TUTORIAL - A WITCH NIGHTGOWN AND HAT MADE FROM A FINGERLESS LACE GLOVE

Hello Everybody.

Hope all is well you.

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

I hope all of your wishes and prayers

get answered.

 

I would have posted sooner but I had surgery and

a liver biopsy. Boy that hurts! Do not let anyone tell

you any differently.

This has been a bad year - hope next year is better!

 

EASY, PEASEY AND FAST!!!

 

I made a nightgown with a witch hat, so I hope

you like this tutorial that I am posting. This was

supposed to be the tutorial right after Halloween,

sorry it has taken me so long to present it to you.

 

This is not your regular tutorial so you must bear

with me.

I forgot to take a picture of the actual glove that I

used, so I have used a picture from the net to give

you an idea of what the glove looked like that I

used.

 

Also I forgot to take many pics because I was not

sure that what I wanted to make would even work.

But it did!!

I would have made another one, but I only had this

one glove. It belonged to my daughter so this is

special to me.

So here goes!!

 

My lace glove was an old glove that had a thumb in it.

If you do not want a witch hat then use a lace glove and

cut off the fingers and thumb. Also make sure that the lace

glove is not that long. Be sure to measure the glove, 

you want a short one like the one you see here.

This is a navy blue fingerless glove.
What you want

and need for my tutorial is a lace glove that has a
thumb in it like this one to make

the nightgown with witch hat.

Tutorial is below.

 

This is what the set looks like when finished.

You can't even tell or notice the 

size of the lace print. 

 

Here is the nightgown alone.

 

Here is the witch hat alone.

 

The lace I used was a small

lace, but not to skinny. Use

what you like.

 

Look at the lace glove that you have.

See, from the finger to the end of the

thumb, cut that section off cause that

is the witch hat. Set that piece aside.

The rest of the lace glove is easy to

finish. Be sure to turn the glove

to the inside and Just sew up that seam.

Turn it right side out and there is your

nightgown with a small seam.

I used tiny black ribbon for the straps

and also for the belt. Just sew or glue

the belt and straps in place.

 The nightgown could be

strapless if you want it to be displayed

on a bed.

 

Sorry about this pic, I cannot figure out how to turn

it!

Here I show you the thumb piece that I cut off. If your
piece that you cut off does not have a seam in it, then
just sew a seam starting at the top and sew down to
the end of the lace. Anyway, you have the idea.

 

I was lucky that this particular glove had a seam already.

If it does not have a seam, then sew one like this.

 

Then sew the top closed. I always hand stitch with

quilting thread cause it is stronger.

 

When you finish turn it to the right side. The

shape of the hat should be similar to mine.

 

Take a piece of lace and measure it around the

base of the hat and double the measurement if

you want it really ruffled, if not then do as you

feel. Anyway ruffle it and knot the thread off.

 

Sew the lace to the outside of the hat.

FINISHED!!!

Thank you for visiting me!!
