Civil War Corset, anyone? pic heavy

I made this corset for me and it ended up being too large. I finished this in May just before memorial day and wore it to one reenactment, and it was surprisingly comfortable. I'm in the middle of making a second corset, and I'm trying to sell this one. If anyone knows anybody with a 34-36 inch waist that needs a good corset, lol.

Busk eye and knobs are set through the coutil and all grommets for lacing are covered. Lacing in back is reinforced with boning on both sides. Size: Modern size 14, B cup, fits waist 34-36 inches. Designed for the fleshier woman while achieving amazing comfort. Pattern: Homespun Patterns W-008 (Front Fastening Corset).

Overall appearance of the corset. The hip panels appear wavy because the dress form does not have the twice-blessed/thrice-cursed hips and backside many women have. This corset on a person looks much more sleek:

The busk is inserted between the coutil and the lining, so that only the eyes and knobs are exposed. The busk is 11.5 inches long and has five fastenings.

The lacing is arranged so that you never have to untie it in the back. The lacing is threaded properly and the excess lacing is drawn from the waist, to achieve the best results. This means this corset need never be unlaced in any way -- merely untied. Grommet holes are covered with thread to prevent the catching of the lacing, fashion fabric, or undergarments on the metal.

The edges of the corset are covered in 100% cotton twill tape. This material also covers the inside seam on the hip gusset. This technique creates decorative stitching on the exterior.

Absolutely everything about this corset can be seen at my website (see link in sig) in the past projects and sell page. This post is actually a large portion of the sell page, but not all of it..
