Materials you need at home:
- All accessories can be made in knit fabric, but you can use woven fabric for some of them. The two elements that must be sewn in knit fabric are the boots and the cuffs. For the cape, mask, and crown, you can use either knit or woven fabric.
- You can use all types of jersey (cotton, laser, Milano, viscose, velvet, linen, French terry, etc.), with a medium to medium-heavy weight (between 200 and 340 g/m²), as long as the elasticity rate is between 40% and 60%. For the smallest sizes, it is recommended to choose a stretch closer to 60%.
- For woven fabrics, choose lightweight fabrics (135 g/m² to 200 g/m²) to medium-weight fabrics (200 g/m² to 270 g/m²), such as cotton, poplin, linen, taffeta, satin, etc.
- Regarding the cape, I chose not to line it to keep it lightweight and prevent it from leaning too far back (the neckline should not strangle the child, which would happen if you choose a fabric that is too heavy). However, the pattern allows for a lined cape if you prefer (using the unpleated version for the lining), but in that case, select particularly lightweight fabrics.
- For the dress, find all the useful information in the tutorial overview.
In this discounted pack, you’ll find the two Gaby patterns for children + the Super Kid Kit to create a unique superheroine outfit by letting your imagination run wild, or a simple everyday dress to keep the superhero’s identity a secret.
I explain how I hacked the Gaby pattern for the occasion in the tutorial preview. The leggings, however, are store-bought.
Here are the five essential accessories for any self-respecting hero, ready to mix and match as you please:
- Shield cuffs
- Super-speed boots
- Cape for flying to infinity (and beyond)
- Invisibility mask
- Power crown
Have fun with colors, fabrics, and all kinds of embellishments to create a superhero costume like no other.
For children aged 2 to 14 years.
You’ll also find the Kit in two other product listings:
