Projects: Regency Stays

[jaelie]

So they pretty much fit. There's a little oddness around the breast gussets, but I'll tweak them a little and they'll work until I make another set. I think as I get better and have more practice, fitting will become better, too. Fun, fun!

Oh, yeah. In case it wasn't clear before, these were entirely hand-sewn. Yes. I know I'm insane. And it's only the beginning! ^_^

Oh, and PLEASE forgive the totally NOT regency era shift - I don't have one yet so I used an old ren faire one!

Next up: Probably a dress from this pattern. That one looks the easiest for a first try...

Isn’t it funny that no matter how much it covers if its called underwear we become modest in it
