But I sure can trace! So I drew out three sets of gauntlets to be  embroidered by Mom (henceforth known as the Fockett &amp; Cox Sweatshop  ;-). Adorable Elizabethan designs based on two embroidery books I bought for her at Costume College (and I&#8217;d cite them here but Mom has the books now &#8212; she was very excited to get these and learn new stitch combinations and see all the neat projects, like sweet bags and such).\u00a0 We discussed colors and additional decorations, like tiny spangles and beads (Mom loves the bling; something I <em>did<\/em> inherit from her).<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll tack the embroidered cuffs onto several pairs of vintage gloves collected by Sarah and me. Add a little lace edging, and voila, a very simplistic facsimile of <a href=\"http:\/\/collections.vam.ac.uk\/item\/O15343\/gloves\/\">these<\/a>. My designs aren&#8217;t anywhere as dense because I wanted to make sure Mom could finish a couple of them in the month we have before <a href=\"http:\/\/muchado.sebastopolschools.org\/\">Much Ado About Sebastapol<\/a>. I simply drew two or three connected motifs on the front of each cuff and one on the back. Still, they should look pretty and evoke the period examples.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"640\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 640px;
