  2. I have written a thing! Everything I know about corset construction plus 10 gorgeous patterns in a corset makers' compendium. The main document alone is 14000 words. I have put it on pre sale until the end of the month for £36 and then will list it on Etsy for more. There will also be fees and VAT to pay through Etsy so grab your copy whilst it is at the redcued rate - contact me via the web form for details!
