My cape made from navy velvet with a silver metallic celestial/zodiac pattern. The fabric is no longer available.

Celestial Cape - finished at last! $20/yd at JoAnn’s. Thick navy plush (with stretch) with metallic celestial design - weighs a ton! For autumn and Winter use!

Re-posting this video my bf took last year - when I saw those two 'darker' patches, I knew I have to get more fabric and replace them. ASA I get the hems finished, I'll have to get him to take a new video.

{PS - I saw more of this fabric at JoAnn's - not sure if it's a new run (it was discontinued) or leftover stock from last year. Now that they have a new sale - I will buy up all the rest that I can!}

When I first made this cape in 2022, I had to make it fit the yardage that I had, so at the time I was unable to do the extension on the corners with the piles going in the correct directions. I have since acquired more yardage and am changing the inserts so that they line the piles up correctly!

Not a major thing; most people might never notice - but it drove me crazy! We will get the hem re- attached and no one will ever know the difference! Sometimes being a costumer makes you sweat the details, and since I am making this for myself, it damn well better be right! LOL!

Here it is! The cape some of you have been waiting for - $20 a yard at JoAnn’s and used 4+ yards to make this ankle-length cape. Weighs a ton! Definitely for Autumn or Winter use! Short Video here: https://youtube.com/shorts/AfWBc7ZGsVY?feature=share

Like the Rainbow Celestial cape last month - I find this great image online, but cannot find out a single thing about it - such as trying to buy it.
