Mademoiselle Marionette 2018 Part 22

A smartly dressed lady out on the town will of course have a snazzy pair of Gloves to go with her outfit.

White Glove Cut Out

The problem with making the Gloves was two-fold. One was the curvature of the arms and the other was how to work around the Marionettes strings.

The later was the easiest to sort out. I decided to make the Gloves foldable at the Top along with a side Split. The former problem was more difficult to overcome.

In the end I placed the arm on a piece of cloth and drew around it. I then had to very carefully bend the cloth around the curve in the arm before I cut it. Otherwise when I opened it out there would be a massive gap.

Pair of Red Gloves

Obviously this is a little time consuming continually measuring every time I wanted to make a Glove. Also once the Marionette was gifted I would not be unable to more. Therefore I drew around each Glove so I would have it for perpetuity.

Trio of Glove Pairs

 

I made a trio of Glove pairs in the French Flag colours. In this photograph you can see the Top Fold and the Side Split clearly.

Blue Party Gloves

 

The final pair of Gloves were the Party ones. A touch of sparkly ribbon to add the finishing touch.
