Winter Gloves - From the Mind of Christine McConnell

Comments

I just found this patreon and i'm absolutely in love! Does anybody know how to get access to the glove pattern she mentions in this video? I joined at the highest tier that was available (the rest said they were closed for now) but it's not coming up in the search. Has anyone else joined recently and found a way to access the patterns and docs that go with the videos? I can see some stuff is hidden and I'm wondering if I need to increase my pledge to find those posts somehow.

They are so beautiful and clever too.

Tania McIntyre

Your patience is beyond! What stunning results!

Jill Brewer

Absolutely fabulous! 🤎 I really enjoyed this video! TBH, I probably will never make my own gloves but using the conductive thread and the button maker I definitely WILL USE! ❤️❤️‍🔥❤️ Thx for sharing your talent

MurrieCurl

Wow Christine, they are absolutely gorgeous! Future me will hopefully try this! Love from snowy Sweden (I just moved here)

Hannah Graham-de Vries

The gloves came out so chic and elegant 🙂 love the idea to modernize them slightly for functionality📱and the length is great because your wrists will never get cold!

Jess Meister

I just realized this was uploaded on my birthday 🥰 I am a little late watching it but it was a good episode 🤗

Tricia hedglin

Ok Colonel Mustard! I clapped at the end shot ✨

One Chance Fancy

Woman! You’re barmy, bonkers, crazy and a little bit mad making your own gloves! I ADORE you!!! 🥰😜😂

Emma

I guess I’m lucky I inherited my grandmother’s hands and her many pairs of 1950’s gloves. Yes, I proudly wear a dead woman’s gloves!😆

AndreaCronin

These are incredible!!!! WOW, I can’t wait to test it out!!!

Shelby Snow

I LOVED this episode! I was just thinking about how hard it is to find gloves that fit well and have all of the details that you included. I can’t wait to try to make a pair myself! Would you be able to include a list of supplies needed for this project? Thanks! 🙏😊

Kat

Love love love love!

Deborah Wiltshire Whaley

So enjoyable to watch. My entire family were glove makers from the time both sets of my grandparents came to the US straight through to the next generation. My mother is a professional glove maker; I can't wait to watch this episode with her. (PS: We're from Gloversville, which used to be the home of many global glove brands!)

I was today years old when I realized how conductive thread works.

YouDontGetAnyLemonade

You do beautiful work, and even though I don’t think I’m going to be making any Victorian gloves for myself, I will be adding that star stitch on some of my gloves so that I can use my phone. That is a great idea!

Dawn Hutchins

Sorry Honey. When you get old, your hands will change and get bigger. I now know why my grandma wore her rings on a chain around neck. I need to resize my wedding ring for a second time. Gorgeous gloves a young beautiful hands, take good care of them.

Lori Hammer

Love this project! Christine there is a lamp shade maker that I think You'll love , her account is called Ace of Shades on Instagram, I think her projects might inspire You. As soon as I saw her video I thought of You

Haley H

These are gorgeous and thanks for the beeswax tip!

Stacey Rowell

I’ve never found gloves to be very warm in general (it can get wicked cold in the winter where I live). You wouldn’t want to shovel snow in these! I generally keep a pair of inexpensive knit gloves with me and pull on the fancy gloves I’ve made over those when it’s particularly cold. If that isn’t going to be warm enough, it’s store bought mittens all the way 🥶!

Welikemeatloaf

Do you find that’s the fabric you used keeps the hands warm enough? Do you have recommendations for fabrics that will keep the hands warm yet have the stretch needed?

jennifer lopez

Hand stitching is key!!!! Lots of fiddley little pieces…

Welikemeatloaf

The gloves are lovely! I started making gloves about 6 years ago. You can do this!! Its pretty much the way I do it. I have red gloves with bows on the wrists, blue gloves with buttons, green gloves, let’s do lunch gloves and someday someone will invite me to a fancy party and I will wear my opera length black velvet gloves and look just like Jackie Kennedy (not really, but it’s my fantasy, so I do!). For the less-Christine-adventurous, Vogue has a glove pattern and Butterick used to, too. You can also find vintage patterns on the Internet…

Welikemeatloaf

Can’t wait to see more home interior projects 🖤

Roses

Great episode!!!! Just got a haul of vintage dresses and was thinking about gloves and poof here you are with the pattern and everything. You are just the cat's pajamas. Thank you!!!

Killian Kincaide

Beeswax on the thread is so awesome! I keep a tube of Burt's Bees plain balm in my sewing kit.No more tangles (or tears!) ;-)

Tammy R Dowden

This really should be the sneaky trailer to a CM-modded Clue board and pieces.

Gincredible

I love this episode. Your videos are so therapeutic for me. You're a Victorian Gothic Bob Ross.

L.W. Nicholson

they are amazing! your videos are always so atmospheric and inspirational for a million projects <3

sofia

Christine, were you filming some of the footage at 5am??

Debbie Huang

Gosh same here. My piano teacher loved that I had really long fingers. Of course I hated it as a young child but now it doesn't bother me. All of my children are the same😊

Liana Palumbo

I am always amazed at your incredible capacity to start from a simple sketch, and magically end up with a neat, beautiful creation. So inspiring!

Emy AUBIN

Beautiful

DMCM

I'm so happy you love a beautiful pair of gloves as much as I do. I love that you did a glove episode :D <3

Heart W

Amazing! You never disappoint Christine.

Mononoke Adams

I really love the cuff of those gloves in particular! The shape and the contrast collar on the inside of the cuff really made the whole glove pop. And the conductive thread is genius! I may need to do this to all of my fabric gloves as soon as possible!

Emily Blamire

Gorgeous!

Jane Good

These are just beyond beautiful!

Brenda Fairbanks

I have always wanted to make my own gloves!!! Thank you! We are not worthy!

Thea Maia

So excited to see ! And looking forward when you will make a house tour video again:)

Martha Soria

I love that! I should take up piano at some point in my life because I can reach over a full octave.

Jennifer Treviño

Charlie Chaplin wrote in his autobiography that his mother supported his brother and himself sewing gloves by hand at the turn of the century. They all nearly starved because it paid so badly, but it was one of the only jobs a young mother could do at home and turn in as piece work.

Saltywench

My mom told me the story of a nurse saying I'd be a piano player when I was born because of my long fingers. (I did end up teaching myself how to play keyboard.)

Leslie Langenegger

Long finger gang! My dad says I have alien hands. BUT, I know I'm going to have really awesome and scary hands as an old lady. Makes me happy, you know??

Jennifer Treviño

The gloves are so beautiful!! I admire your patience so much with all your projects as well. I'd really need some of that too, I love sewing but will abandon a project for months if things don't go as planned on the first try :DD I'll need to remember: "what would Christine do?"

Olga Lepistö

The extra step and thought of conductive thread is what makes this a Christine project and why I love your work. You always go the extra mile and make things uniquely your own.

Dakota

Beautiful! 😍

Sophia Z

These are so elegant. The brown suede is a wonderful choice. The conduction thread is something I want to use on all my gloves now! I have to work on the weekends but l will look forward to watching this on Monday. 😃

Deb McGrath

Love the ending!

Elaine Harper

Lorena zitelli

I also struggle with the fit of vintage gloves (most gloves, really), so I'm delighted to see this pattern. Now to find some proper material and give it a whirl!

Tammi Harris-Crocheted Atrocities
