Close, but no cigar

I have just a few more inches to apply the bias binding and then to do the back grommets and the corset is done. However, it's too late. I need another hour to finish, and I simply don't have another hour.

I'll have to wear something else to the wedding.

It was a valiant effort!!

Thank you! I think I'll finish it today.

I hope you found another nice bodice to wear? I was so excited to see you in your new outfit, but I am confident another wonderful opportunity to wear it will be on the horizon :)

Here's wishing all the best to the newly wedded couple!

I had a backup plan. I wore something similar to how you wore your version. Lord knows, I saw myself that it was a good combination!! And I got SOOOO many compliments on the skirt!!!!

So did you in your silver gown!! Beautiful!

Good Try! Corsets are always rather brutal, but hopefully you can amaze us all with it some other time. ;)

It was my first try! Gosh darn it, if only I hadn't gone out for cocktails the night before, I could have finished it. LOL!

What a shame, but I'm amazed that you managed to whip it up so amazingly quickly!

Considering it has 56 bones, I was surprised, too!! I don't think I followed the directions quite exactly as they called for flatlining, interlining, AND lining. Isn't that one too many linings?? I ignored the interlining as I couldn't find in the directions when they were supposed to be used. It's not as if the stitching was hidden, so what's it for? Eh, who cares! It's just for me!
