Red Silk Sweetheart – WIP2
This corset is a remake of an earlier corset that had a serious drafting error. As long as I had to re-make it, I made some other improvements over the earlier corset. This one has a slightly smaller waistline (at the customer’s request), spiral boning around most of the body (instead of spring steel flats), and to accommodate the altered shape the boning is single and each spaced slightly less than 1/2″ apart.
At this point the corset is nearly finished, and I am hoping to get a bit more done tonight. All it needs is the edging, lace, grommets, and the backing bone for the busk. Unfortunately, I won’t have time for sewing tomorrow, or most of Thursday, but I am still hoping to have final photos by Friday at the latest. There are a couple other orders that will need attention as soon as the customers get back to me with info, and I am hoping to start work on the Asian-inspired costumes for Nova Albion.
