (Hooded Cape Tutorial), so that i could turn it inside out for a different colour.

How I Made it

I followed your guide for the majority of it but i also used 2 different colours (red/gold) 2 meteres of each with one of each side to make it a 2-in-one cape! :D Also for the tie i used some curtain cord that you use to hold back curtains instead of extra material.

Tips and Tricks

  • Sewing parts of the cape by hand meant that the stitching would not show up when I turned the cape around the other way

Ash, the curtain cord was a great idea, and a big time saver! I love the two different colors, I hadn't even though of making a reversible cape yet. Man, my brown Jedi-esque cape looks pretty lame right about now. I'm going to have to try this out!
