Corset Question!!
Well, I'm making a dress with a corset as the top part, but heres the thing. I'm using the threadbanger pattern, but whenever I measure my waist it comes out wayyy farther than my bust points and when I try to draw the lines, the very side of the corset pattern, instead of the diagonal line drawing in, it draws out. Is this okay or am I doing something wrong? It says to take your waist measurement (32), subract 2 (30), then divide by 2 (15). But my bust measurement only goes out to 10.5
So...yeah.
Any advice?
AHA! nevermind I got it all figured out, what with me and my smarts
ooh, you will have to post pictures when your finished, it sounds like a cool dress.
I will! I finished the corset last night and I need eyelets and a setter and some netting but I think I'll be able to go to the fabric store today.
Alrighty...I figured I'd post pics as to how the dressmaking is going...
Here they are...
the skirt isn't hemmed or finished yet, but I'll do that next week sometime
ooh, that's looking really cool! I love your necklace your wearing!
or is it a choker? Oh well, I just think its looks cool
I like the material you made the corset out of too,
Oh thanks! Actually I made the choker by out of black lace and red ribbon, and I was like "I should make a dress to go with this!"
:]
Ha, good idea! Good luck with the rest of the dress!
