OK electrathone..ah yes that is a nice corset indeed..and pretty easy as well..it is a simplicity fashion historian pattern no.9769. this particular corset here is. vinyl with a lace overlay in the fro t and back with a two inch reduction. were you going to get this pattern? I picked this one IP for. 99cents at Hancock..on a monday..when they have their sales..check your local store out. if not then how can I help you.

thank you very kindly for the invite of beer....but only if its warm!! that's the way I like it!

( standing scratching my head, trikes to speak..gulp..gulp..exhale..) hmmm..you seem a bit like a black liquorice..bitter to the first lick, nasty to the first taste..but once aquired the taste..quite adictive. I certainly misjudged your vast knowledge on the craft of manufacturing..fabric or leather..damn..I could used that encyclopedia years ago through my trial and error stages, may not have so many gray hairs today! what's bummer cause them suckers do t like to leave once the have planted their derrière deep into he root..(unless your a blonde like myself then the circumstance of the folicle by far out weighs the depth..).. but never mind that...where were we..ah yes..the Buck naked trouser dropping seam stress...you have read your homework on the way material is weaved but I think you got overly excited to think about hitting g that "send" button before you turned to he page about" types "of fabrics in corsetry. generally most corsets are satin (well mine are anyway..unless they are custom ordered in another fabric) so I'm going to have to send ya off and do a prep work on your types of fabrics in this situation then come back here and tell me all about it..if you hear snoring..well..its just your horse very comfortable under a very soft cowhide bedspread..knock softly..

are you still interested??..

AHH..HHAAAAA..!! Matt was that an intended knee slapped or what? ..now,..I'm pretty sure that yurz fellow saddle makers aren't using ole regular coats n Clark polyester thread right?..I'm sure you too follow some kind of systematics when it comes to ways certain things are " typically " done in "your" trade right?..well in my trade which is a seamstress that specializes in corsetry, it is sort of a. ..."quality law".. if you will that seams are double if not triple stitched. As when we are working with..."can everyone say fabric?...f.a.b.r.I.c.." the stress point on the waist is so great thy ensuring a seam that is durable for the "years" our customers are promised their corset will last...can only come from reinforcement of the seams..stitched down one side and flipped over back up the opposite side then flipped back over and back down again! this enterlocks each seam and backs up the stitch so that it can withstand the stress without breakage when over laced (which most people do).. So, when I'm ready for a one on one course with a smartass saddleman from what was it..England, ill hit ya up there. .MATT. TAKE CARE

I don't understand Matt..were you talking to me? I just don't understand what you are refrencing to.

did you get the pictures in the last email. sent you about 20 the one you found included

OK cool I will get it and. send them.

OK it is uploaded let me know when you have seen it..I sync' my facebook account to this account so you can probably get to all of my pictures more easily if you know your way around his site well.. I have two. DB pages..corsetfitz ie my business is linked with my personal DB which is donna newton, but they both have my corset look on personal page for the folder named "my corsets" that should save you some time.. this phones keyboard is too small for typing fast so. get a lot of typos. .its not that I can't spell..LOL..the " DB" supposed. to be fb

giggle..OK I can do that..just a couple of questions about this corset.. OK..who is this corset for male or female? if its for a male my suggestion would be an underbust hourglass or an underbust Edwardian long line..(bottom rests just at the high hip) I will upload a pic of a corset pattern that I altered to achieve the desired look. I will upload it as my member pic because this is the only way I can get a pic to this site so it seems. it is a purple and black leopard edwardian corset pattern from simplicity..(ill pull out the pattern and get the number for you) I made into an underbust. the reason I suggest this particular corset for a man is because of its more squared attributes. it is real simple to construct and pretty much up and down seams ..boning on each aside of seam bind it and its done in about ten to twelve hours for a beginner. I will upload the pic so you can see it then ill tell ya about the best ladies style

a lot of my corsets are ready made and they sell just as fast. you can find the patterns for corsets cheap..I go on Mondays..Hancock fabrics sell whichever maker they decide..for 1.99 . I can never get out of there without spending less than fifteen bucks on patterns that reg run ten a piece any other days. I don't know if I covered all of the questions..but if not just ask again.

now let me add that unless one is on a strict waist training program which I'm sure ya know what that would consist of..you would not be able to tall the difference in a ready made vs. a custom fit.. providing it was a quality made corset and made correctly..they will turns heads just as fast..LOL and they too are so comfortable for hours of wear

fitting a person is how a custom corset is finished, but a ready-made corset is finished by what is called Rack size... which is the size 1 wears when they shop. a rack size corset is faster to make but doesn't fit "spacific" measurements perse.

