The Making of a frosty winter cape - FREE PATTERN - Cosy winter sewing

[@trexapex00]

Not only did you hand stitch invisible stitches on the cape you also hand embroidered custom gloves! 😲 I can't even comprehend how many hours you put in to this - simply stunning!

[@friedalepold]

Thank you so much 🥰 I’m actually relatively fast with my handsewing, but it still took some time for sure :D

[@ValerieSaubrement]

Absolutely thrilled you decided to share your pattern! Thank you so so much. Couldn't help but laugh out loud when you said you were trying to make it "a fun little project without trying for it to be perfect" as you were embroidering the gloves by hand with so much detail and precision 😂😍🤩

[@friedalepold]

Oh well 😂 I know it didn’t looked like it, but for me it was really more a fun project :D

[@nimuenorth6295]

The cape looks beautiful, whimsical, and has that perfect fairytale flair. And if there's enough fabric to make it full-length, it would embody all the drama! Thank you for sharing the pattern!

[@friedalepold]

Oh yes a full length version would have been amazing 😍

[@janevacani6789]

How beautiful, the collar in small pieces joined is stunning!

[@friedalepold]

Thank you 🥰

[@colorexplained]

I agree. The collar is beautiful!

[@noobiekinda]

Beautiful cape. Thank you so much for sharing! I see a glimpse of the collar on the dress you're wearing underneath 18:55 it seems to mimick the same collar line of the cape. I would love to see the dress as well. I bet it's stunning. I hope it will be in another video. 🙂

[@friedalepold]

Thank you! Yes, that’s a dress I made last year I think - I don’t think it will show up in another video, but I have some pictures of it on my Instagram and a short making of video there as well! 🥰

[@anieth]

This is stunning again. And the music is also perfect! I live where it rains most of the winter and miss the snow, so fun to see a "winter" video. I grew up in the high country where it snowed 8 months of the year, so rain in winter is, well, different. But really beautiful footage. Interesting to see you "working" it out physically against the manikin, almost like a cat rubbing on a cupboard...Please keep making these. I do hope you do!

[@friedalepold]

To be honest it is pretty rainy here too :D I was lucky that there was one very cold week where I could film the frost and the reveal - but I am really happy it could remind you a bit of a snowy winter 🥰

[@sophieinspired]

I would love to hear you talk about how long a project/ the steps take you. You make it look so flowy and magical 💖 thank you for sharing your expertise and art on youtube 💖

[@friedalepold]

That’s a good idea! I definitely should keep more track about how long things take for myself, so maybe I can add it to the video and remember it this way! Thank you 🥰

[@sophieinspired]

@@friedalepold awww! Happy to hear :)

[@ML-tj5xd]

Your channel has inspired me to learn how to sew and I’m so excited for that journey

[@friedalepold]

Oh I feel very honoured 🥰 if you ever have questions feel free to ask

[@jessicawright-tilles3227]

Simply gorgeous. I love how you create with delicacy. You take your time. You sew each stitch beautifully. Just beautiful. Thank you.

[@friedalepold]

Thank you for your nice words ♥️ sewing brings me so much peace and I’m happy that I can show this in my videos

[@grimnirnacht]

I love the collar design on the cape and the frost on the gloves is such a magical idea. It all turned out so beautiful. Really nice work 🖤

[@friedalepold]

Than you so much 🥰

[@MangoMintMickey]

Your work is so clean and precise, I love to see your process

[@friedalepold]

Thank you so much ♥️

[@MissDLinx]

This is beautiful, I might try something similar to your collar but line it with a quilted material or fur/ faux fur for a bit of extra warmth. I have no stomach for the cold😅 edt. I love your tape technique, it is rather brilliant for figuring out how something should lay!

[@friedalepold]

That sounds amazing! I’d love to see that 🥰 and thank you!

[@fashionstudio4367]

Good work with nice personality 😊❤

[@isi98ani7]

Watching your videos while I work on my own projects infuses the experience with a healing sense of calm, thank you.

[@friedalepold]

Thank you so much 🥰

[@melodysimonson1510]

What a beautiful cape! Your handstitching is amazing. All those little stitches. But, what other way to hem and finish facings but little stitches so they dint show. Absolutely exquisite!

[@thelastmedici4764]

🤗What a exquisite cape🤗Beautiful design, well chosen fabric.... This is perfection 🤗

[@boesliebchenr6828]

Omg so ein unfassbar zauberhaftes Cape, ich könnte stundenlang zuschauen. Mit welcher Geduld und Liebe zum Material, zum Design, zum Handwerk. Unglaublich schön zu sehen. Danke 🥰

[@char1949]

Your videos are so peaceful and I feel like your creations are from storybooks- So, so beautiful! I’d love to know your story- did you go to fashion school? Did you learn designing from family members? Your beautiful fabrics and creations are breathtaking. Thank you for sharing your talents with us!

