DIY : Cape

Recently on a shopping trip i saw capes like this but as usual they were ridiculously priced , this with a host of other expensive discoveries was my inspiration to join sewing classes which finally paid off . This is one of my first creations ,after ruining  meters of fabric finally got it right . Cutting the fabric  was the biggest challenge for me though it was a very simple  cut.

After the deluge of sweet e-mails from my encouraging readers i have decided to make this for anybody who’s interested .
