Brilliant Sewing Tips 2: (Electric Boogaloo*)

*And yes, I add that every time that I use a “2” in a title to indicate the second part of a post. Because I am an idiot.

For those of you who don’t know, claughter713  is BRILLIANT!

She found me this page, which goes into great detail about making a 18^th century corset pattern. Out of cardboard.

 

That’s right, the Google-fu that totally failed me, claughter713  has it. In spades.

*runs around doing the happy dance and generally flailing like a monkey on crack*

Cheers Dears!

Hey! That's my friend Chole's blog! She got the idea from the patterns instructions for my RH711 (Golden Age of Piracy Stays pattern). =)

I am somehow unshocked that a cool idea like this came about as a result of something that you did.

Not. Shocked. At. All.

Every once in a while, I get a good idea. =)

Right. Just a few times. A day.

Yes, it is all Kass' idea, I was just the one crazy enough to take photos of the cardboard portion of the process.

BTW, the stays in that article are RH833 with the front stomacher. My favorite pair :D

The general consensus is that Kass is brilliant - and that you are a DOLL for doing the documentation of your work with this technique!
