In this step I’m turning the front lower corners to rounded ends. My robe is long enough to sweep the floor -way longer than the original ankle-high Jedi robes- and that makes it quite difficult to walk.
Still, I don’t want to cut the fabric. I’ve been trying to keep the extra fabric in every part I’m working on, stitched on the inner side of the robe. That way, if I ever get to work with a sewing machine I would probably refit everything da capo.
Anyway, this detail is not included in the original design of the Jedi robes, but I figured that the round, shortened front ends would help me a lot in movement. I haven’t been following the original design anyway, because I want a more versatile cloak I could use for many occasions.
