owowow

I have now boned 4 corsets. One is fully finished, two need busks and one needs the shoulders stitching. I have run out of flat steel so the waistnipper will have to wait. I'll take the shop in 4, (presuming I have enough eyelets!) and pick up what I need to finish my bondage wear in town, then come home and get my ebay listing up. I can make the rest that they need up through the week. Working at this pace is ridiculous, my hands are cut to ribbons from pins, boning and my scissors slipping. All in all, this weekend, I have made 5 corsets and cut out 2 more. I need my head examining!!

Jesus that size 8 corset looks tiny. Anyone that thin should really not need a steel boned corset, but hey, mine is not to reason why, mine is to take the money!

I'm off for a tea break. And to soak my hands :(

I know. Believe me - I hardly need winching in any more (hell, I have a waist measurement people buy corsets in order to get). But there is one very good reason to wear metal boned corsets: the metal doesn't start to bend & dig into you after 5 minutes of wearing it, which plastic has a habit of doing.

That's very true, especially if the corset has that awful Rigilene stuff in. I am being very sizist :( I keep forgetting that you are only ickle :)
