I finished it last night aside from some trim I don't have in The Stash, and finishing the hems on the bottom front points.
So imagine the revers have lace trim and that there is a wide black satin ribbon closure at the top!


Also, for those interested, here is a picture of the original cape that inspired me:

BTW, beautiful cape. I love looking at your work (even if I don't always comment.)
