Corset Joy!
I have to admit I dreaded trying on my corset dummy. It lay on my floor for a week before I got Jo to lace me up. This is the first corset I've drafted from scratch. That's right ladies and gents, I didn't use a pattern at all - I used the corset drafting class from Your Wardrobe Unlock'd, and drafted it all according to my own

Woohoo! It works! I mean, not like I didn't think it would, but it's great to see you use it, follow it all the way through successfully, and end up with a corset that fits! Fantastic! Well done!

Thanks! I've been meaning to point you to this entry to proudly show you how the dummy turned out =)
It really is a very easy class to follow and it sure seems to work! Thanks!
My coutil arrived on friday so I'm hoping to start on the real thing this week.
