Print Thanks, great lesson +20

One of the most popular superheroes after Superman is Batman. He first appeared in comics in 1939 and remains the most beloved character ever. Outwardly, it is impossible to confuse him with any other superhero: a black mask, a bat suit and a long cloak.

Surely your child has long dreamed of being like him. Therefore, today you can please him with such a wonderful Batman mask. However, the child himself can do it, and you can be nearby and, if necessary, help in difficult times.


  • Black half cardboard
  • Black ribbon or waxed cord
  • Stationery glue
  • Pencil
  • Scissors

Step-by-step photo lesson:

On black half-cardboard we outline the silhouette of the Batman mask. It should not be too small or large for your head. After all, she will be uncomfortable. Therefore, it is better to immediately check and, if necessary, partially correct or redo it completely. Then we take scissors and carefully cut out the mask according to the intended silhouette.


We outline the silhouettes of the eyes on the mask. They will be approximately below the middle.


Using scissors, cut out the eyes according to the drawn silhouette.


Then measure the required length for the ties. There should be only one of them on each side.


Glue the ties to the back. Let the glue dry thoroughly before putting it on.


This completes the Batman mask made of colored paper. You should prepare a themed costume for this mask so that your child can fully feel like a superhero from a comic book. After all, what is Batman without his black suit with an emblem on the chest and a long cape on the back.


Which boy doesn’t want to feel like a hero, ideally Batman? Fortunately, this childhood dream is easy to fulfill - just sew a New Year's Batman costume with your own hands for a holiday in kindergarten or school. And how fun it will be to go to the Christmas tree in this costume and “fly” among other mummers. And, believe me, such a suit will not be worn just once. At least at home, the child will stage a home performance more than once, imagining himself as a superhero.

Our New Year's Batman costume will consist of a top (jacket) with "muscles", trousers, a cape, a belt and a bat mask.

How to sew a Batman costume with your own hands - job description

Jacket for Batman costume

I decided to simplify the pattern of the sweater for the Batman carnival costume as much as possible; I approximated it based on a T-shirt that just fit my son. To do this, lay the T-shirt flat on the floor, place a sheet of paper on top and draw the necessary lines: shoulder seams, hem (we vary the length at our discretion), side seams.

Since the stretch velor fabric stretches well, you don’t have to worry that the upper part of the suit will not fit well on the child.

There’s also no need to be tricky with the sleeve: we just lengthen the pattern of the one on the T-shirt to the desired size. Here's what I got on paper.

To cut, we simply fold the fabric with the front side inward (since we remember that we need to cut out 2 sleeves and one part each for the back and front) and, not forgetting about the seam allowances (we make them 1 cm wide), cut out the cut according to contour.

Now let's take care of the muscles of our future Batman. I decided to make it from sheet synthetic padding: I copied the upper part (pectoral muscles) onto the padding polyester from the front pattern and then a rectangle - the “squares” of the abs. Unpretentious, easy to implement and effective!

We also sew “biceps” onto the sleeves. We still have the superhero Batman costume! This means that everything must be in shape.

Now we sew the shoulder seams of the jacket; then side seams. After this you can sew on the sleeves.

After assembling the product, we process the bottom of the jacket and sleeves.

To process the neckline, I used a crepe satin hem. Then it will not puff up and stretch. In order to cut out a piece from crepe satin, take our basic pattern for the front and back of the suit, step back 4-5 centimeters from the collar cutout and draw a line parallel to the head. Cut out the curved strip that you have obtained from the crepe satin (don’t forget about the seam allowances), place it with the front part of it on the front part of the neckline on the velor (separately in front, separately in back) and lay a connecting seam. This is what we got.

On the back we make a fastener from an air loop and a button.



Don't forget to trim the edges of the fastener; I also use a hem.

In general, our sweater from the New Year's Batman costume is ready, and now we can think about its decor. After watching more than one episode of this wonderful animated series with my son, I learned to draw the Batman emblem with my eyes closed. So, on the chest of our hero there should be a black emblem on a gold background. We make patterns and cut out the applique from the fabric.



We will sew the applique on a machine, this is what we will get in the end. I also added gold sequins and a glitter outline along the fabric.

Batman Costume Belt

Now let's take a look at the legendary hero's belt.

You don’t need a special pattern, just cut out a rectangle from gold brocade with a width of 24 cm and a length equal to your child’s waist circumference +5 cm.

We sew our belt by folding it in half lengthwise. We make decorative stitching.

In order for the Batman belt to fit well on the child, we sew 3 rows of elastic at equal distances. It is better to sew the elastic so that it is not visible under the raincoat: on the wrong side of the belt and only in the part that falls on the back.

Now the application. Cut out another emblem from faux leather; The same paper layout that we used to decorate the sweater will do. I made the oval from black sequins.

I decided to sew the appliqué for the belt by hand. Here's what you can see from the reverse side.

How to make a Batman mask

It's time to start the most difficult part of our Batman carnival costume - creating a mask with your own hands. Before starting work, I searched a lot on the Internet for various master classes and ideas, but I never found anything acceptable, although I must admit that I still tried to make it from papier-mâché. I won’t even describe what happened to me - darkness! Because, as always, on a sleepless night, a brilliant idea came to my mind. Use a regular black plastic carnival mask for the Batman mask.

Having removed all the extra decor (braid at the top of the mask, ties, etc.), I sat down to pattern the top of the mask with the ears sticking out.

Then, using the pattern, folding a piece of artificial leather in half, we cut out the most difficult part, after which we carefully glue the parts of our pattern to the mask on both sides. In order for the ears to stick out, using the same pattern, I cut out 2 pieces of cardboard and inserted them into the details of the ears of the Batman mask.

The gluing process is quite labor-intensive, but doable; do not forget about safety precautions and remember that the fabric will not stick to the metal parts of the mask.



According to the prototype from the cartoon, the hood that covers the head is missing. Let's make a pattern. We use velor for the hood.

Sew the hood; We process the inner seam using the thermo-method using a candle.

We sew the finished hood in three places to the Batman mask: near the ears and on the forehead. Then we try all this beauty on the child and grab the hood under the chin. Thus we get a mask-helmet.

Batman costume

We lay out the fabric (crepatin) on the floor and draw the future cloak on it.

Cut out Batman's cape; The cut edge can be easily processed using a candle.

Now we make a collar with two eyelets so that you can fasten the cape to the jacket of the Batman costume.

Accordingly, we sew 2 buttons on the jacket just below the shoulder seam.

Sewing trousers for a Batman costume is even easier: just make a pattern based on the trousers that currently fit the child (as we did with a T-shirt at the beginning of our master class), and sew a copy of them from velor, and the bottom can be gathered with elastic.

That's it, our Batman carnival costume is ready!

  • Both parts C are attached above the eyes - these are the eyebrows.
  • The nose is attached between the eyes and a hole is cut out on the base along its contour.
  • You need cuts from the eyebrows up. You should get a sloping forehead. Incisions are made around the entire circumference of the head.
  • For a sloping forehead, cuts above the eyebrows are also necessary.
  • Then you need to attach a black strip to your forehead using electrical tape.
  • Stencils E must be inserted into the curved cut as shown in the figure. Then you need to align the ears and attach with tape.
  • Next, seal the cuts with tape around the entire circumference of the head to create a neat crease.
  • We use 2 stencils F. These parts need to be glued to the back to add volume.
  • G stencils are glued to the front of the ear. Black paper will help close the gaps.
  • Two triangles will help add volume. They are folded in the center and glued to both sides.
