Making a Bridgerton inspired corset (drafting and handsewing process)

So I went on a Bridgerton Binge when the season 2 came out….
And made a pair of short stays in the process!

00:00 Intro
00:23 Measurements
00:34 Construction
01:55 Materials
02:12 Cutting the pieces
02:28 Basting
03:31 Boning Channels
05:37 Seams
06:40 Bias Tape
10:21 Lacing Holes
12:34 Reveal
12:49 Outro



I share the complete process of drafting the stays, so you can do the same with your own measurements. Yay!
If you follow along, let me know, it would be super exciting to see your results. And if there are any questions, let me know!

Follow along as I revisit my favourite scenes while trying to keep calm with the hand sewing. It took me roughly 25 hours to finish those stays by hand completely. Demanding, but also really gratifying. I just love making things by hand, so relaxing!

Although it really took forever to finish the edges with the bias tape..
