SUPPLIES FOR
PAST PATTERNS 720: MADAM FOY CORSET
The
chart below is a guideline based on the list of required supplies by Past
Patterns. It is very possible you will want different items or lengths
than those listed in the chart. The length of busk and bones may vary
depending on any fitting changes you make, the accuracy of your cutting
and sewing, the way the top and bottom of the corset is finished, and
even the thickness of fabric. It is suggested that if you are fitting
the corset to specific measurements you complete it up to the boning channel
step and then measure it for the correct bone length and number of grommets.
If you simply want to create a stock size corset, the below guidelines
are a good way to start.
