There hasn't been much sewing lately at our residence. Jul 5th, 2015 at 5:30 PM. But I made a corset a while back so I might as well show it to you. It's black one layer coutil corset with external boning channels. I'm not thrilled with it, but at least it's a step towards getting back in to sewing. 1880s black coutil corset v2.0. 13 comments Leave a comment. Jul 5th, 2015 03:11 pm (UTC). It's so unbelievably gorgeous! So are you, by the way! Jul 5th, 2015 04:17 pm (UTC). Jul 5th, 2015 05:58 pm (UTC).
