Gloves!

I've been looking around a lot of sites for the perfect pair of gloves for my Halloween costume and I just haven't found the right pair.  The thought occured to me that I could & should make them.  I forgot that I had some left over lace from my 2008 18th century costume & that it had a nice scalloped edge on it.  If I have enough left over I could make really nice wrist length gloves.  How silly of me not to think of this before.  I'm thinking of using this pattern: http://voguepatterns.mccall.com/v8608-products-10484.php?page_id=181 because they're the right length.  Very happy too because Vogue patterns are also on sale this weekend!

EDIT: I have decided to put this project off a little.  This sale goes on all the time. Since I don't need them until Halloween, I am going to focus on my other projects first.

  2. Thanks! I'm looking for something that is wrist length though. They are really nice though. Definitely something to consider for another outfit.
