I know I used a hand draw font too for one of my kid's birthdays. It was every letter of the alphabet drawn like the superman insignia thingy!!! I'm trying to find it!!

dude you are da bomb elizabeth!!!!!!!!!! I was going to make them out of a large piece of felt, but I couldn't figure out the whole "neck" part ....do you tink if I just attached a ribbon to the neck part that it would be good, or do you think just using a large t-shirt would be better?

 

[mummytothree]

I liked the t-shirt so they could slip it on and off them selves!!! This isn't a very good picture but you can see it on my 4 year old, my 4 year old nephew, 2 year old and 1 year old niece!!

ok...t-shirt it is !!!!!! did you just do the designs with felt though?

 

[mummytothree]

I didn't do a design on the cape but if you can see their little "cuffs" I did do those with felt and they were soooooooooooooo easy!!! So I bet they would be just as easy to do on the capes!!!
