I originally made this for my friend April for Christmas. She was going through a rough patch and I thought that a cape, like a big hug, would make her winter. Since then I have made several and hope to sell them this fall/winter.

really great! I am also thinking about making capes because it is easier to sell because it is not so difficult with the different sizes. Go on this way, I am sure you will sell them. the buttons are very very nice
