Pattern and Instructions: The Glampire Cape
The perfect cape for the spookiest season of the year! The Glampire Cape is an expansion of the Drama Club Cape pattern, with a simple straight front opening, an optional hood, and a longer length.
It’s great in black velvet lined with red satin (with press-on fangs, of course!) for all your costume fantasies, but it can also be a luxurious cool-weather basic in wool or gabardine.
We’re releasing this mid-month bonus pattern early so you’ll be able to create your own in time for Halloween plans. Happy sewing!
You'll find the tiled file (for printing at home on A4 or letter size sheets and taping together) and the A0 file (for printing at a copy shop like ThePlottedPattern.com). Please note that we have two size blocks, so make sure to download the correct files for the size you're making. If you have any questions about which size to sew, don't forget to read our blog post with all the details!
Don't forget to share your makes with the hashtags #glampirecape and #charmpatterns. I can't wait to see what you make!
xoxo,
Gertie

Gorgeous!
Thank you for providing this pattern early. Very thoughtful.
great photo's
These pictures are great. The last few gave me a giggle. Especially the one where Suzie is about to get her neck bitten. Her expression is priceless! 😄
It looks really cute in the short version too
This is a dream come true. I want a few long and at least two short ones. Oh, I can dream, right? I love the photoshoot. You are always so gorgeous and you seem to have had a lot of fun.
This would also be fabulous at Christmas with a fur trim. Think I need to make one in emerald green and also sapphire blue 💚💙
Will the long version of this go with the drama club? I’m thinking a rain cape/trench
I find this photoshoot a little creepy.
Adorable photoshoot story 😍🩸
What a cute photoshoot!!
What dress is Gertie wearing?!
It seems to be the Society Dress.
just a couple vamp queens on a monday night 🧛♀️ 🍷 🩸 now i need a velour society and a few velvet capes to play in!
Susie’s undergarment? For us busty girls, so hard to find large cup strapless. Please share!
Yes! I want to know the same thing.
Absolutely love it!
I couldn't Love This anymore!!! The photoshoot looks so fun, I am sure you & Susie had tons of giggles on the set!! The drama of the cape 😍I am in Love with this pattern & I cannot wait to add it to my wardrobe for everyday wear!! Thank You 💕💕
OMG the PLAID!!!
Gorgeous! 🥰🥰 I need one in each version!
It gorgeous, but way too hot for Florida. A little disappointed.
Just my thought ☹️
Beautiful inside and out!
How do you do it?! This is so crazy good... both patterns. What's more adorable than Suzie in that plaid version! You really should sell tickets to the photo shoots.... although, that means letting folks know what the pattern is ahead of time. Never mind. I would have LOVED to have been a fly on the wall for this one!!!!
Love it! Perfect for my witch costume ❤️
I’m sew excited!!!!!🧛🏻♀️🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Oh! Boy WOW! I love it
So great. What dress is Susie wearing?
It looks like a stanwick skirt with a boostier. I'm hoping the boostier is going to be the next foundations line pattern.
I love the hood expansion! This is my Ratched dream come true! 👻
Oh I’m loving this. Both long and shorter are awesome! I have been looking for a cape like this for quite some time. my mother made one back in the 70s and I was in love with her cape. Hers had slits in the sides for her hands and arms to come out. I have not seen a pattern similar to that since.
My mom had the same cape. I actually still have the cape. It is faded and well loved, but still wearable. I love the hand slits.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gorgeous work Team Gertie! Breathtakingly beautiful! 😍
I cannot contain my excitement right now! 😍 This makes my vampiric heart so happy 🖤
