Sewing the Amber Bunny Suit from Aranea Black for an Upcoming Cosplay

[@thecarolynmaynard]

So impressed with this project! You always inspire me to keep tackling sewing projects

Technically, the waist extension is called a basque waist, for anyone looking to deal with a "so near but still too far" mother's apron squooge

Bunny stillsuit??? Amazing! Also, I can't find a live link for the pattern anywhere, where did you find it?

[@inbarwysXD]

r/corsetry have been collecting Aranea Black's patterns ever since she closed her website

[@makinghannah]

You got it! 🏜️ It’s going to be so fun and silly - I can’t wait to share! I found the pattern years ago now, so I unfortunately don’t have any fresh links for you. But keep an eye out on Reddit - that’s where I found mine!

Seconding the bunny stillsuit! I have the same issue with overbust corsets (not made by me), they come up too high in my armpit for it to be 100% comfortable. Oh the joys of being short 😅

[@makinghannah]

Yes to the stillsuit! And boo to the high armpits in bunny suits. Definitely something I’ll have to address in future iterations!

I just found this pattern and was looking for instructions so im so glad i found ur vid !! How did u incorperate seam allowance when cutting the pattern since its not on the paper peices ?

[@makinghannah]

Amazing! I’m sure there are different ways to do it, but I chose to just go piece by piece and add a half inch seam allowance with a marker, *before* cutting out the pattern pieces.

[@hollydavenport8310]

@@makinghannah ahh okay so then the pattern had the seam allowance added in 👍👍thanks so much !!

[@hollydavenport8310]

​@makinghannah back again with another question !! For pattern piece 9 (the one in the stretch nylon fabric) where did you put it? I can't tell if it's supposed to be a lining fabric or to actually connect the front and back of the corset.
