These are sewn into the mousquetaire of the glove and attached. Then there is the addition of 3 pure silk buttons to match the fabric.The thumb is then set in and the fourchettes are attached before the glove is closed.While Desdemona fabric may be flexible, it is also delicate and so this step is usually done by hand. Our machinist then inserts 3 button holes into the inside wrist of the Desdemona glove. Our button holer is a Pfaff machine (very temperamental) which is part of the Singer group. Next, the cut glove is placed under the button holer.These are for the thumbs and the fourchettes (the fourchettes are the material that forms the gusset between the fingers). After the body of the glove is cut, more fabric is then placed under two different and smaller dies.
Leather Opera Gloves: This Year’s Fashion Essential.Just throw on some TV or a couple of movies (I find that it takes me about 6 episodes of anime to do a pair of gloves in a thinner material like spandex, so that’s about 3 hours – pleather, vinyl, leather, and the like will take a bit longer) and go at it.South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands (GBP £) It takes longer, but it is far easier and prevents a lot of the issues of making sure that so many tiny and precise pieces remain lined up than sewing it on a machine first. You can fully handsew them, though I always find that I need to do a bit of resizing, which is easier to do on machine.
When making gloves, I always hand baste the fourchettes first, no matter the material.
If you can find a pattern that specifically mentions using non-stretch materials as an option, even better. The linked tutorial looks good, but I’d recommend purchasing a pattern rather than trying to draft your own on your first attempt, since the proportions and sizing are very easy to mess up on something like a glove. If you make non-gusseted gloves out of a non-stretch material, you will not be able to move your hands. One thing to keep in mind with non-stretch gloves is that you NEED gussets/fourchettes. After all, gloves have existed for centuries before spandex was invented, and they still make and sell gloves out of non-stretch materials like leather. It’s entirely possible (but not entirely fun, heh) to make gloves out of a non-stretch material. And make sure that you have enough fabric similar to the one that you’re making your gloves with so that you can make mockups and find the right way to make your gloves. I would recommend adding more space in each finger when you draft your pattern. I looked through tons of tutorials when I made my Shego gloves out of green pleather. Most tutorials say to use a fabric with 4-way stretch (like spandex) which makes it VERY hard to find one that is for non-stretch fabric. I’M KIDDING! But seriously, be warned that making gloves with non-stretch fabrics is rather difficult because of the flexible nature of hands.
