Setting a Corset Busk with Redthreaded

Here’s how we set our corset busks. We’ve removed the complicated underlap step from our commercial patterns, resulting in a much simpler process. They’re not scary, we promise!

Could you show a tutorial of using both fashion fabric and its lining using busks?

Hi....please tell me you repair? Because i like how you install your busk. No other company does it like that, even when i ask them to install the busk that way, they wont. I have informed them that the way they install their front busk, the corset can't be used for tight lacing, even though they say you can. Well i dont tight lace, but i do wear it snug. The front busk came out, which i knew at some point it would, but no one repairs corset. I tried repairing it by hand, which worked, but again both front busk came out. But I know if my corset was repaired by the way you put your busk in, it would not bust out again. The only thing that was holding my busk in was stitching, and to me that makes no sense. Please let me know???? Help????

What marking tool do you use? I’m struggling to find one that won’t leave a permanent mark.

Ok. I bought your 1880s Vic pattern and am working on the 1st mockup - never made a corset before and have no real life examples to go off. This video really does not help. Maybe I am just not real bright but I can't see what you are talking about. You already say you sewed the Busk Facing on and ironed it, but wait, what? How? And the written instructions show very unhelpful photos of white on white on white (Same with the video). Can't see what you are doing half the time so its very hard to follow along for a beginner. Going to try and find some other tutorial for this and just fumble this thing together in the hopes I can just get it to work. >_
