DIY Princess Gloves and a Fun-Filled Inter-House Sports Event

Happy Sunday dear Hivers, I hope you are all having a great, fun, and relaxing weekend, yay! It's another exciting Hive Learners creative Sunday edition where we share our fun creative talent, as usual, I will share with us another interesting creation of mine, which I made sometime last week.

My daughter's school had organized an inter-house sports event for students, teachers, and parents, it was a fun day for us all, engaging in competing sports activities such as match parade, racing, etc, especially for us parents who hardly engage in sports activities due to our tight schedule at wort, it was a great opportunity for us to exercise our muscles.

Another highlight of the day was that different houses represented were distinguished by different unique colors, from gold, purple, wine, and orange.

My daughters were both in gold house, so I volunteered to make their gold house princess ball gown with princess gloves, you will find the making process of the ball gown here as I will be sharing with us the gloves-making process, it is very easy to make, you can see how beautiful the princess looks in her dress, and even adults can also use this gloves, in case you have an upcoming birthday shoot, as long as you have a stretchy fabric, needle and thread, that's all you need to make these gloves, and yea, it definitely adds that royal touch to your outfit, as gloves are commonly worn by the royals.

Without further ado, let's get right into the making process.

As I stated before, make sure the fabric you are using is a quality stretchy fabric, I used a velvet fabric for this project, as you can see in the images, I also used this same fabric to design some parts of her dress,

• The first step is placing your hand on plain paper and tracing it out with a pencil, trace your fingers out and up to the length you desire for the gloves, it could be wrist or elbow length

• Next, I folded the fabric in two, before placing the drafted paper on the fabric, pinning it down because velvet fabric can be very unstable when sewing

• Continuing, I sewed around the drawn hand pattern, making sure to leave a quarter of an inch allowance when sewing, also, guide the fabric well to prevent folds,

• Here is what the sewed fabric looks like, lastly, I trimmed out the finger shape, very close to the sewn area, but not too close to cut the sewn part, and turned it inside out.

Here is how the perfectly fitted gloves turned out.

To crown it all, she won the best-dressed princess of the day, I attached a short video of the inter-house sports event to this post for a better experience, I hope you enjoy viewing, this event took me back memory lane of my time as a pupil, I hope it brings heartwarming memories for you as well.
