My driving concept bleeds of hot pink blood and black hand figures worn as gloves. I’d like for the gloves to pose similarly to a cusp grasp, the pink blood piling onto palms, spilling to the floor and mirroring the overflowing and overwhelming affects I’ve had since quarantining and experiencing a pandemic on campus. I’ll search for black, preferably thin and breathable fabric such that my hands feel just how tangibly open and vulnerable this whole experience was. I will also search for hot pink thread. (cotton muslin and universal pink thread)
One thing I quickly realized immediately in sewing my test material (a finger glove) is making sure enough fabric wraps around my entire finger. I also may want to consider One Size Fits all options if I want my finished wearable gloves to fit anyone. Another note was deciding what pattern / method I should sow my finger in place as to make my thread invisible as possible. I decided to sew in a back in forth motion compared to circle like, and then turn the cloth inside out to hide any messy seams to the best of my ability.
