18th C. stays in better light

Sort of like Oz: Do not look behind the curtain...I mean, too closely at the binding along the bottom edge. But I think I did OK for a very first corset!!







[EDIT] Ah ha! I've been given a tip over at an 18th C LJ site and was told my lacing is wrong. I vaguely knew that, but don't have a clue as to how to do the other kind no matter how I stare at it. Then the other question: I have to unlace this thing by myself at 2am...can I do that with the proper 18th C. lacing style?

That came out beautiful, especially for a first try! I've made one corset so far and it's definitely not easy!!

Can't wait to get my craft room all finished so I can start sewing again. :-)
