You Will Need (7 things)

  • Paper
  • Pencil
  • Sewing Gauge
  • Fabric Scissors

  • Matching Thread
  • Little Black Dress

Steps (6 steps, 35 minutes)

  1. 1

    Trace around your hand/ arm the length you want the gloves to be.

  2. 2

    Using your seam gauge draw a 1/4th an inch outline all around the hand, this will be your seam allowance.

  3. 3

    Cut the glove pattern out.

  4. 4

    Pin the pattern down onto your dress/fabric and cut around. I placed the edge of my glove at the hem so I wouldn't have to finish the end of the gloves myself.

  5. 5

    Pin the fabric pieces with the right sides together

  6. 6

    Sew all around the glove with a 1/4th an inch inseam. Repeat steps 4-6 for second glove.
