finished corset

i've finally finished my corset! here are some pics!



i'm really pleased with the way it turned out, and it's really comfy too! a bit tight round the rib cage, but you've gotta suffer to be beautiful, right! in the flesh i think the red stitching looks a bit stark, but i'm getting used to it now, and my family said it was great, so maybe it's just because i was so close to it when i was stitching it.
i don't think you can see, but i've had a massive tidy up in my room, my friend gemma came round and we had a mad blitz. it's so much better, and makes me really eager to sew every morning - i love being on holiday!
now i just need to make a crinoline and petticaot and the undies are all done!

thank you! everyone on corsetmakers has said prety much the same thing about the stitching! i think next time i'll go for pink though, maybe pink all over, for a set of C18th stays!
