Title: Corset
Post by: Rin on February 24, 2010, 05:55:07 PM
I want to make my baby sister a underbust corset for her 17th birthday and I was wondering if anyone knew any easy step-by-step instructions on how.

I figured she'd appreciate it more then my garb hand-me-downs and I already have some fabulous fabric I bought years ago waiting for the right project...

Thanks for the help!

it is AMAZING. easy to follow. and yields amazing results :). I've made two so far :)
