Problem with using Polyester is that you don't get the "flourish" of the cape with the lighter material. The wool is heavier, and hotter, but looks SO much...
Ok, so wool. Are there different types of wool and if so, which one do I use? Can the wool that I need be found at a regular fabric shop? Do I use wool for...
Well, after a few unsuccessful attempts, and a couple of burnt fingers, I finally managed to wire up a 3 LED flashing sequence for my chest box. I used...
It's a heavy grade, dense weave wool. My cape is lined with black satin with the lining detached from the actual cape....creates a pocket of air which makes...
He's right. Poly will be lighter (and if you're lucky you might find one that even looks vaguely like wool), but it will not hang well at all. It'll drape like...
Suit weight woven wool, not coat wool. You should be able to find a fake leather at a fabrics shop. If not, you may have to do some hunting. Difficult to say...

Awesome! I did go to a Joann's Fabrics store near us today, but I didn't see any leather material. I'll go back tomorrow and ask them. Hopefully they have...

Going another direction. I hope that they do an IMAX version. They just opened one here where I live and at Christmas they had "Polar Express" showing on it. ...
Well, my local Joanne's doesn't carry pleather persay. They do carry the similiar vinyl though so I may end up having to go with that. I am going to check a...
It's just a cotton fabric that's often used for working out patterns because it's inexpensive and gives a true shape to what you're trying to make, unlike...
Well, it certainly won't make the vinyl any more breathable, but at least it won't add to the thickness. ... up ... I ... <gypsyboy88@y...> ... it's ... can ...
