Silk Corset

Just finishing up with the silk corset, not sure what's taking longer, the knitting or the sewing of buttons. Preliminary try-ons show this is a very fitted item for me and damn, I've got big hips. You'll have to be someone special to get a private viewing, eh? More pics to come when completely finished. The yarn is form Tess Desinger Yarns, half silk half wool in pale pink, buttons are round pearls in pale pink form Tender Buttons on the La-Di-Da shopping area on Oak St. here in Chicago. And if you know me at all it shouldn't surprise you that I've re-inforced the buttons by hand stitching in matching pink ribbon and pink silk thread a stabilizer in back, plus baby buttons to top it all off. It's all in the details right?
