To all who mourn in Israel, He will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the LORD has planted for his own glory. Isaiah 61:3

Truly Victorian S Bend Corset Done!! Huzzah!!

OHMYGOSH!!  Am I so in love with this corset!  I have made 6 corsets and 1 corselette and my fabulous corset making friend Josie has made two corsets.  I love them all!  I love wearing them and the color combinations of them (I stole the ideas for the color combinations from the Victorians...).  But I am IN LOVE with this one!!  Heather!  You are my hero!!  Seriously!  I love the way this corset feels when I am wearing it!  I feel so supported!  The way it hugs my hips and nips in my waist and the fabulous hour glass shape it gives my...um...er...mature figure, is so great!!  Ha!!!  Ok, I think I am getting across the idea that this is a seriously fabulous corset pattern!


Ok, so here are the pictures I took...Trying to look Victorian and serious...


Here we are at the "shoulders" part of "Head and Shoulders.  Knees and Toes"!  hahahaha!!!


Side view.  I didn't use a Spoon busk and the bottom front of the corset sort of stuck out...so I bent the bottom of the busk so that it curved nicely over my tummy!


Trying to look cute!  ha!


I am so embarrassed!  My right knee is showing!  Scandalous!


The only artistic way I could show the back without just standing there.  I am putting in my hair, the fabulous dragonfly comb that my sweet Mama got for me!


Another side view.  Again, I just cannot say enough how wonderful, comfortable, beautiful and awesome this corset is!
