Moment of Truth

I got my stays put together enough to try on last night, and I'm quite pleased with the fit. I did a mock-up, but I’m still never quite sure how corsets and stays are going to work out. Next I’ll tackle the cross-wise bones. They’re obviously necessary on the stomacher, but I’ll put them on the main body pieces too.

That's great! It's always a tense moment when you do the first try-on. The real thing is always a bit different from the mock-ups.

I hate that you have to get so far along before you really know if it fits.

Good luck with yours. It's kind of fun knowing someone else is working on a similar project at the same time.
