kreleia said... Excellent review. I really like your suggestions of using an interlining between the front fabric and the lining fabric, and making the bone casings that way. I picked up this pattern on a whim, and when I read that they wanted you to put the boning directly onto the wrong side of the outside fabric, I visualized a very, very lumpy bustier - it would look awful, unless you were to use a heavyweight weave. I'm pretty sure most people don't want that to be the case. That being said, I think I'm going to give this a try since I would be using it for exactly what you said - a costume. :) Thanks a bunch for the great tips and advice! 6/2/12 8:07 PM
