Superhero Cape

I was reading my friend's blog the other morning and saw pictures of her son wearing a cape that his Nana made for him - a cape that was inspired by another friend's craftiness.  I then realized that I totally forgot to post pictures of the glorified Christmas tree skirt super hero cape that I made for the Kid a few months back.  I had posted the images on Facebook but forgot to post them here.  I get confused, sometimes.

Finished product

 
Don't look too closely at the wonky sewing on this cape.  It looks like it was sewn in the dark.  Note to self - do not attempt to sew a million little polka dot circles onto a cape when it is our first sewing project since 8th grade home ec.  There may have been a few un-Christian words spoken during the process.  Straight lines = WIN.  Curved lines = FAIL.  Anyway, the Kid didn't care and she runs all around the house wearing it.

I think I need a cape.
