For Sam Wallace, making capes began with a request from her son. A not-so-easy request. He wanted capes for his birthday for all of his friends. She didn't know how to sew. But that didn't stop her from making capes so awesome, Sam earned a reputation that eventually led to a full-fledged custom cape business.
