For more instructions on how to make this tie you can view my tutorial on making a belt that I have already given detailed instructions, just go to the search bar on my blog and type in Smocked/shirred maxi skirts for little girls and that tutorial will show you how to make a simple belt that works well for this cape tie. I used the same fabric as I made the cape out of. Once that is sewn, make a tie or use ribbon to be tied in a bow to hold cape on.

Then I made a stitch along the bottom of this fold to make the sheath that the bow/ribbon that holds the cape on goes through. (You could do this many ways such as serge them, fold over, press, sew down, I opted for using my rolled edge hemmer foot that hems as you sew, very easy!) Then I folded the top of the cape over about 2" and pressed to hold it there. Then I finished all the edges all the way around so they don't fray. Then I held it up to my 7 year old to see how much shorter I wanted it, trimmed it. I started with a rectangle about 27" wide and 34" long. I decided to share how I did it in case there are any last minute mom's out there in need of some help.įirst step, cut a rectangle out of your fabric using the person you are making it for as a guide. So I made her a dress and a cape out of a beautiful cobalt blue taffeta with gold trim.
