Create a regal fur-trimmed cloak without sewing a stitch. Fleece fabric is a good choice; it looks rich and heavy and it does not need to be hemmed. The cloak can be worn over a choir robe or a graduation gown. Add a belt of thick gold cord around the robe and accessorize with a large medallion on a gold cord necklace. A plastic crown will add the finishing touch.

Things You Will Need

  • Scissors
  • Fabric Glue Or Glue Gun
  • Fleece Fabric
  • Black Sharpie, Optional
  • Safety Pins
  • Tape Measure
  • 1 1/2 Yard Ribbon, 1"
  • White Faux Fur
  • Measure around the wearer's shoulders. Cut a rectangle of fleece this width and the desired length of the cape. Fleece will not fray when you cut it.

    Pin two 18-inch lengths of 1-inch ribbon to the top corners of the cape for ties. Cut the ends of the ribbon at an angle to prevent fraying

    Cut strips of white faux fur and glue them around the edges of the rectangle with fabric glue or a glue gun.

    Make dots on the white fur with a sharpie to make it look like ermine, if desired.
