m_of_disguiseI was going back over my previous blog entry for the 1872 corset, and noticed that I had mentioned lengthening the waist. Ruh-roh. I do not remember doing that. I had thought that the pattern fit me right out of the package, and had cut out the pieces for the current corset under than assumption. And, of course, confident in that, I hadn't done a mockup for the new one.
Hmmm...
I still have plenty of the purple silk left to cut out new body pieces if I need to, I would just have to order more coutil for the strength layer. I think I'm going to do a quick fitting tonight and see how things look, and if it is indeed too short-waisted, then I'll order some new coutil.
At least I don't have to redo all the embroidery since the bust gussets won't change size!
