I'm sure I had something interesting to say...
However, all I can think of is that I finished making my corset on Sunday, and now it is sitting on the dress-maker's dummy (affectionately known as Audrey), on top of my green Medieval dress (from which I have torn the sleees, so I can wear it), and looking decidedly good.
(It's got to be good if I keep wanting to slip my arm round her waist, right?)
Unfortunately, it looks better on Audrey than it does on me, owing to the fact that the boning is simply Rigline,or however you spell it. Fine, until you breathe, or move. Then it simply bends. But the shape is great.
So, I'll go and try and find some of those suggested alternatives in a hardware store, and possibly re-bone it, 'coz it looks good. Or possibly just make another. Anyone in NZ got suggestions for boning available in Mitre10?
