I did my first pair of completely handsewn stays a few months ago, without a mockup because 1. too lazy and 2. couldn't afford to waste material and although I love it, and I'm super proud of myself for doing it and all the blood sweat and tears that went into it (literally) I'm sooo mad that I didn't do a mockup because the flaps end just above my belly button due to my freakishly long upper body lol
Yours came out so incredibly beautiful! Makes me want to try it again (with a mockup this time lmao)
I totally get that you skipped the mock-up! I did this with my first stays as well, because mock-ups just take so much time and you just want to get to the real thing already... So don't feel bad for not making a mock-up! This was my third or fourth time making a pair of stays, so I had some experience with ill-fitting stays already, so I knew I had to make that mock-up. But I always say, every piece of clothing you make is worth it because of all the lessons you learn from it and the experience you gain from it. Each piece you make allows you to make a better piece next time. It is awesome to see when you look back how far you've come!
Absolutely beautiful work. Well done.

Hi! Thank you for your kind comment :)
@@mrsjrochester Not a problem. Look forward to seeing the rest of the ensemble
.
Lovely work, I’ve only gotten as far as cutting one out for a mockup. I hope mine turns out half that nice 😊
It took me a long while to make this one as well!
Het eindresultaat is erg mooi en past je goed. Wat een werk hè? En dan ook nog een CZcams filmpje ervan maken… knap gedaan.
Dankjewel voor je lieve reactie! Het heeft me wel even tijd gekost om alles te filmen, maar het is ook leuk om het proces terug te kijken!
@@mrsjrochester bedankt voor het delen.
😍 gorgeous!!!
Thank you! 😄
