Tatted Edge for Gloves

I received a pretty cream colored gloves for Christmas, and I thought how nice they would look with a pretty tatted navy edging. So I searched all my tatting books until I found the perfect edging. I found it in an old Dover book "Tatting Doilies & Edgings" by Rita Weiss. I used Oren Bayan 50 color #747 Navy with a silver lined crystal bead. The motif on the top of the glove is from Patty Duff's "Mini Tats Book" Mofif #21.
Here is a close up of the gloves.

I also finished some crosses that I made for a friend and will post them next time.
I'm not sure how to count this in the motif challenge, But there are two motifs and 2 seperate edgings, so I guess this would be Motif # 7, 8, 9 & 10. I'm doing pretty good this time on the challenge, I only started this challenge on January 1, 2009 and I'm already up to #10. I actually have much more than that done already, but I need to take pictures of everything. I wonder how quickly I can get this challenge completed. The first time I did the challenge, It took me 10 months to complete.
I just wanted to thank Sharon and the gang for hosting the challenge and show-casing what all we have been tatting.
Happy Tatting everyone!
