The Hand Glove Pattern/ Help

[BackPorchPuppet]

Hello again all!

So Im making a Hand Glove puppet I suppose you can call it. A Trekki Monster/Ernie/Rowlf/Fozzie kinda deal where the hands are actually gloves.

Now Im having issues with making a pattern and getting the gloves right, anyone have experience with this that wouldnt mind giving me some suggestions, or pointing me to a pattern, or sharing a pattern with me?

Love you all,
So Happy to know there are awesome puppet loves like myself out there.

use your hand

Just use your hand and draw a silhouette around. Leave some space for sewing. Put some fingers together if you want a 4 finger glove.

I used a glove pattern once with extra pieces for the thumb, and between the fingers. Its much more work and you won't notice the difference, specially if it is on fur. And in the case of fleece the stretch of the fabric gives you a nice fit.

I managed to make two gloves, they aren't the prettiest things in the world, but a decent attempt for a first try. Ill take some photos in a few and post them.
