and from inside.
The stitches were done according to my diagram, the only difference is I did round the bottom edge instead of stitching straight across. I tell myself the irregularity of stitches from the interior lets you know a human made this corset, not a machine. I like the arrows to point toward the waist, leading the eye up and toward the center of the body rather than directing it outward.
Flossing is a hand killer, kudos to all of you who added it to your sew along corsets. Did you embroider with a hot water bottle nearby to rest your weary hand on like I did?

I used my Japanese thimble. I made it, and it's not very pretty, but it does the job. Without it, I would never have made it!
ReplyDeleteYes thimbles are a must! I broke 5 needles doing the flossing!
