Project for September 18 (20)

Miss Rachel's Capelet Ensemble:


Next week's Project materials:


Cape: 1 piece lining fabric, 1 piece out fabric Each should measure at least 9 inches X 15 inches
Shirt: easily made from 1 outgrown shirt or  1/3 yard knit fabric
Skirt: 1/4 yard fabric (or 1 fat quarter!)

Thread to match
This will likely be a 2 week project because we will cut from a pattern (students will get a copy of patterns to keep)
As usual girls are welcome to my ample scrap collection. But also think about using cast off clothing or linens.
Velcro, and elastic will be provided

In order to plan ahead:
The circle poncho (in lower post) will require:

1 1/2 yards laminated cotton and 2 yards lining fabric (flannel or quilting cotton reccomended)
1 "largish" button as pictured
