Super A!

I finally made that super hero cape I've been threatening to make.

It didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped. Firstly because I was in a rush I managed to snag the material in the sewing machine. Secondly I didn't bother to learn how to applique properly, so the A is just stitched on with a zig zag and looks a little bodgy.

I'll try again - hopefully next time will be better! Even if it isn't I'm sure ChingyPingy and Mr McGillicuddy will love their super hero capes just because mama made them!

On the plus side - this took less than half an hour to stitch up.

  2. It is a delightful cape which will definately confer super powers on the wearer. I need a super baby sleeping cape this evening, I eventually sent in the Dad.
