Sewing inspiration

I've been thinking a lot about sewing lately.  I haven't actually been doing a lot of it, but I'm biding my time and adding to the list of projects to work on.  I saw this cape today at Aubin & Willis and want to attempt my own version.  That will bring my cape collection to 5 (all found at thrift stores and all a bit ridiculous), but I figure the more, the merrier.  Completely unrelated: this is a good article about protests in Egypt and beyond.
