Hybrid Style Fully Corded Corset – WIP4-5

Apparently I had not gotten around to posting all the WIP images from July to this blog.  My apologies for that.  I have not actually worked on the hybrid style fully corded corset in nearly two months, but here are a couple more images of the progress I did make at that time.

Corded Hybrid Corset – WIP4 Detail – At this point I managed to finish cording the last two black panels of the corset, and the next day I managed to cord half of the gores (I’m not counting the two tiny ones, which are too small to cord and exist purely for aesthetic reasons). That meant I still needed to cord four goes and the four stomacher panels. I think that will be the half way point of total construction.

Corded Hybrid Corset – WIP5 – I finished cording all the panels! I had barely prepped enough cord. You can see the small coil of remainder. Thank goodness I pulled all the cord I thought I would need and then pulled a few more yards just to make sure! I could have washed more had I run out, but I’m glad to not have to go to the trouble. This puts me at what I estimate is the halfway point of the project, two weeks in.
