EMBROIDERY GLOVES

I kiss the pens!
Regular long leather gloves turn into a unique accessory thanks to the iridescent thread of beads from Svarovski.
To embroider a pair of gloves, you will need a string of beads approx. 2.6 m. First, draw a motive with a tailor's chalk, and then wash the string of beads along the lines of the motif with small stitches.

BAG OF VELVET (1) and Wreath of flowers (2)
VELVET BAG
Sew it from the fabric of the dress - and it will become a stylish addition to it!
For it you need a piece of velvet 55 cm long and 140 cm wide, lining fabric 20 cm long and 140 cm wide, satin ribbon 2.5 cm wide, 1.5 m long.

In the photo: diagram of a handbag with dimensions in cm.
You need to cut out 1 part according to the specified size, then cut it along the transverse line = grind + lining. Seam allowances = 1 cm across all sections.
Cutting:
Velvet: detail of a handbag 2x with a fold
Fold 2x
Lining fabric: 2x fold
Sewing:
Fold the details of the handbag face to face, grind the side and bottom sections. Stitch the lining to the grind, in the middle leave a hole of approx.10 cm for eversion. Iron the allowances on the inside and outside parts along the straight outside edge to the wrong side and sew. Pull the facing with a lining face to face on a handbag, grind the rounded top edges. Cut off the allowances close to the stitch; cut off at roundings several times.
Turn the handbag out, put the inside inside, iron the upper edges, stitch at a distance of 1.5 cm for the drawstring, sew a hole on the lining.
Mark the middle on the ribbon and sew a 2 cm long loop. Pull one half of the ribbon through the drawstring on the front of the bag and the other half through the drawstring on the back. Collect the bag. Pull one end of the ribbon through the loop and tie the ends of the ribbon with a bow.
Thin hair hoop is decorated with flowers made of suede and metallic leather. Ideal for those who do not have enough time for a long installation.

◄ Motives for the petals of the flowers of the hoop.
You will need: relatively thick suede size. 35x40 cm, thinner leather "metallic" size. 15 x 20 cm.
The lower part (see diagram below) 2x cut out of suede.
As a substrate for each individual flower, cut 4 circles of dia. 4 cm.
Large two-tone flowers: cut 9 large petals from suede and 9 small petals from metallic leather. Stick small petals to large ones. Fold the petals along the stroke at the bottom of the pattern (combine the petals from the skin "metallic"). Secure with glue. Place the petals next to each other on a circle (substrate for each individual flower). Glue the matching edges of the petals. Glue the circles to the bottom.
