Finished?

I finally finished binding my corset. I don't know if I'll end up flossing it. At this point, I'm just tired of working on it and want to move on to something else. Flossing would probably be good, but I'm not sure that it's necessary. I'll have to try wearing the corset more and seeing if the bones have any inclination to twist or move around. If not, then I'm calling it done and not working on flossing. If it needs flossing... well, we'll see when I get around to it.

Next project is hoops/cage crinoline! The fabric (pillow ticking) is in the wash. I'll cut out the pieces tomorrow and probably also get them assembled.

Yay for finishing!

I have never done flossing so I really don't know if it makes much difference, but it sure is pretty.

It feels like it's taken me forever! So glad it's done.

I cut my bones a bit on the shorter side, assuming that I would floss. I'm worried that might affect things. And yes, it's really pretty!
