DIY Cape

I'm not sure if a sewing project can get much easier than this one. All you need is 1 1/2 yards of fleece fabric, two buttons, thread, scissors, ruler and a about a half hour of time.
Here's the tutorial in a few easy steps:
Cut fabric to 44" by 55.5"
Fold Fabric in half

And in half again

Create the neck hole: In the corner where all fleece connects (in this case top left) measure 3" by 3" and cut out a semi-circle.
On the opposite side of the neck hole cut out a semi-circle

Unfold fabric; cut fabric to neck hole

Make two button holes


Use a seam ripper to open the button holes


Hand sew on two buttons


Complete!!
