Cape making

My last project was cape making for the Northeast Theatre Dance Academy. I made 16 capes for the annual recital. When I'm totally finished we will have 20 capes for the studio to use. I combined 3 patterns to get the shape and size the director, Miss Lisa, wanted.

I did start out with the pattern pressed...


The worst part of the cape project was that my sewing room was in the process of being relocated in another room of our house and I had to use the dining room. I knew the project would take a while and I hate having the table not looking nice. Luckily, the weather was nice and we could eat outside.

When I learn how to upload a video, I will.

So much to come...

Last weekend was dedicated to sewing dance capes and getting the "new" sewing set up. Pictures and more posts will be available soon. Keep posted.

Past Projects

I have had many students come to my class and unfortunately, I do not have pictures of all the projects that have been completed. That is going to change right now.

Together we have completed a mother of the bride dress, coats, 8th grade formal dresses, aprons, business suits, quilts, curtains, dresses, pants, and everything else I forgot to mention.

Feel free to comment, follow, and ask questions about the projects.
