Honestly, I did not intend this to be "fashion week" at All Things Wonderful. Rather, I have been doing quite a bit of sewing lately, and have stumbled upon articles and fun things I wanted to share with you.
I absolutely love the look of corsets, I suppose because they were such an old world staple in a woman's wardrobe for centuries, and they look so feminine. Anyway, I found this great site, for those of us who really enjoy sewing called Thread Banger, where you can find all things fashion, and fashion DYI.
I found this tutorial, from Thread Banger, on the easy way to make a corset (and a pair of boxers for either your man, or a pair of PJ bottoms for yourself). Here is the link to the tutorial, Corset Tutorial and remember you can make your corset as plain or embellished as you like. If you would rather make a hard copy on paper of the tutorial, go here and then for the instructions on how to make your actual corset pattern, go here.
Personally, I don't think I would use an old t-shirt as my corset liner as they did in the tutorial video, but you can if you like. I think a lighter fabric, like muslin (which I have tons of) would suit me better, and I think some vintage lace would be tres chic!
Hope you enjoy--and if you make a corset, I would love to see it!
Peace and Cheers,
