Got a pair of plain gloves…

Oct 8, 2009

If not, I found this pair along with pink, brown and navy in the $1 sec­tion at JoAnns.

Simple Green Gloves

Cut out some flow­ers from cream felt using a Sizzix die Flower Lay­ers #3. Accent them with a sim­ple back­stitch using #543 embroi­dery floss.

Hand stitched felt flowers

Cut three leaves free hand and make a but­ter­fly out of the 2nd to small­est flower on the Sizzix die Flower Lay­ers using the same cream felt. Stitch a sim­ple back­stitch on these as well using the same #543 embroi­dery floss.

Accented leaves and butterfly

Attach a pearl bead in the cen­ter of two vin­tage but­tons using #543 embroi­dery floss.

Buttons with pearl bead center

Cre­ate 2 tulle flow­ers using white tulle gath­ered with #543 embroi­dery floss. Trim the edges of the tulle flower with pink­ing shears.

Tulle flowers

Layer the flow­ers together and attach each flower layer using Fabri-Tac  (I lay­ered the flow­ers in this order large flower, tulle flower, medium flower, small flower and but­ton). Attach the but­ter­fly to the pinky on the left hand glove using Fabri-Tac. Attach two leaves on the flower for the left hand glove and one leaf on the flower for the right hand glove.

You’re fin­ished and have a super cute pair of gloves for the win­ter. Terri has already made claims to these so it looks like I will be mak­ing another pair.

Finished gloves

Enjoy!
