very very well done, i am intrigued with the lacing work. seeing items like this makes me very interested in working on my lacing.

Thank you, it's really just continued practice and using the right distance for the size of your lace.

Thanks. Don't how it would be on a corset, but you definitely don't want it to become to thick. So a thinner lace than this one maybe and eventually just a double loop braid instead of a Mexican round braid. Takes less time and less braid.

Thank you. Yeah, I was thinking of something like that together with the other 11 astrological signs.

I plan on doing a Mexican round along the upper edge using roo lace very soft lace and yeah the double loop takes way less time, also planning on doing a gaucho lacing along the seams or at least that is the plan running around in my head currently for the next corset I make.

Just noticed you are in Australia. Of course roo, what else? I wish it would be affordable here in Germany. I'd be using roo only. I don't know what gaucho lacing is, but it sure looks nice. I like lacing a lot it just takes so horribly long. Wonder if it would look good on yokes for a pair of chaps.

here is a video I stumbled across on the gaucho lacing I am using it more for looks then support so it might look good on a pair of chaps
