I've used embroidery thread to stitch around metal eyelets to great success before! Loading four strands on a needle and stitching in circles until no metal is left seems to work very well (and relatively quickly), plus it also helps prevent the fabric ripping that you sometimes get with metal eyelets! As an added bonus, with embroidery thread there's a million different colours to choose from, which sounds like it'd work great with what you have planned :)

Hello, I'm so confused by the sizing. I fall in between the two packets available so it's always a headache trying to figure out whether to go higher or lower. My measurements are closest to 14 if I go by my bust measurement. Waist goes higher than that, to like a 16 or so. I keep seeing other people say that these stays were not the right size when they went by the measurements on the back. But here they are saying that they went by their measurements on the packet. I would love to know if anyone has any advice about this. I don't like sizing a pattern up or down myself when it could have been avoided.

What I think you should do is take the amounts and put them on each piece in divided portions. Like for each panel and the inches spread throughout each piece of the stays. So at 44inches +6 with a 6 panel patters per side would be 1 inch at the bust line so on so forth. Im not a teacher but watch that channel over and over she is good .

That would depend on how you're going to use this. She's using it as underwear for a historical costume, so it's likely made of tightwoven cotton. If you want to use it as outwear for a Ren Faire, you'll likely want to look at tapestry and upholstery fabrics. Satin or silk woukd be fine to, but you'd need to make it four layers I'd think, two inner cotton layers for the boning, the lining against your skin would likely want to be cotton as well, with the decorative satin/silk fabric on the outside.

I live the USA but, I went online to corsetmaking.com to buy my coutil for my stays. I believe that they ship to Austraila. Hope that helps. :)

Kinda funny that back then stays are meant to be worn inside your cloth. But they do a lot better when they’re out. I seen these sometime in anime. I been wondering what that outfit is called. I just found out the name just by chance. Anyways I find stays pretty cute.

Stays and corsets are today's equivalent to bras, no one in those days (much like today) would go outside in their underwear. 😂 The shift/chemise is the equivalent to an undershirt/panties.

It's actually a petticoat, not a skirt. She explains why she's wearing the stays over the petticoat at 0:34 and demonstrates with the thumbnail at 0:45

Tu est fort belle de chez belle avec le corset Attention au coiffeur tondeur-teinturier, et pire encor le tatoueur le pire ennemi de ta beauté..
