ABSTRACT

Use the diagram as a guide when drawing in your bone channels, these are 0.8cm wide with bones that are 0.6cm wide. If you wish you can use a 1cm wide bone channel with a 0.7cm wide bone. At the centre back there is a central eyelet channel that is 1.3cm wide on both sides for lacing up the corset. The original corset has two wide bones on Panel 2; these have been replaced with two narrower bones as wider bones are not always available. The front panel has a busk channel that is 1.3cm wide and rows of top stitching.
