That ribbon paired perfectly with the corset! I also agree that it looks better with the laces in the front, but it’s nice that you can just switch it up depending on your mood. We love options 👌

I love the moss green, it’s a gorgeous color. I agree it’s a great transition color between seasons. It is absolutely gorgeous both ways but I think I prefer the lacing on the back more. I think the tying of the lace around to the front is so cute!

It's adorable & that blouce is perfect? I like the front closure best. Pinning on the bows is a great option because you can take them off along with the ribbon lacing when you want to wash it. It looks like the center front closure needs some understructure. I would recommend a woven binding tape or gograin ribbon, maybe some of that lacing ribbon, if you have enuf. Fold it over the edge & hand sew it on, hit with a steam iron. This should help straighten out the wonky edge too.

I think the corset is lovely. I was surprised to see that you were making a corset because I was thinking about doing the same. When I initially glanced at your video, I thought it was a tutorial, and I was thinking how convenient. Maybe I can try to free hand a corset too. I wanted to make one because my son invited me to a Renaissance Faire and quite a few of the costume ideas for a Ren Faire use corsets. Nice work!

Most of the time, if you use a chain to bring up the yarn for the next row, it will make your edge super wonky like that. Try using a stacked SC and it will greatly improve your edges!
