So my sister in law had me make her a corset to wear to the ren fair this past Saturday. Unfortunately she did not show up, so my beautiful corset was not given the appreciation that it should have gotten. I am totally in love with it!  I think it’s my best corset yet.  I used a different sewing technique to put the channels in than I did with my first corset, and it looks fabulous!!!

Here it is!

It was a great day overall. But woe is me, my sewing is NEVER done. I am still trying to finish Blakes outfit. It is coming along very well. The doublet is about 85% done, with the major construction pieces sewed, now it’s just adding trim and buttons, and the grommets to tie the sleeves. Then onto his pants and the hat! Whew, after all of that, if ANYONE wants custom work from me, I am going to have to charge, this stuff take a lot of time!
