I have this book cause you recommended it a few months ago! ;) I mostly enjoyed it, Being a decently skilled seamstress already I found it repetative, but for learning a new craft and dimension to the world of sewing I found it made the concepts concrete. Thank you Lucy! I look forward to more from you!
@bishonenrancher I don't know if you've already bought or read this one, but the book "Corsets; Historical patterns and techniques" goes into making the flossing that can be seen on the cover of Linda Spark's book. At least it is very similar and does not seem (to someone like me who has yet to try the technique) overwhelmingly difficult. It has a lot less instructions, but it has pictures of all the corsets presented, history around them and a scaled down pattern. It is a fantastic book, imho.
Thanks for all of your wonderfully informative videos. I think I'm going to pick up this book and review it a bit before I attempt to make my first on my own.
Thank you for your review! I was trying to decide between this book, and the other one you reviewed "Corset Making" by Julia, this review helped alot! I was originally leaning more towards this one because I prefer to have a physical book, but now that i know the other one has videos incorporated into it as well as more info, I'm definitely buying the other one :)
@bishonenrancher I know the feeling, I'm working on my astronomy video, but want to get a "making of" video with funny out-takes of True Blood:The Bleeds out first.
On the basics of corset building book on chapter 5 on page 59 when she siad to add interfacing to front and back fashion pattern pieces what does she mean by that
@bishonenrancher You and me both. I love my latex and would love to get back into my 32" latex jeans. I bought a bicycle, so hopefully that will help me burn off a few calories. I hope you get the time to achieve your goals. Out of interest, what sorts cosplay should I look forward to?

You've combined almost all of my needs of a youtube channel :D

Hi Lucy, what corsetry book do you recommend for an intermediate sewer. I want to learn how to build a corset within a couture dress. Thanks.

@bishonenrancher I'm really impressed that you get so many out though. Still waiting on your Cos Play...nudge nudge ;-)
Lucy, do you think I can make a Corset by hand stitching, cause I can't use a sowing machine. Have major trouble with those machines.
OMG are you at this full time now? How do you get so many out SO quickly??
WOW Neutron star dense!
