a boy and his cape
Last week my friend, Brittany and I made capes for our boys.
We followed the tutorial from The Pleated Poppy.
It was easy, fun and we had great results!
I am so glad I finally did it since it has been on my list of projects for almost a year!
If only I didn't have to force Asher into said cape for pictures.
Shocking, considering he pretends to be a superhero at least one hour of each day,
and would probably say he relates best with Spiderman, Ironman and Superman.
It is a little long for him (almost down to his ankles),
but it will be able to be put to use for a couple more years.
And, I was thrilled when I found the polka dot and the main multi-colored fabric for 50% off!
It was a steal for this soft and good quality fabric.
Oh, and the fabric that I used to make the "A" says
"Super Helper!" all over it.
Perfect.
The only downside is that Husband seems to think this is girl fabric,
and that I should have used solids?
What do you think?
Now, I must go. My daughter said she wants to call the police on me because she isn't having any fun.

It's adorable, I mean "cool" Cass! Really cute and I'm sure he'll have fun with it for years to come. What a cutie and that is too funny what B said :) She's a crack up!
Oh! It turned out so cute!!! I love it and think the fabric choices are absolutely "manly" enough! :)
And Brooklynn.......that little creative one is hilarious!!!
personally, I don't think it looks girly. The colors are very fun. How creative and personal, I would love be able to make my little ones their own capes someday.
Cute, cute, cute! I mean the cape AND Asher! Now, go play with Brooklynn,okay? Love to all!
Cassie you made that!?!!! It is sooo cute...no way girl fabrics :) I am on your side :) He looks so cute in it! On his bike even...love it! Now THAT is childhood!
I love when Bo wears his but I laughed when I read about hard time taking pics...when I pull out my camera he rips his off too :)
Thanks again sooo much for entering the cupcake contest! I LOVED yours!!!
I think it is soooo cute but my son thinks it is too girly for sure, and as I write this my husband is telling me how embarassed he would have been to wear that. ;0) Just bein' honest.
He says he thinks it is a very stylish cape...maybe for an adult.
whatever! I think it looks "Super!" and Asher looks so pleased with himself. That is what matters.
I think your hubby is just jealous coz he wants one! I don't think it's girlie at all. Mega cute! X
that is so sweet!!
love it! you did a great job!
Thank you for your kind words, incite and opinions! Love to hear from you all!
