Corset!!!

[darkgaze2002]

So I've been putting off making any new corsets recently. well. for about three years now. My recent attempts have been not so good, the first one last year or two years ago just was an utter failure and has been a constant sore spot for me. I was trying to add piping details to the seams and it just.... yeah. I didn't attempt another one for 18

I do not have time to look at the links right now but this post is exciting me. I am happy you are inspired and hopefully I will have time on top of the large project I have to do for the SO to make a corset for myself for Archon this year. I have so many but I need something to go with the 6000 Leagues theme of this year's tea. Or maybe I can barrow some pieces from other people to make my costume for the tea work out right... I really have to get to work on redesigning a doublet for the SO so he will be happy. Seems I make him larger projects then myself these days. Grrr.

I'm really trying hard to get back into sewing. Reviewing pictures of myself recently in the corsets I have show that I just don't have enough support in the bosom area and I have muffin affect, which i hate. So I'm redesigning this pattern

I hope I can do it, I really need to start doing this stuff again, I've been sidetracked by the Japanese stuff.
