Shannon Makes | CAPEtember Sew-Along #6: Pockets & Front Panel // Vogue 9288 @ShannonMakes | Uploaded September 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Let's put needle to thread to fabric and start sewing our cape! This step is mainly for those following the specific Vogue pattern, simply because most other capes don't necessarily have a dedicated front panel, but you are all welcome to come along on the journey with me regardless of what pattern you're sewing!
I tried to show the all steps for all the main variations of the cape, even if they're not the variations I personally am choosing, for those who are using the rounded pockets, and those who are sewing facings but not a lining. It got a little chaotic, but I did my best, so I hope you find it helpful!
If you've always wanted to sew a cape, but weren't confident enough to do so by yourself, or if you've had a half-finished cape sitting in a corner, now is the time to come join in as we all join together to make some fabulous capes, cloaks, mantles, shawls, dolmans, etc
