I've not been around for a while

Wed Jul 8, 2009, 11:33 PM
My apologies to those of you who are watching and have been favourite-ing my work. I have been on the busy side of things and haven't been able to come to DA as much as I used to.

Just to update you all on current circumstances and things.

I'm still taking corset commissions and I have set up an Etsy: [link]

I've not had time to have a photoshoot and I'm still working on samples.

I have two baby guinea pigs, which are eating up more of my time than I thought they would.

My books are open again to brides, now I've finally got it all sorted out!

I hope everyone on DA is ok, and please accept my apologies for slacking on the thank-you's and favourties and things. I still love you all dearly and wish I could be around more.

Up goes the cost of making corsets

Mon May 4, 2009, 11:22 AM
I recently found a coutil supplier that was selling cotton coutil for half the cost I usually pay. Hurrah! Brilliant! That means I can pass those savings onto my lovely clients. But alas, my dear Watson, Busks have gone up in price, grommets have gone up in price, and one of my silk suppliers has gone up in price.

Annoying, isn't it?

Hopefully having a photoshoot with :iconeclipse-of-faith: at the end of May, and I had every intention of making 9 whole new corsets for it. 9 new corsets and two wedding gowns. But oh no. Due to having money stolen from my account, I had to put a lot of postage costs (which have also gone up-by the way) on my credit card. Which has subsequently gone over it's limit and now I have to pay charges on that too.

I am not a happy bunny on the money front. As fast as it comes in these days, it seems to still be going out at the same rate.

The only way to fix this is to triple my prices. Which I don't want to do.

Sometimes, I astound myself

Tue Apr 21, 2009, 1:24 AM
You know when you're having a really crap day/week/month and even your lovely partner can't cheer you up. I was having one of those. Until I started making patterns again! I used to hate it, now I love it.

My latest pattern is for a long line overbust, mainly because I want to start wearing corsets but find overbusts unbearable (with having no boobs and lots of ribs) so I thought I'd experiment. And I'm long in the body too so I took that into consideration, and I have a bit of a belly, because my dad keeps buying me chocolate!!! Yes I'm blaming everyone but myself, I can't say no to chocolate and they know this.

So I thought of the long line overbust, made a pattern, made a mock-up ([link] scroll down and you'll see it) and I am now not going to take the mock-up off until I have the real deal to wear. It's so comfortable and I'm loving the lack of love handles! I have room to cinch further too, (so far I've taken two inches off with two to go).

I'm just loving it. I'm going to develop this pattern further... Good job I'm not going to Sams today because I am super motivated to make mock-ups....
