bluenines said... very nice cape, great idea to use reflictive fabric for the seams, much more stlyish than the rtw vest that you can buy 8/9/10 4:38 PM

Ann Smith said... What a great idea! Too bad you had trouble but I think your end result is just the thing for safe and stylish riding. 8/9/10 6:06 PM
FreyaStark said... Very smart, safe and stylish. 8/9/10 6:53 PM
ClaireEmily said... That is gorgeous!!! That is a very stylish bicycle and bicycling outfit! (much nicer than my ugly fluro yellow jacket). Inspiring work! =) 8/9/10 7:52 PM
persevering said... Thanks so much for inspiring posting. As I'm a biker too, all the effort you put into your clever cape makes a lot of sense to me. 8/9/10 7:54 PM
Mazzygirl said... I think you're being too hard on yourself, yes it was a lot of work by the sound of it, but what a great result! Great 'thinking outside the box' to use a cape for a bike-riding cover-up - brilliant idea! who'd have thought it would be perfect for that?! it looks fantastic, its also highly functional & practical to boot with the reflective trim, it can't get much better than that! (except maybe a windslicker version & matching hat for rainy days?? ) Well done! 8/9/10 9:17 PM
JillyBe said... Love the whole package! The cape, the bike, the setting - fabulous! Quit fussing and enjoy, I say! You are stylin'! 8/10/10 1:36 AM
Terri A said... Very wow - love the cape and the photo was cool! 8/10/10 2:41 AM
lareine said... What a fantastic idea, and a great end result! I have a similar style bike and I hate how my modern gear looks on it. You have inspired me to make something more suitable :) 8/10/10 5:27 AM
Michele19 said... Brilliant! It came out great and looks smart and cute. 8/10/10 5:44 AM
Rebecca D said... I love your cape. What kind of bike do you have? And where did you get your panniers? You are stylin' on your ride. 8/10/10 6:54 AM
MissCelie said... So, I love the cape. But, I am totally taken with the entire look and ensemble! 8/10/10 9:14 AM
Sana said... I think you're being too hard on yourself. It looks good and adding reflective tapes to the seams was clever. 8/10/10 11:08 AM
Lee Ann Hawkins said... I usually think capes look rather costumish--but you have changed my mind, I want one just like this! Quit fussing and enjoy, your work is exquisite! 8/10/10 2:04 PM
Tallahasseelassie said... I think your cape is lovely and job well done. Very smart looking and would never guess the stripes were reflective - thought just decorative. Nicely done. Bet you get loads of compliments when on your bike wearing your cape! 8/10/10 3:27 PM
Hilary said... Lovely!! I really love your bike, too (my favorite, RED ! :o) The cape turned out beautifully, stylish & functional as well. I think I need one too, and I already have this pattern. Thanks for the review! 10/23/10 3:33 PM
