Waist Cincher Corset in a Day! (25) All Levels
Waist Cincher Corset in a Day with Linda Sparks at Creativ Festival
Corsets are not just for stage productions anymore. They’re fun, funky and totally wearable! Bring a fashion fabric that speaks your personal style and we’ll have you using a commercial pattern, coutil, special boning and grommets as you make a waist cincher for yourself. Be personally fit by Linda, then adjust your pattern to match the alterations (so you can use it again without a fitting). There is no busk in this corset so it’s faster to make and really showcases your printed fabric, be it vintage, funky or themed (Sci-fi, Disney or Vogue)! Plus, Linda shares tips for motif placement and ideas for further embellishment. Supply List & Kit $55
6 Hour Workshop – Sat 9:00 to 4:00