what a great question. i have found out early on in my trade ( and unless men have actually worn them they will never know)..but corsets are a garment that is made to truly be your "second skin", with that said..there is no such thing as an easy corset style or easy corset construction.. because you either have built a corset that is " quality" made..or you built an "easy " fast peice of crap period. the benefits of building a quality constructed corset is simple..it will do what a true corset is meant to do which is to reshape the torso and reduce the waist..without distorting out of its intended shape..and stay with me here..thats on a "normal average" body shape..you get into making corsets that have to fit someone with a gut or a darier and those are areas that have to be controled inside the corset. .as well as hidden..heres the things that are dissapointing to say the least when you found out that taking the easy road was not worth your time..to make a corset quickly is kinda just lazy because you will take the same steps as above but you might cut your time by only stitching each seam once..(my corsets are quadruple stitched each seam).. heres something ti think about. .my corsets are four and five ( with tighter constrictors) layers thick. Thats individually made corsets pannel by pannel..then slapped together. quadruple stitched seams are time consuming themselves..but i can guerantee you that if it takes me sometimes an hor to have to rip out a seam with my seamripper...one will not rip open while one is tightlacing..wink. there are other points like tgis throughout the entire construction process that could be done quality wise or quickly but yhis example should give you the idea of why the effort is so worth the time it takes because when you put it on after that suffering...you want to be proud to wear it right..and you want it to make you look like you did in high school figuratively..so i canot give advice on how to slap a corset together in a 10 min to a corset video..as a tradesman quality for me is job one..

HAHAHA....how did i know thats what you were gona say??. Sure no problem i can get that info you, just give me a little time, i jumped into a patch sewing job both feet. In no experience has to be done by tomorrow so im shaking in my watered down boots..lol..but i will get right on that just there after. .Promise

very very very very very verrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyy.."sorry" slow..my point? it is almost kinda irretating to have to read all the very's. .to a certain extent,..people "wont" wait that long to view your sight..remember 1 thing..if nothing else..in the potential customers search page they will get back millions of other links that will take them right in.mthay dont have to wait!.so for you..that could be a killer for your business on thw internet. you get few chances to get it right here and take off..othwise youll be loat in the sea of pages..get your designer to make sure they do a page load check..there is a search engine that will test your page and tell you what if any problems it has and how to fix them for search engine optability..i can get you a link if need be..just somebfriendly advice already live through.good luck..i never saw your stuff got tired of waiting

Ahhh..i see..makes sence..(its early so forgive me if i used the wrong spelling for my usage of the word sence..lol) . what is ot that you do now if you dont mind me asking?..is it close to garment construction..fabric or other? i am not oposed to sharing the knowledge i have aquired since strickly specializing in steel stay corsetry. Actually if we expert dont teach others and train them in yhe spacifics of body modification specs...then ot will truly be a "lost art" the kids nowadays are not inerested in sewing initially, they are mostly interested in designing..but i say this to them.." the designs that a designer imagines will never be brought to really without us seamstresses...a designer cant sew..( ie..without the training of. dressmaking and construction)..but.. a seamstress CAN be a designer! I have been specializing in corsetry since 2000.. It has taken me ten plus years to finally get it right..it has been time consuming and throughout the years of trial and error...YOU my friend will be lucky enough to escape those frustrations as i will teach you short cuts..do' and don'ts..etc. when ever you would like to start honing your skills as a corsetmaker, we can do a live broadcast session when training so you can see in real time....however you want to learn

thank you Equuscustomleathers. i am trying to figure out how to upload my pic of corsets and accessories, but for some reason it wont tell me what im doing wrong,although it seemed pretty self explanitory..lol..then again, i am a true blonde. if you need anything im always avail.

thanks fellas..but im not looking to purchase a new machine since my toyota does a fine job on my corsetry as patchwork looks like will be very temp..but i still have hope that the lord will not let me faulter..slow and steady

8-O...lol..are you kidding?..haha..i am teasing ya..of course i do. i was trying to figure out how to add some earlier bit couldnt at the time so i gave up until the next visit..i have many samples of my work on my facebook page..the name is corsetfitz..

when it comes to corsets and constricting the waist there really is NO material better than leather. Theres just something about the second "skin nature". I have made myself a couple of leather corsets and with both i inserted the steel stays into channels throught the pannels..but i was wondering, does thick leathr actually have to have boning? as it feels like with the thicker leather..there is not much "give" to begin with..and if it doesnt..will it stretch over time. with the pulling of the lacing

ok, so i saw this ad on craigslist someone wanted patches put on their leather vest so i replied..long story short, here i am! i got the patches and the "brand new i might add) leather vest and today i have learnt my first lesson..there are inside pockets on this thing to which i did not realize for the 45 dollars i charged him...putting on 12 patches most are in the pocketed area. what i have opted to do was rip the lower seam open flip up the lining to expose the bare leather( hopefully making it easier to sew too), i prayed with everything i have please gid dont let me screw this mans brand new leather vest up..so now im stuck just looking at it.." did i do the right thing"?

hello from bako. i am a corsetiere seamstress that makes custom steel boned corsets in leather, fabric and vinyl. i am here to learn about others trades working with leathers as well as offer tips and tricks i have learnt over the years. thanks for having me.
