Rainbow Ribbon Corset! Case Study | Lucy's Corsetry

My third ribbon corset overall, and my second try at the 1904 ribbon corset in the book "Corsets and Crinolines" by Norah Waugh. The pattern was modified to be 24" instead of 30". This was made with 5 meters of rainbow blanket binding fused to an interestingly thick, sturdy twill (made from 3 layers and had a different angle weave on each face). It is unlined, but if I were to make this corset again I would definitely line it. The horizontal panels (as well as the center-front and center-back panels) were print-matched. The horizontal panels were then sewn together. The busk is the first time I've inserted the loop side using buttonholes in one wide piece of fabric instead of open seams in two narrow panels. This method is fast and results in a strong panel. 12 bones not including the busk: 2 flats by the busk, 4 flats sandwiching the grommets, and 3 spirals on each side. Purple 550 paracord for the lacing. To bypass making a knot at the bottom, I just melted the two ends together with my candle.