Liebe Frieda, wie immer ein außergewöhnlich schönes Video! 💞 Wahnsinn! Dein Talent! 💞 Ich liebe es dir zu zusehen und wünsche dir alles Gute für 2023!❤️ Danke für das Schnittmuster! Ich werde es probieren, auch wenn es wahrscheinlich nicht an dein fertiges cape rankommt! 😂 Ich probiere es! 💞

[@madelinegrudens]

Where do I begin??? This was an exquisite project with the most beautiful details in simple elegance... The collar just captivated my attention immediately and kept me interested, then at the end you made the most delicate and frosty accessory - those gloves are pure beauty 😍... This video was also a masterpiece of editing and production! What a way to end a year and start the new one! Bravo 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@autumnseraph3104]

Yay!!! My favorite, beautiful, talented KZbinr ! Thank you Frieda ❤ I never expect for you to post, knowing that you do this in what little spare time you have, but it always feels like a gift when you do. 🥰🙏

[@friedalepold]

Thank you so much ♥️ I hope that next year I can show some work on commissions for example, so that I only have to film my work and won’t need a complete new project:)

[@autumnseraph3104]

All the very best of the New Year to you and everyone you love and respect. Your work is absolutely stunning. Where did you get your training - your stitching is so precise and your designs are just fearless. The cloak is beautiful. And the video was a masterclass. The editing, lighting, angles, sound cues and everything else that goes into the production are completely on point. - Cathy (&, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi

[@NellicaNella]

I am just about to make a cape with my mom, and we weren't sure about the hood! and this one is perfect ❤ thank you and best wishes in new year!

[@friedalepold]

This is such a simple hood design, but actually my favourite:) I’m happy I could help ♥️

[@melissaburke5682]

I now want to make this for the spring with gloves embroidered with flowers. You inspire me so much. Thank you for the pattern.

[@friedalepold]

That would be such a cool idea!! If you do it please show me! 🥰

[@estelledesigns]

Such a beautiful cape! I love the fantastical touch of the frosty gloves!! Thank you for sharing your creative process this year, we've loved it!

[@rachaelwebb6240]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful creations. They are all so beautiful and I love the fabric you have chosen for the cape ❤

[@gianb2585]

The gloves were such a delightful surprise! I'm working on something soon that is going to have an illusion tulle glove with some red marks on it, and I didn't even think of basting the pattern first then embroidering it on before sewing it. Thank you!

[@janets2979]

i enjoyed every minute of the making of your cape it was so beautifull and i hope we see more from you in the future thank you

[@hannahstraining7476]

Such a beautiful, fairy-tale cape. absolutely love the piecing on the the back of the collar, and your embroidered tulle gloves are an inspiration!

[@Gizmo2310]

Thank you very much for the pattern. I made a cape for myself from it and I am so glad with the outcome! My cape is very different from yours as I would look ridiculous in the garment of a fairy princess. My age and face would more likely remind you of Ms Rottenmeier from „Heidi“, so I had to interpret it accordingly. But I followed your pattern pieces exactly, especially for the collar, and even with my much heavier fabric it worked perfectly. A problem I had before with heavy capes is that they want to slide down and that they tend to strangle me because a lot of weight is tearing on the front closure. This doesn’t happen with your pattern. The pieces work perfectly together, the cape sits safely on my shoulders and it‘s very comfortable to wear. The collar fits neatly around my neck without constricting anywhere. I’m so happy with my cape, I will definetely make another one. Once again: Thank you so much for providing the pattern. Greetings from Munich!

[@somniumlucis]

this migth be a dumb question but how did you print the pattern? I have no idea how to get this on letter-sized paper (btw I'm new to all this sewing world)

[@Gizmo2310]

@@somniumlucis So sorry I didn't see your question earlier. But I couldn't have helped you anyways. I live in the same country as Frieda, so we use the same formats of paper. I know nothing about letter-sized paper.

[@maryhardcastle5362]

Thank you for sharing, I had made a cape yes, it was white, I lived in c.c. tex. And made it to walk along the beach the area has a high sidewalk as tourists go along and get a ice cone with a flavor I received compliments and got followed honked oh!

Giving me tips as I sew. Also the gloves you made were BEAUTIFUL and absolutely amazing. I have never seen anything like it. I am totally going to try and make some of my own. Maybe add some 3D objects to them too. Also, do you have any tips for when sewing with silk or fabrics similar to it? I'm working with it right now and its a new fabric for me.
