Hot Pink & Teal: Lost Colours Cape

This is the Lost Colours Cape. This cape is a tribute to two colours dropped from Gilbert Baker's Pride flag, which in 1978 debuted with eight colours, each symbolizing a unique aspect of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. The original flag included hot pink for sexuality and turquoise for art/magic. These colours were later omitted due to practical reasons - and they are back now in this quilted cape! The backing is found fabric from my local thrift shop.
